This weekend, the American Film Institute released its list of Top Ten Films. Unlike most lists created by the AFI, the selections chosen for this annual category are not ranked - they are simply presented in alphabetical order.

Since the 13-person jury only considers movies with “significant creative and/or production elements from the United States,” critical fave Slumdog Millionaire was not in the running. Meanwhile, Revolutionary Road and The Reader - both Golden Globe nominees - simply weren’t included.

• The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
• The Dark Knight
• Frost/Nixon
• Frozen River
• Gran Torino
• Iron Man
• Milk
• Wall•E
• Wendy and Lucy
• The Wrestler
