Every year, the Library of Congress inducts 25 movies into the National Film Registry that it considers to be "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."
This year, the LOC picked 25 new movies to join the list, including three made since 1990.
That means there are now (only) 57 movies made since 1990 that the LOC has deemed worthy of making the list.
So let's take a look at these 57 movies because I think you'll be surprised by some of them...
