I surely would have voted for Cold Water if I'd thought about it as being new...not disagreeing; I just didn't realize I was seeing a re-release (or whatever) when I saw it last year (first in a theatre, then again on DVD a few weeks later). Top three or four.

Biggest absence = Cold War? I thought it was just OK, and not as good as Ida, but made most other Top Ten type lists.

sic, thank you for your service

50 Can You Ever Forgive Me? 16.333 (6 votes)

Perfect.

sic, can we get a list or link for #51-222?

didn't vote, probably would have voted Death of Stalin, Blackkklansman, Sorry to Bother You, The Favourite, Mandy, First Reformed, IoD, Bear 2, have to figure out the rest.

had no idea First Reformed was so highly regarded, not having been exactly blown away by anything Schrader or fuckin Ethan Hawke has done in like... 20 years?

I mean Dog Eat Dog was *insane* but idk if it was that good

it's a double comeback

xp

you can buy/rent The Image Book on youtube

I see these as available on Kanopy: First Reformed, Eighth Grade, Hereditary, Leave No Trace, Madeline's Madeline, Faces Places, Mid90s, McQueen

Hawke has been in plenty of good/interesting things in that period

i mean yeah Hawke was in Boyhood

44 Bros: After The Screaming Stop – Not Currently Available for Subscription Streaming

Ned's link still works for €3.99

lol if i had voted it would've just reinforced the positions of mandy and first reformed

two movies i straight up hated that placed: annihilation and hereditary

had no idea First Reformed was so highly regarded, not having been exactly blown away by anything Schrader or fuckin Ethan Hawke has done in like... 20 years?

various artists directed Crazy Rich Asians?

various asians

the most compelling theme of the movie to me was the depiction of banal oppression (as opposed to histrionic, crushing oppression) of life under colonial rule

I compared it to "burmese days" after seeing it, so I think this is an excellent description

35mm/65mm/helmet/phone

misremembered: there's one shot on SLR, not phone

thought Bisbee '17 was an interesting story about the 1917 deportation of copper mine workers in southern Arizona after a strike

and about the difficulty reconciling collective memory.
