Yep, I'm behind the curve here. It's March and I'm posting about my faves from last year. I've been preoccupied. But looking at my Netflix history, I came up with a list. I won't call this a "Best Of" because it's not films released that year, but films I watched. For example, "Annie Hall" is in my Top 10 of the year.
Regardless, here's my Top 5, in no particular order.
"A Single Man" - Tom Ford's first outing as a director? Lovely. Colin Firth - actor of his generation.
"The Ghost Writer" - A twisting Polanski thriller. Brosnan an underrated actor and much more than Bond. McGregor always tasty!
"The Kids Are Alright" - Yep, Annette Bening is that good. Juianne Moore is no slouch either. And Mark Ruffalo shirtless is a bonus!
"An Education" - Wonderfully sad. Carey Mulligan is a dream. Mr. Sarsgaard is great, walking a fine line of wonder and sleaze.
"Up in the Air" - Clooney: I'm in the minority here and not a huge fan. But in this movie, he's delicate, introspective, and wonderful. Me likey!
