Every year, the Librarian of Congress names 25 motion pictures that are at least 10 years old and register as “culturally, historically or aesthetically” significant.
Turner Classic Movies will host a television special on Dec. 27 at 8 p.m. ET to screen a selection of motion pictures named to the registry this year. This year’s selections date back 124 years with 1898’s “Mardi Gras Carnival” and include entries as recent as Dee Rees’ 2011 indie drama “Pariah.” Among 2022’s choices, at least 15 films were directed or co-directed by filmmakers of color, women or LGBTQ+ filmmakers. This year’s lineup brings the number of films in the registry to 850, many of which are among the 1.7 million films in the Library’s collections.
He adds, “All of our favorite movies are the ones that we watch over and over again and that we grow up with. The notion that here we are, almost 15 years after the release of ‘Iron Man,’ and to have it join the Film Registry tells us it has stood the test of time and that it is still meaningful to audiences around the world.”
So happy about IronMan. 💛❤ Great movie with a huge impact on MCU and superhero films in general. Good to see it's cultural impact being recognized by Library of Congress.
