Hello there!
It's been a while since I made a list of my favourite films, and I've meant to update my previous one for ages now. So for the last two months, I've been painstakingly constructing this new Top 200 - coincidentally, having recently logged 2000 entries on Letterboxd.
However, there was a caveat to this new list. I deliberately restricted myself to things that I had seen at least twice. I couldn't consider a film a favourite until I had re-watched it. And so I compiled my choices based on that criteria, and initially came up with... 186. Far too few.
Consequently, I've bent my rule to accommodate: if I rated a film five stars in 2020 or 2021,…
Hello there!
It's been a while since I made a list of my favourite films, and I've meant to update my previous one for ages now. So for the last two months, I've been painstakingly constructing this new Top 200 - coincidentally, having recently logged 2000 entries on Letterboxd.
However, there was a caveat to this new list. I deliberately restricted myself to things that I had seen at least twice. I couldn't consider a film a favourite until I had re-watched it. And so I compiled my choices based on that criteria, and initially came up with... 186. Far too few.
Consequently, I've bent my rule to accommodate: if I rated a film five stars in 2020 or 2021, then it was eligible. And thus I was able to include the following twelve selections:
Twentieth Century, Only Angels Have Wings, His Girl Friday, Coming Home, The Deer Hunter, Apocalypse Now, Being There, Do the Right Thing, Malcolm X, Ali, Apocalypto, and First Man.
A few extra re-watches later, and here's the final list. My Top 200, as of publishing. As before, these are listed year-by-year, and then alphabetically. And also as before, I will attempt to add another favourite every time I log ten more flicks on LB.
Should you be kind enough to peruse through this behemoth, I hope you enjoy it.
