‘Iron Man,’ John Waters’ ‘Hairspray,’ Brian De Palma’s ‘Carrie’ Among 2022 Film Registry Inductees
The MCU has reached the National Film Registry. The Library of Congress has announced the 25 American films selected for preservation in the archive this year. Among them is Jon Favreau’s “Iron Man,” the first entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The list of films was announced Wednesday by Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden. Aside from “Iron Man,” other notable films in the list include the 1950 film version of “Cyrano de Bergerac,” Frederick Wiseman’s “Titicut Follies,” the classic blaxploitation film “Super Fly,” Brian De Palma’s Stephen King adaptation “Carrie,” John Water’s “Hairspray,” Disney animated musical “The Little Mermaid,” Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal’s rom-com “When Harry Met Sally,” and teen comedy film “House Party.”
The oldest film on the list is 1898’s “Mardi Gras Carnival,” a footage reel of the New Orleans celebration that was recently discovered in the Netherlands after being lost for decades. The most recent — all films are only eligible for consideration after they’ve been released for 10 years — is 2011’s “Pariah” from Dee Rees, a coming-of-age story of a Black lesbian teenager. This year’s selection brings the number of films in the registry up to 850.

With House Party making the cut, I have a feeling that next year is Goodburger's year.
