My Top 5 Movies of 2017
5.
The Beguiled: kind of a distant 5th at this point; I'm still catching up on most of the good ones and would assume this falls out (but based on
score, I'll leave it here).
4.
Brigsby Bear: a rare treat where the audacity of a wacky premise is equaled by the strength of performers/execution.
3.
Nathan for You: Finding Frances: not technically a "movie" but who cares! This feature length piece is one of the most original things I've seen in awhile.
2.
Phantom Thread: PTA continues his reign as the best filmmaker in the world right now; my podcast review is forthcoming.
1.
Lady Bird: a classic.
