In film in the same sort of category, top of the list for me is "Birth of a Nation."

1915 movie that rebirthed the Klan, which had been successfully killed off in the 1880s.

Unfortunately, it is also a landmark movie in the technical sense.

Thankee Susanna. I mentioned this title to M and he knew about it and says the experimental tinting was edging the film industry forward.

Why The Fountainhead and not Atlas Shrugged? Atlas was like getting dragged in the mud with a burlap bag over my head. The Fountainhead was filled with Objectivism, of course, but Atlas is a just a shredder.

You could add The Fountainhead; it's easy to add books to lists. At the top of the list, at the tab next to "all votes."
