1. Ordet
Only seen 3, but gotta give some love to Ordet: one of my all-time favs, probably the best movie ever made about religion that I'm aware of.
I probably love Passion of Joan of Arc too but I haven't seen it many years (and don't have the voting space for it anyway)

To please the majority is the requirement of the Planet Cinema. As far as I'm concerned, I don't make a concession to viewers, these victims of life, who think that a film is made only for their enjoyment, and who know nothing about their own existence.
this was a close one, without wba's ballot there would have been a tie for 1st. and it seems fair to say that any winner other than the passion of joan of arc would be a bit of a surprise, so... we have a surprise winner! and a surprise in 2nd place too i guess.
only two of dreyer's feature length films didn't get a vote - his first film, the president (1919) and two people (1945), which he later disowned (but i thought it was a good film even if dreyer didn't).
results
1. Day of Wrath (1943) -- 38 pts
2. Ordet (1955) -- 37 pts
3. The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928) -- 34 pts
4. Vampyr (1932) -- 29 pts
5. Gertrud (1963) -- 25 pts
6. The Parson's Widow (1920) -- 12 pts
7. They Caught the Ferry (1948) -- 7 pts
8. The Bride of Glomdal (1926) -- 6 pts
9. Master of the House (1925) -- 4 pts
9. Love One Another (1922) -- 4 pts
11. Leaves From the Book of Satan (1921) -- 3 pts
12. Once Upon a Time (1922) -- 2 pts
13. Michael (1924) -- 1 pt

Nice. I has a tough time deciding between the top two and left off Joan, so I'm pretty happy with the result.
Don't like Joan, so it's ok with me.

crap. forgot to vote. but it looks like my votes wouldn't have made any diff anyways. i'm glad gertrud at least made the top five
i'd still count a ballot that came in today, and it might matter if others vote today too
gertrud
the passion of joan of arc
*seen four (thought for a second there that i could cause some havoc and make ordet my number two, but joan is just so good, even tho falconetti infuriatingly never blinks)
