only seen once relatively recently on an old DVD on a very much not hi-def TV on a family holiday in Cornwall. Still thought it was pretty stunning and lived up to everything I’d heard about it, fantastic balance of the childlike fable parts and the adult horror

was right in that 50-75 zone for me, could easily have deserved points but needs a rewatch in better conditions to solidify it as a fav for me. Also if I’d seen it when I was younger I could imagine it being a Very Important Film for my tastes and development as a film guy

It’d make it a lot less shite

Good film, wouldn’t touch even a top 100 for me, let alone 50. But it has been a long time since I saw it, so who know if i’d still like it now.

Similar, remember being pretty impressed with it visually when it first came out but havent seen it in so long I’m not sure what I think about it anymore really

think there’s two huge hitters duking it out for top spot, then a DiS-core fav one I think could get no. 3

then Parasite, imho

2290

The Banshees Of Inisherin - really good, deserved all the plaudits it got, excellent dynamic between the main two and probably the best Barry Keoghan performance (or equal with American Animals). Not near my top 50 though

Spider-Man into the Spider verse - stunning piece of work, as good as animation has ever been imho. Literally took my breath away at times. And just a really good version of this story that manages not to feel reheated and boring after how many diff versions we’ve had over the years. My no. 24, though the first Raimi one got up to my no. 17 I think

Get Out - great stuff, but needs a rewatch as I think I’m affected by The Narrative and impact of this one more than its qualities as a film in its own right. But clearly good and Important to modern cinema

Memento - fuck yeah, best Nolan by far to this day and one of the best uses of non-linear storytelling. Actually felt justified and like it added to the film (even on rewatches) rather than just being a gimmick. To get peak Pearce and Pantoliano and once is chef’s kiss. My no. 9

Shaun of The Dead - funny, haven’t seen in ages, would like a rewatch. Dylan Moran is the best part of it

Let The Right One In - weirdly underwhelmed by this, never got the acclaim. May need a rewatch

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon - remember it fondly as a great time and spectacle. Was well over 10 years ago though so it’s pretty hazy

The Raid - hell yeah, what a great action flick. Pretty flawless for what it is

Tár - Really good stuff, standout film of that year for me. Exactly what I want from arty-but-accessible stuff, bold funny highbrow silly. The scene with her stomping around with the accordion to piss off the neighbours is great.

I’m very happy Michelle got an Oscar for EEAAO (good performance and probs lifetime recognition as well) but Cate should have run away with it for me, astonishing perfectly engrossing character. Loved loved the ending and how you could read it as a failure or as freedom. Just snuck into my list as my no. 50

Almost Famous - just just missed my list, in my top 55 maybe. Just a great coming of age story with a big cast of characters you’re rooting for, shaggy hangout vibes, heart, love for the art form. A ball, could see this being the favourite film of another version of me
