Le dernier métro

I have given the French New Wave more chances than Earl Weaver gave Mike Cuellar

Rating: 5 out of 10

Recommended instead: La nuit américaine, which may be superficially similar (behind the scenes of a movie instead of a play) but is a much more nimble work, not being laden down with period pieceness and Gérard Depardieu.

Kevin Kellam correctly commented that my Top 10 of the 00s was much more a personal "what I like" statement than the 11-99, which was less idiosyncratic.  You're absolutely right.
