10 Best Films of 2023
In 2023 I saw a lot of films. Some excellent like this list below, and some not so great (looking at you M3gan). I sat with this list for a while to be honest, most people will have moved on from their top 10 of 2023 lists but I felt I needed to digest my list properly first before I could cement these films and their places.

Phantom Thread (2017)
Introduction From: Pinterest Paul Thomas Anderson is no stranger to making films about neuroticism and narcissism and he is also no stranger when it comes to the meticulous work of Sir Daniel Day-Lewis. In his final film before retirement, Sir Daniel Day-Lewis brings the fashion designer Reynolds to life in a fantastic effort at creating one of the most charismatically crazy characters of the last 25 years of cinema. A blend of psychodrama, romance and high drama, Lesley Manville holds her own as the sister trying to keep this man well grounded, the backbone to the whole movie. As for Vicky Krieps, she is the only person who could match the level of intensely thrilling and passionate that Sir Daniel brought to the film himself.

Movie Review: "Argylle" (2024)
As you know, I am not the biggest fan of comedy movies. More than often, they do not actually resonate with being funny, but instead come across as what Hollywood thinks is funny to ‘normal people’. There have been many occasions where Hollywood has thought something was really funny and the rest of the world sat back and unanimously stated it was not funny at all. This is not really showing Hollywood as being ‘out of touch’ but rather ‘out of time’. People have moved on from trashy comedy films to liking intelligible cinema and quality comedy (enter *Barbenheimer*).
