DIAMANTINO
I hate football. I’m not a fan of dogs. But the two together, with a sprinkling of pink candy-floss clouds, makes for a winning combo.

THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING, MISSOURI.
I saw this in 2017, at the IMAX with the director and cast doing a Q&A and I was so enthralled, I went straight to the bookies (and lost a tenner. Oh well, maybe this year…)

THE SQUARE
Yet again, trying real hard to not make all of the films in my list Curzon films, but I really loved this so much, I wanted to marry it (with DOGMAN, A FANTASTIC WOMAN, THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT and LE BONHEUR as bridesmaids).

COLD WAR
I watch so many films, that I rarely watch things more than once. This one I watched thrice on the big screen – and the year isn’t over yet!

YOU WERE NEVER REALLY HERE
I’d say this was a perfectly formed film, nothing wasted – boom, bang, bosh. Job done. But what do I know?

A QUIET PLACE
it’s a toss up between this is BLACKKKLANSMAN, hm, I’m still not sure? Neither are masterpieces, both are surprisingly enjoyable..

LEAVE NO TRACE
Like a camouflaged Ninja, this creeps up behind you and performs the Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique.

THEY SHALL NOT GROW OLD
This was unbearable. Almost unwatchable. Everyone has to see it.

THREE IDENTICAL STRANGERS
Such a good documentary, with more twists than Chubby Checker and the Fat Boys; I’m so happy that Netflix kept its mitts off and it wasn’t turned into a 10 part series.

LUCKY
if I had to pick a favourite and seeing that THE FAVOURITE isn’t technically out until next year, this is it. RIP Harry Dean Stanton <3
