Siskel and Ebert Top Ten List Films that Overlapped

Regardless of your personal feelings of them individually, when the late Gene Siskel and his colleague Roger Ebert agreed on films, they were always worth watching. When they agreed on films enough to both include them in their year end top ten lists, they were something else.

Here are all the films that overlapped by appearing on the top ten lists of both Siskel and Ebert between the years of 1969 and 1998.

Films are ordered by which year's list they appeared on, which is typically the year they were released theatrically in the U.S.
