Best of 2022
And here we are! After removing some films from the running because I didn't finish them or I'd seen them several times before, I ended up with a list of 212 films on the year. These are the top 100 of those 212. Today and throughout the week I'll post about the top 10 individually, and the bottom ten [203-212] to talk about what made them both my most and least favorite films of the year.
There's been some handy surprises throughout 2022, some very hard letdowns, and some films that will stay with me for a very, very long time. Thanks for tuning in, and I look forward to doing it all over again!
