Let’s Start the Campaign to Add ‘Paradise Lost’ to the National Film Registry | Documentary Channel

Every year, the Library of Congress‘s National Film Preservation Board selects 25 films for the National Film Registry. And they encouragingly invite the American public to help them pick out the most deserving titles. These are cinematic works of any sort from any time between the dawn of motion pictures to ten years prior to the year of addition (so currently 2003 releases are the most recent qualifying), films that will be preserved because they are “deemed culturally, historically or aesthetically significant” and are ”of enduring importance to American culture. They reflect who we are as a people and as a nation.”
