grammatical number - It's one of the best [plural noun] that + has (or) have



In the sentence




It's one of the best films that has/have ever been made





What should the verb agreement be?


Answer



It's plural "have".



A useful way to prove that a plural verb is correct is to front the preposition phrase:



"Of the best films that have ever been made, it's one of them."




NOT "Of the best films that has ever been made, it's one of them."
