The Best Films of 2020

You might think that this year delivered us a paucity of new films from which to choose from, but that’s defeatist talk. It was incredibly easy to find ten new films that left an indelible impression on me in 2020.

I’m only half kidding about those. At the halfway point of 2020 I’d seen exactly seven new releases, so for most of the year I was adamant that this list of previously-unseen classics was going to be it. (And the cover image was briefly going to go the other way, featuring films that were supposed to come out this year but were pushed to 2021: Black Widow, No Time To Die, Dune, etc.) This post was, for a long time, going to be an unavoidable illustration of what a weird gutpunch this year was, with just the slightest hint of sincerity. All About Eve is so, so great.

But then things opened up a bit – at least in the intangible realm of streaming platforms  and instead of struggling to reach the arbitrarily-round number of 10 great films of the year, I found myself unable to get the list down to 10. Every year there are a few beloved stragglers hovering beside the podium (true this year as well), but culling two of the below from the final tally felt strangely dishonest.

This year, the page break definitely came to rest outside the top 12, and why argue? There’s no reason anyone should care. Really, those of us compelled to make these lists year after year should change that final number each and every time, get under our own skins and do a top 14 one year and a top 4 the next. This endeavour is inherently rigid, there should be at least one element of chaos in there.

But no prime numbers, obviously. The grid remains sacred.
