Dream Scenario is one of the best of the year. What a unique concept that's never been shown before tackling issues of cancel culture, fame, social boycott, isolation and discrimination.
@ImpressionBlend 4 місяці тому
Genuinely shocked it didn't get "picked up" by movie fans and taken to wider popularity. The movie has everything and it's so funny as well.

Godzilla Minus One is so good! Probably my favorite theater experience of the year with that really intense sound design and especially atomic breath. Just absolutely stunned into silence!!! Some of my favorite underrated/under-talked-about films of the year: Influencer, Fair Play, Are You There God It's Me Margaret, Bottoms, They Cloned Tyrone, Missing, and Saw X (I'm serious).

@realDialFforFilm 4 місяці тому
Great picks. I'll have to catch up on the ones I haven't seen. One I want to throw out there is technically only a 2023 release because of NYFF, but I'm counting it. Bertrand Bonello's "The Beast." A French film starring Léa Seydoux and George MacKay. Set in 2044, where emotion is a threat to artificial intelligence, humans undergo a procedure to have all emotion erased by eliminating deep-rooted connections to past lives. So, the film takes place in 1910, 2014, and 2044 as a relationship between these two people is dissected through each period. Thanks for all the great content in 2023, Marianna, and have a great 2024.

I really enjoyed the Irish language film, “An Cailín Ciúin”-“The Quiet Girl”-which I don’t think received the theatre distribution it deserved when it was released in Canada and the US back in March. I’m lucky enough to have an independent cinema near me, where I was able to see this beautiful, touching, and most memorable film about childhood, family, love and loss, and the effects of grief on our lives. It’s a bittersweet film that ends on a note of sadness, but also with a promise of hope, and it completely bowled me over emotionally the first time I saw it. I loved “The Quiet Girl” so much, I went back to see it three more times. I can’t remember the last time a film affected me so deeply. It should have won the Oscar for Best Foreign Film instead of losing out to “All Quiet on the Western Front” which, as good a film as it is, simply doesn’t measure up to “The Quiet Girl”. I think about this film every day.

Glad I've seen some of your previous lists so I know you have pretty good taste. The only "film" I've seen on this list was the Black Mirror episode- have we dumbed it down that far? I've seen every episode of Black Mirror and I'm still waiting for them ever to really fully flesh out a concept. It's the New Years Eve of television- a lot of planning and always a dissappointing party.

Speaking of Black Mirror my favorite film length piece in the series was White Christmas with Jon Hamm. So bleak and yet felt real close to reality. I think it was season two, so not 2023. I like best feature length Black Mirrors getting season-end awards consideration. Great show, watched all seasons, all episodes this year. Would love more seasons

Some here that I haven't heard of, I'll add to the list. Thanks! Some underrated films that I feel no one really talked about: True Spirit The true story about Jessica Watson who, at the age of 16, became the youngest person to sail solo around the world. But underneath it's really a celebration of nature and family. Linoleum A film about dreaming big and realising what life really is about. Living Based on a 1952 Japanese film, about a man coming to terms with the fact that being alive doesn't mean living. No One Will Save You A sci-fi horror that really surprised me with it's constant close encounters and almost no dialog at all. Pinball: The Man Who Saved the Game One of the most surprising films of the year for me, filmed as a mockumentary, it's funny, heartfelt, eyeopening and refreshingly honest.

I wanted to love "Beyond the Sea", but it got a little tedious. I know that is kind of the point, but I lost interest when the writers introduced "why" David wanted to stay. It is such a rote explanation. I would have liked it more if he just fell in love with being alive and free and reaching a point where, after years of giving up on life, he did not want to give that back. That said, I need to add SO many of the movies you named to my "must-watch" list. Thank you so much for this list, Mariana. I hope you have a wonderful 2024!
