best films of the year
ok, let's get this started. i'm working on my top 10 list of 2005 and trying to figure out what's what. here's where i need your help. since i don't get to go to press screenings or whatever, i usually miss a couple of films and look like an idiot when it takes me 3 years to see them. so, what do i absolutely need to see before i finish my list?
i've seen the following notables: King Kong Syriana Saraband (the last bergman film) Walk the Line Crash Pride & Prejudice Millions Broken Flowers Good Night, And Good Luck The constant gardener Proof Sin City and maybe a couple others (and some real rubbish) so, other than stuff that hasn't come out yet (i.e. Munich) what am i missing? |

Re: best films of the year
King Kong- A-
Syriana- B Saraband- haven't seen Walk the Line- A Crash- A+ Pride & Prejudice- C+ Millions- A+ Broken Flowers- B+ Good Night, And Good Luck- B The constant gardener- C- Proof- B- Sin City- B EDIT: i am really anticipating Munich. some are saying its SS's masterpiece which says a ton, we shall see. my favorite movie of the year has been crash. oh and even though this will not be the view of most i really liked History of Violence and think it should be on the list...it was on AFI's top 10 list which is usually the benchmark for top 10 lists. one more thing...i am really waiting for woody allen's new movie with scarlett johanssen... |

Brokeback Mountain, Oldboy, The Baxter, The Squid and the Whale, Sympathy For Mr. Vengeance, Palindromes, Hidden, 2046, Me and You and Everyone We Know, and 3-Iron are the 10 best I've seen so far.
The New World is the best film I haven't seen yet, and probably will be #1. |

It captures the Buddhism thing he was doing in Spring Summer, but places it in a context where the story is more arresting, as opposed to the preachy (if likable) visuals of Spring... |
