January 2018 Archives

Whenever I see a movie, and I typically see about 100 per year in cinemas, I make a note of it and jot down a "score" from 0 to 100 based on what I thought of the movie.

Based on that list, here are the top 15 movies of 2017 for me personally. I love how most of them will not be recognizable, and they don't include any big Hollywood films. These top fifteen, in no particular order, just were the most interesting/moving/profound/worthwhile/fun/deep/whatever:

• I AM NOT YOUR NEGRO
• PERSONAL SHOPPER
• CITIZEN JANE
• THE UNKNOWN GIRL
• EX LIBRIS
• I CALLED HIM MORGAN
• LETTER FROM BAGHDAD
• GET OUT
• COLUMBUS
• MARSHALL
• MOLLY'S GAME
• WORMWOOD
• SLAVA (GLORY)
• SOUL ON A STRING
• THE DEATH OF KING LOUIS XIV
