Sphinx on the Seine by Paul Clipson, K-CoreaINC.K (section a) by Ryan Trecartin and Plato’s Atlantis by Alexander McQueen are not currently listed on IMDb. All three are at the time of writing freely available online to view.

The films mentioned here are from the "Editors' Choice" lists, these were mostly top 10s but some naughty people snuck some more in. There were 4 movies in the "20 Best Unreleased Films of 2009" list that weren't in any of the Editors' Choice list, I have appended these at the end of the list.

The individual ballots that made up the "20 Best Films of 2009" and "20 Best Unreleased Films of 2009" were unpublished. All those 40 movies are in this list. They were chosen by "100 North American colleagues" each asked for a top 20.
