Out of all the years I’ve been covering film, 2013 certainly ranks near the top of film years that make it hard to craft a top 10. There were so many different permutations of this top 10 list that I had to walk away from the computer for five minutes to regroup. However, I think that the battle was well worth it as the 10 films I selected accurately reflect the films that really spoke to me this year.
This Sunday the first major award show, The Golden Globes, is set to air and will give us our first true look at what the awards season might bare out. With Oscar nomination being announced on Thursday, the Globes might be the first place to convince people to put you down to win the big prize. So who will win at the Globes? I took a look at the nominations and offered some predictions and analysis.
Foreign Language Oscar Breakdown
The Oscar race is never a dull one and that couldn’t be any more apparent than in the race for Best Foreign Language film. This year is certainly shaping up to be a battle of David vs. Goliath if you looked at the histories of the countries competing. In one corner, you have Italy, with a whopping 12 wins in this category, facing off with a country like Cambodia, with no Oscar nominations. But such is the beauty of the awards season and the Oscars. So before the nominations come out, here’s an Oscar primer to get you caught up on the Foreign Language films.
2013 has been an embarrassment of riches in terms of films. There have been great films in a wide array of genres that have made some lasting impressions and there are scenes from these movies that people will talk about forever. Recently on Twitter, Scott Feinberg posed the question about what people thought the best scenes in movies were this past year. So without further ado, here’s a selection of unforgettable scenes from 2013.
The Year’s Most Difficult Movies to Rewatch/Revisit
Narrowing down a list of the best of any year is a difficult proposition for anyone to face, let alone awards voters. Being in the process of creating my own top 10 for 2013, which will be revealed this Thursday, I found myself having to choose between movies that I had only seen once and that I wouldn’t want to watch again. It’s been much the same in past years with films like A Separation that were such a special screening experience that I haven’t been able to revisit it.
