My Top 10 Films of 2017
When I originally wrote this list at the end of 2017, I noted how I didn't think this was a very good year for film. Since then however, I have seen more 2017 releases, and the revised list seen below has 4 films on it that I hadn't seen at the time I wrote my original list. So I guess 2017 wasn't so bad after all.
