If the influence of Netflix bears any fruit herein, it's that I no longer feel the need to cling to numerical limits. 2017 has been a brutal year across the board, and I have unlimited love for anyone who would A) think that they might find some joy in my hierarchical foolishness, and B) actually read the whole thing.
Everyone is dealing with too much. But in an ideal, non-fascist world, I think these selections would make for a great party and a great broadcast.

BEST
FILMS
1
Call Me By Your Name
To
know that your first love matters. To live your life amidst
literature, and music, and art, and beauty, and those meals, and to
find yourself unmoored by the deepest kinds of love and hornitude,
and to know that in the end, it matters.
2
A Dark Song
As
if Clive Barker and David Simon had collaborated.
3
Colossal/Get Out
Unjust
systems, concealed in the soft touch of love, that feed on everything
distinctive and kind and interesting about you.
4
Phantom Thread
The
best Joseph Losey film since the death of Joseph Losey.
5
BPM/Columbus/Dave Made a Maze/Lady Bird/Thelma
Dismantling
the structures, figuratively and literally, with which the customs of
the past have shaped us and how we live with others.
6
Alien: Covenant/Faces Places
The
innate strength of humanity is to adapt and transform ourselves, and
the spaces in which we live. But our flaws cannot be escaped. Teach
the children well, to be sure. And leave the curmudgeonly old men
behind.
7
Blade Runner 2049/The Endless/Sequence Break
Innovation
and escape. A new way of looking at the linear and removing oneself
from its matrix. Resourceful thinking and a willingness to embrace
the strange and unusual.
8
The Square
"Tesla
of Justice."
9
I Don’t Feel At Home in This World Anymore/mother!/The
Ornitholgist
Stumbling
around in a cosmic melodrama with no clear rules and no way to win.
But always hope. Always faith in the process. The best religious
pictures of the year.
10
The Beguiled/A Cure for Wellness/The Killing of a Sacred Deer
How
to dismantle the patriarchy. Expansive, historical, gruesome, and
deeply deeply satisfying.
