My favorite films of 2018

I managed to see a lot of films that came out this year, thanks to the miracle of MoviePass (that has since mostly expired...although I still have a membership and continue to hold out hope that it will get better).

All in all, I saw about 50 movies, not including Netflix comedy specials, that came out in 2018. Here are my favorites, in no particular order:

  • The Favourite
  • Roma
  • Blackkklansman
  • First Reformed
  • Shoplifters
  • Tully
  • Minding the Gap
  • The Rider
  • Private Life
  • Sorry to Bother You
  • Eighth Grade
  • If Beale Street Could Talk
-->
I also posted them on my Letterboxd account.

I think I'd put Roma and The Favourite in the top two slots (I don't know which I'd rank higher!), closely followed by First Reformed and Sorry to Bother You. I haven't yet had a chance to see Cold War or Leave No Trace, which I have high hopes for.

Man, I'd say this was a good year for movies!

I tried for a hot second to be vegan for the month of January (aka "Veganuary"). I didn't even last more than a day. Man, I'm weak this year!
