The National Film Registry is the name of films preserved by the U.S. government at the Library of Congress. Around the end of each year, the Library selects 25 inductees that are culturally or artistically significant to the U.S. The next is this year's list, bringing the sum to about 525 films. The "films" can be feature films, short films, student films, even home movies (Disneyland Dream, the home movies of a family's trip to California in the fifties is one of the 525).
