Following on 2021, just calling it now. Still a bunch I want to see from last year, but I have to get this done.
"I perceive value, I confer value, I create value, I even create — or guarantee — existence. Hence, my compulsion to make “lists.” The things (Beethoven’s music, movies, business firms) won’t exist unless I signify my interest in them by at least noting down their names.” -Susan Sontag

Best films of 2022
Best films of 2021
I... obviously found this impossible, because it FEELS like with lockdown, I should have seen all the films on my watchlist. I did not. I was STILL hoping to see Riders of Justice tonight, but ended up working till 9p. But we're drawing a line in the sand. I'm sure I'll keep watching a few I need to see over the next few months.
Past Years: 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009
It feels like there's a strong theme in here. Three very meta films, one with a meta sequence that makes me cry, and a couple playing with storytelling.
The rest of the pretty posters here.
