Ryan Godfrey played with IMDB data to come up with a list of the 250 best movies of all time.

A silent classic, A Trip to the Moon (1902), tops Godfrey’s list with Humphrey Bogart’s Casablanca coming in at No. 2.

Godfrey, a project manager at Langhorne-based Hybrid Software, spent a few years as City Paper’s webmaster.
