My
favourite film of 2016 was Victoria, bravado filmmaking by Sebastian
Schiller shot in one complete take during a night in Berlin. It will be
interesting to see how Woody Harrelson's upcoming project Lost in London
compares. For his debut feature as director Harrelson is planning to
take the one take film a step further by transmitting it live to
selected cinemas as it's being shot.
Top 5 films of 2016:
Victoria (Sebastian
Schiller)
Mustang (Deniz Gamze Ergüven)
Hunt for the Wilderpeople (Taika Waititi)
Eight Days a Week (Ron Howard)
American Honey (Andrea Arnold)**
Top 5 old films I saw for the first time in 2016:
Two for the Road (Stanley Donen)
The Long Good Friday (John Mackenzie)
Riff-Raff (Ken Loach)
The French Connection (William Friedkin)
Cool Runnings (Jon Turteltaub)
** edit>> I didn't actually see American Honey until 2018 but feel that it is too good not to be included here.
