I've seen 90% of this, except Female Trouble, Superfuzz, Xanadu and Don Camillo.

To reply to my own blog post, I've asked myself the follow question:

 

"Will I recognize these movies by looking only at a single iconic frame?"

 

In my mind, I imagined an iconic image from each movie: the shadow of Nosferatu walking up stairs, the female robot in Metropolis, the monster in Frankenstein, King Kong at the top of the skyscraper, Chaplin being pushed around giant gears, etc.
