    I have a video idea for you. I think it would be cool to hear about a list of movies that you consider “perfect.” Like a perfect movies list. Movies that fully come together for you and are cohesive where you wouldn’t change a single thing about them

    You’re so lucky to have seen “Vortex” in theaters. The movie had a very limited release and the closest theater that showed it was over three hours away from my house. I still haven’t seen it and I think the only way I’ll be able to see it is by getting an Amazon prime subscription.

    I just wanted to drop in and say that your observations on film are so compelling and cogent, standing apart from essentially all other film discussion channels which are either myopic or hyperbolic.

    @lorenr1274 Před rokem +14

    Nice list. My favorites for 2022:
    1. Tar (hands down the best)
    2. The Northman
    3. Pinocchio (Del Toro's version, not the godawful Disney remake)
    4. Kimi
    5. The Batman (agree that stylistically it's the best Batman film to date)
    6. Enola Holmes 2 (don't laugh, it was far better than the first one)
    7. Emily the Criminal
    8. Glass Onion
    9. X (still haven't seen Pearl but I suspect it would have made my cut, like yours)
    10. Vortex
    11. Prey
    12. Operation Mincemeat
    Regarding your comment about Casino: that's one of my favorite Scorsese films. I say that without reservation; I even like it better than Goodfellas, because it's more epic in terms of the characters' rise and fall.

    • @cannibalholocaust3015

  • @MasterSwordOblivion
    @MasterSwordOblivion Před rokem +4

    I loved hearing about your favorites this year and some of the films I felt similar towards were Babylon and The Batman. Both stuck with me for the feelings they gave me more so than the cohesiveness of plot or director intent. Their atmosphere and overall production do a lot of the work in pulling me in and holding me there. I have yet to see Vortex and Banshees but plan to soon. My movie of the year still goes to Mad God for the absolutely demented spectacle that it was, but Tár is high on that list as well because I deeply enjoyed the character study. Phenomenal year for film. Let’s hope 2023 is even better!

      @@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 Robert as Batman was believable in my opinion. He’s incredibly angry at the world and the criminal element for what they did to his family and he’s detached himself from the world in his crime fighting obsession. He has a palpable rage and over the film he is shown to be social awkward and is slowly humanized by Selena Kyle. Try rewatching it and maybe you’ll be surprised.

    Hi Maggie, good list! There's a few you mentioned that I will be checking out soon. All Quiet on the Western front is probably my movie of the year. It's just a very beautiful adaptation of that novel. I think it flew under a lot of radars because it's in German. If it wins a nomination for Best International film, that might give it some additional exposure.

  • @martin43427

    Great list. Some of your picks would be on my list of the year, too. Some I would recommend that came out that I really loved would be Alejandro G. Inarritu’s Bardo, the new All Quiet on the Western Front German remake, Aftersun, Emily the Criminal, and EO. I hope any of these are of any interest to see.

    Good list, considering the options available. The one that most jumps out as me as missing would be "The Whale". Some reviewers found it to be exploitive or offensive, but that's not what I got at all. Much like my favorite movie of 2022, Banshees of Inisherin, it was simple and deep at the same time. Of course given that it's Aronofsky, you have to know that you're in for some tough emotions - but I made myself ready for that and I was surprised by how good it was.

    @ernestmendez5487 Před rokem

    Haven't seen most of these, as my attention span has been taken for granted too many times by movie companies (and I do value your suggestions, thank you, and will certainly see a few of these, now). But I'm really glad that you liked Red Rocket so much. Because, personally, although I've only seen it once, I found it to be the greatest movie since Parasite.
    I especially liked its originality: how it's essentially a comedy played completely straight. With elements so absurdly comical. And yet the direction and acting and settings lend themselves quite well to a humanistic sense of realism that truly immerses you (without getting too into it, I'd be greatly surprised if the writer isn't familiar with Shakespeare, Balzac, Dostoevsky, or Tennessee Williams). And although, there was one real plot hole, (when he escapes out the window) it doesn't even matter because it leads to the most hilarious part of the whole movie,--when he's jogging dick-flopping-naked-and-afraid to the sound of nsync (forever changing the meaning of that song!)-while lending homage to, and ratcheting up the absurdity of, Steve Martin's iconic dignity-thrashing scene in The Jerk.
    And I'm going to have to disagree with you in a couple of ways about this movie. You talk about the sense of melancholy because it's the story of a man's downfall. However, he was already pretty much hitting rock bottom at the beginning of the movie (the pitch of his wildly and ingenuously absurd vacuous ego is what truly lightens things up, as anyone else in that situation would have been utterly and helplessly pitiful); with absolutely no money (he could have just come from jail), while having to constantly swallow the fact of his failed enterprise in front of so many people that he used to know. And I would probably call it melancholy if Mikey's character had enough sense, emotional intelligence, and consequently, self-awareness, to actually be philosophical.
    Also, you speak of the sadness of American life. But I honestly feel that there was a deeper human truth there. Because all of our dreams (even Mikey's, which struck me as particularly illiterate and utterly bereft of imagination; as impoverished people generally do not have the luxury of art, and consequently, imagination, and are typically squeezed and cornered by society into a truly low and instinctually brutal state) are somewhat delusional. And quite simply because human beings are only capable of forethought, and not foresight. Anyways, without dreams, we cannot have hope. And without hope, none of us would even get out of bed in the morning.
    Jay from RLM found the ending to be seriously depressing. But I found it to be absolutely wonderful. Because Mikey still had hope, to very last. He was still dreaming. He was still believing. And that is so wonderfully human. Also, the ending is only as ambiguous as your own heart is. Do you believe in human beings? Do you believe in love? In the kind of love so irrational that it could accept a naked sweaty liar who has absolutely nothing in the world to his name? Oh, I believe it. And I believe that nine times out of ten, that sort of love would certainly not come from a man.
    Anyways, I hope that my tone wasn't too pointed, here (I suppose that I'm a polemicist, and my enthusiasm for art often gets the best of me!). Because I have great respect for you, and that interestingly rare and bright mind or yours that you've cultivated so well. Love your voice, in both senses, and I hope that you continue to speak to us.

Same thing will happen with Babylon. Also loved Pearl. I still think Fabelmans is the best of the year but obviously haven't seen everything yet. Fall is runner up for me. Another nice surprise.

    Hi Maggie, this is an interesting list that I really enjoyed. I'd love to see you record an episode on your feelings about the state of American films. I think that the impact of Marvel is now insidious. It feels that we basically have marvel movies every three weeks and horror and kids movies every week. There is almost a complete absence of adult oriented original stories. Would love to hear your thoughts.

    Top 10 favorite movies:
    1. Top Gun: Maverick
    2. Barbarian
    3. The Batman
    4. The Northman
    5. RRR
    6. The Outfit
    7. Everything Everywhere All At Once
    8. Bullet Train
    9. The Menu
    10. The Stranger
    Honorable Mentions that got cut:
    - Banshees of Inisherin
    - Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio
    - Nope
    Feels wrong not to have Banshees of Inisherin on there, but The Stranger really stuck with me, and Banshees of Inisherin is just too fresh since I basically only just saw it not too long ago. I truly loved the top 7 and will probably watch them multiple times. I think most of them are undeniably great, but some of these I have there because I just had a great time watching them.

  • @realDialFforFilm
    @realDialFforFilm Před rokem

    Nice list, Maggie, and Happy New Year. It's always great to see a mix of unique films, from the Hollywood Blockbuster "Top Gun: Maverick" to the bold insanity of "Babylon." I haven't seen a great many films this year, but of what I have seen, here's a short list of films I liked that were not mentioned in your video, and if possible, I'd love to hear your thoughts on them at some point.
    "BARDO: False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths" - This is my favorite film of the year. I've been anticipating Alejandro González Iñárritu's return to filmmaking ever since his back-to-back hits with "Birdman" and "The Revenant," and this did not disappoint. This is the one film I saw this year that brought me back to a sense of magical realism I felt with great directors back in the golden days. Iñárritu looks deep within himself, constructing the film out of dreams he's had throughout his life about himself, his family, his work, and his culture. This is a hard film to unravel, and I'm not going to pretend I understand a lot of it. In fact, I will even admit that it's a little maddening sometimes. But I wouldn't want it any other way; this is truly the vision of a man pouring his heart out and exploring himself.
    "Aftersun" - Arguably the most personal viewing experience I had all year. A somewhat autobiographical story of a young woman reflecting on a vacation she had with her dad when she was a little girl, attempting to make sense of him in the process. The film is told entirely through memory, which is a faulty and convoluted mechanism. How much of the film is an accurate memory, how much is misremembered, and how much is a fantasized idea of what might have happened? Speaking as someone who lost my dad nearly 10 years ago, I can say the sense of recollection of a lost loved one is very accurate to how I think back on past events. The stuff I remember stays with me. The stuff I vaguely remember is stuff I question. And for the things I don't understand, I try to imagine context to make sense of. Overall, I think the point is that no matter how hard we may try, we may never honestly know our loved ones, no matter how intimate we may have been with them. The filmmaking is something to marvel at as well; the camera placement is meticulously crafted to be just a little off, while the editing and sound design add a melancholy effect to the process of remembering. I'm not gonna lie; the film got to me.

    I'll have to check out Pearl, I missed that one. I haven't seen that many 2022 movies as a ot are due in the UK but from what I've seen, I 'll give a top 5 -
    5. Babylon - I agree with you Maggie it is stunning filmmaking but it probably could have done with some editing - great performances, great setpieces but a lot of uncomfortable comparisons with other movies (Pulp Fiction, Singin in The Rain), but the sheer ambition is to be celebrated in a generally unimaginative current cinema environment.
    4. Everything Everwhere All At Once
    3 The Banshees of Inisherin
    2 The Fabelmans
    1 AFTERSUN - a simple but stunning debut

  • @helvete_ingres4717
    @helvete_ingres4717 Před rokem

    What made the last year stand out was a trifecta of unusually-inspired blockbusters (tempting to take as signifying of the recovery of cinema as a viable industry post-covid) which were Everything Everywhere etc., the Northman, and the crowning jewel which was Top Gun: Maverick (I didn't catch the Batman). Other than that, the only film I saw that spoke to me was Aftersun. Decision to Leave, the Banshees of Inisherin, Mad God - they didn't do much for me. Corsage was interesting. Tar and Babylon only come out here this year. I just saw the new Avatar which was good in the ways it could have been good I guess, enjoyable. Ones I missed that I think I might have liked to see were the Wonder and RRR.

  • @lenflakisinski6260

    just watched Tar, and its fantastic. I think it does a way better job of showing egotistical conductors/educators than Whiplash. Much more realistic really shows what those type of directors are like. They're not R Lee Ermy, they're much subtler than that

    • @deepfocuslens
      @deepfocuslens  Před rokem +7

      More realistic certainly...but Whiplash is more of a fever dream addiction experience, and not meant to be an authentic depiction in the same way. Less about the periphery...and more about losing yourself to the ecstasy of performing without judgement, which resonantes with me. I see them as serving completely different purposes. Tar more cerebral, Whiplash more visceral. Both very effective in their own ways.

    I don't usually make film requests but you should really watch Death in Venice (1971). Would be a fascinating review and discussion.

  • @lloydpassafume5357
    @lloydpassafume5357 Před rokem

    Good list. I of course am never able to see all the movies that came out this year but I’m going to try and catch: Babylon, Everything Everywhere, X/Pearl, and maybe the Northman.
    My top 3:
    1. Top Gun Maverick
    2. Barbarian
    3. The Batman

    Nice list, Maggie.
    1. Elvis (saw it 23x in the theater)
    2. Top Gun: Maverick (saw it 18x)
    3. The Batman
    The rest is pretty much a tie for me. I think Pearl might be 4th. Will eventually see RRR and Glass Onion on Netflix.

    Triangle of Sadness. Haven't seen anything else painted on as wide a canvas and done as well yet.

    @johns123 Před rokem

    I liked The Whale. Even though the dialogue spells the themes out, I liked how it portrayed the characters honestly, lots of soul searching, and ultimately it came together into a spiritual experience

    @ArthurAugustyn Před rokem

    I tend to disagree with your reviews but I share many of your top films. The one I had that you don't is Crimes of the Future by David Cronenberg. I think your review said you enjoyed it, but it didn't show up here. I've been thinking about it ever since. Definitely struck a nerve for me.

    @marcus_ohreallyus Před rokem

    Agree about Mia Goth. I've seen her in a few films but never paid much attention to her performances until Pearl. That movie was amazing because of her unhinged, raw acting. And I also noticed the score of Batman...especially the last few minutes of the movie. I've listened to it many times since watching the movie.
