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.

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.
