i was wondering what he was doing now, and now i know, yay
Oh hey, you're right! Isn't that clever and nice? :)
Anyone else feel like they're just sat on a sofa with a cup of tea and an old friend taking about movies during these videos? It's so comforting in such an uncomfortable time
Fully agree
i genuinely look forward to this video every year. sammy your passion for films makes me so excited about this art form, and you always introduce me to new films that i would never have heard of, while also so eloquently putting into words exactly how i feel about some that were also my favorite (the worst person in the world more specifically lol). thank you so much for sharing and i can't wait for next year's list!!!
here's the list!
10. *mad god* (trippy basement stop--motion horror)
9. *the reason i jump* (documentary of the non-verbal autistic experience)
8. *flee* (animated documentary of an afghani refugee's story, gut-wrenching)
7. *power of the dog* (jane campion's western, cinematic and slow with a twist)
6. *spencer* (biographical with an intimate approach, 'fable from a true tragedy *we love to love k stewart)
5. *titane* (? the less you know the better apparently, but wholesome horror is what i gathered?)
4. *the worst person the world* (life-story of a woman grappling with her flaws)
3. *the humans* (multi-genre family drama, thoughtful, moving; 'quiet beauty and crushing pain of existence')
2. *mass* (dealing with the aftermath of a tragedy, great screenplay, single location, unsettling and beautiful)
1. *'c'mon, c'mon* (optimistic, hug-of-a-movie, found family kind of, quietly profound)
hon. mentions: the souvenir 2, west side story, licorice pizza, the rescue, the french dispatch, red rocket, anette, the green knight

I look forward to this video of yours every year. Not ONE time have I seen a single one of these movies. I still enjoy it, because while I'm NOT a cinemaphile, I just love a good story. And I love how much YOU love these films. BLESS
I watched C’mon c’mon on a random Thursday evening and I was literally the only person in the whole theater, which was nice in a way because I got to cry my eyes out with nobody around, but it also made me sad because it made me realize how few people were going to go out and watch this beautiful film. It was #2 on my list for the year behind Inside, and I actually applauded aloud in my apartment when you announced it as your #1.
Im so SO glad for the C'mon C'mon love. I've barely seen any talk about it and I adored it.
i know you said biopics aren't really your thing butttt Andrew Garfields portrayal and commitment to the role of Johnathan Larson is, alone, deserving of a mention for Tick Tick Boom. I'm glad he was able to be recognised by the Baftas and the academy as I feel he truly does deserve it.
absolutely agree, it was an amazing film
I LOVE to see The Humans get such a deserved shout-out! It's such a spectacular play, and such a tremendous adaptation, and it felt like it really fell under a lot of people's radar.
Oh hey Sammy!! So happy to see this in my subscription box ☺️☺️
While I am admittedly not super tuned into the film scene and have seen a grand total of zero films on your personal list, my personal favorite film I saw last year was Pig. Such an intimate look at one man's experiences with grief, and the acting and directing made everything pop in just the right ways for me.
Those top 3 sound fabulous. I’m a sucker for a road trip film, so, good to see that got your top spot in the end
Ahhh I’ve been wondering if the tradition would continue! Yes!
I look forward for this video every year! Took a lot of notes and will definitely look into those, thanks Sammy!
I can't believe I almost missed this! I always love hearing your movie recommendations!
One of my favourite videos every year! Thanks sammy
As always, thank you for sharing this list. I feel like life sometimes pulls me so far away from film and your round up always brings me back.
I have now added 8 new movies to my ever growing “films to watch” list.
Thank you Sammy x
See you again next year!
I love hearing your yearly picks because we always have such similar taste. Cmon cmon was my #1 this year, too. It was one of the few movies I was able to see in theaters last year and I'm so glad I was able to.
Your yearly top tens inspire me to consume and enjoy so many more films than I otherwise would have, thank you 🙏🏼
look forward to these every year, your appreciation for film is such a lovely thing thank u
been waiting for this all year!
Was waiting for this video! Thanks!
Also always funny to recognize other CZcamsr's homes :)
i love and look forward to watching these lists every year
Been looking forward to this. Real happy to see Flee here
Johnny Greenwood is probably my favourite film composer ever. Such an amazing talent
Thanks Sammy! Appreciate the detailed list, nice to see you once in a while :)
Always happy to see this video in my feed! I've usually seen a lot more of your lists but a lot of these are new to me, keen to get watching. Some of my highlights this year were The Lost Daughter, Summer of Soul, The Eyes of Tammy Faye, Birds of Paradise, The French Dispatch and Tina :)
i was such a sucker for annette, shiva baby and tick tick book this year. all so unexpectedly impactful. good year for film!
Ah yay, I so appreciate this annual list, always some great gems for me to check out! Particularly excited for the Worst Person in the World as it's rare to hear stuff from Norway (and I'm highly biased for anything Norwegian haha)
Excellent video! I feel inspired to watch some films.
yay, always love watching these!!
I was a bit confused seeing you and not Evan with that background :D
hahahaha
same! went into an alternate reality for a sec
Happy to see this in my Subscriptions!! :D
Of the films that came out this year, I really liked Titane, 143 Sahara Street by Hassen Ferhani (a documentary about a woman who runs a little shop at the limit of the Sahara in Algeria, it's wonderful), and The Divide by Catherine Corsini (a comedy about a woman admitted into z hospital because of a broken arm as her longtime girlfriend is about to leave her and the Yellow Jackets movement is happening, very funny imo but some of the humour might not translate if you're not french).
Mad God looks incredible and terrifying, I can't wait to watch it !
What a wonderful video!
Great picks! a few here I've discarded but now realise I should probably give a watch. Was suprised to not see Drive My Car, Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy, or Dune on here. What do you think of those? They're some of my favourites from last year.
All good movies, specially Drive My Car!
still capping off the videos with the mac error tone 👌🏼 atleast some aspects of 2010 era youtube have survived 🖤 - great reviews and roundup’s bro :)
babe wake up what i’m doing now just posted
6 films added to my watch list and one I will watch right now
yeees I love tuning into this serieeees cmooooooon yes nice
Sad to not see tick tick boom here, but good list non the less
Everything hurts much lately. I want to watch these movies but I can hear the silence when they're over. I see things exist in the room, smells scent, the warmth of a blanket felt, the sound of a humming laptop heard ... But alone, at the gate after egress from these impactful experiences, I feel ... Disconnection
And Spencer’s just been added to Amazon Prime; two top 5s to go and watch now :)
It's really cool seeing all these mostly indie movies instead of all the main stream ones everyone's been talking about as of late. However, hearing someone compliment Amy Schumer was the most surprising thing out of this entire video
i personally would add coda and pig to the list, loved both a lot, also really liked drive my car even tho it was a bit long maybe. Mad god is absolutely brilliant! On the other hand i did not like titane as much as i liked raw, still a pretty good movie but it left me with a bitter aftertaste.
Right off the bat, I have to ask. Where can you watch mad god. It looks amazing
In which Sammy describes some of his favourite films of the year as "horrible".
I was worried when Dune wasn’t on the honourable mentions list and then when the list was getting closer and closer to the number 1 spot. I was thinking “please don’t let Dune be number one!” I watch these videos of Sammy’s each year to hear about films I would have otherwise never heard of. I have seen enough film reviewers on YT gush about Dune to last a lifetime!
taste!
YES! THE HUMANS AND MASS HAVE BEEN SO OVERLOOKED THIS YEAR!!!
What is the Scott pilgrim noise at the end of the video called? I think it'd be cool as a phone notification sound.
Love the vid but can do a lovely board games episode 5
I'll be back when this will have a million views
I would have loved for Belfast to have been on the list. Affected me very greatly.
Is this... Evan Edinger's apartment? or do you two have similiar interior design !
ohpe nvm just read the description aha
gimme the goods
sammmyyyy
So many movies I haven't watched, which I will definitely check out now.
Also I was kinda waiting for Promising Young Woman to be mentioned but maybe that's just me...
Promising Young Woman was on his 2020 list I think :)
Titane is on MUBI right now! I’m watching it! It’s very fucked up!
Wait Sammy you speak French?
Whys he at Evans
To talk about films
CODA?.
Very nice movie
no petit maman ? : _ (
Lovely movie
@@ICOEPR this took a while. Did you only just watch it?
I won’t ever forgive you for getting rid of your sexually frustrated robot song, I think of it from time to time and never hearing it again really sucks
I’m so sorry.
