From Gladiator to All the President’s Men, historians nominate their best historical movies – and voting is open on HistoryExtra.com to find the people’s favourite.

One of the UK’s leading history websites HistoryExtra.com (the home of BBC History Magazine and the HistoryExtra podcast) is on a search to find the greatest historical movie of all time.

Twenty-two of Britain’s leading historians were challenged by HistoryExtra.com to nominate what they considered to be the best historical movies ever made and give their reasons. The results have been compiled into a list of the top 100, and now voting is open so people can rank their favourites from Titanic to Lawrence of Arabia.
