Best films I watched for the first time in 2019.

Posted on December 31, 2019 by robchristopher

As you might expect, it’s another motley crew of films this year, which only goes to prove that my movie viewing possesses very little rhyme or reason. Which is just how I like it.

APOLLO 11 (Todd Douglas Miller)
BEAUTY #2 (Andy Warhol)
BURNING (Chang-dong Lee)
THE GREEN FOG (Guy Maddin & Evan Johnson & Galen Johnson)
IN MY ROOM (Ulrich Köhler)
KNIVES OUT (Rian Johnson)
THE ONE I LOVE (Charlie McDowell)
ROMA (Alfonso Cuarón)
SAINT FRANCES (Alex Thompson & Kelly O’Sullivan)
SUPPORT THE GIRLS (Andrew Bujalski)
THREADS (Mick Jackson)
