Ancient Egypt is one of the most filmed subjects in documentary, and one of the most unevenly made. The collection below skips the speculative reconstructions and gathers the films that stay close to the archaeology: the tombs, the hieroglyphs, the excavations and the scholars who read them. From Tutankhamun and the pyramids to daily life along the Nile, these are the 100 we would point a curious viewer to first.
