Lists By Year Number of votes in annual Film Daily poll
The Results of this poll are directly from The Film Daily annual poll that asked newspapers around the nation to submit a top 10 list. Films have been recategorized to U.S. release dates, as the poll often took place prior to year-end.
The Film Daily Poll mentioned that early years allowed films to receive multiple votes from the same critic.
