The Best of 2020
Better late, than never. I enjoy seeing other people’s top-10 lists and I said I’d do one for 2020, so here we go. I haven’t had the chance to watch EVERYTHING I wanted to, but you’ve got to pull the trigger at some point. When the Academy Awards took place on Sunday, I felt like I hadn’t seen ANYTHING nominated but I could remember dozens of times where I felt like I wasted my precious minutes with cinematic detritus. I assumed putting this list together would be easy. It wasn’t. I’ve got a lot of runner ups but for now, here are my Top 10 “Best” (by which I kind of mean my favorite) movies of 2020:
10. Never Rarely Sometimes Always
Never Rarely Sometimes Always gave me a lot to think about. On the surface, it's about a teenager who has to travel outside of her hometown to get an abortion, but it could've been any kind of procedure she's uncomfortable (or unable) asking her parents for. It's about the lengths she has to go to when her main source of support is cut off. You feel uneasy throughout, wondering what lengths the girls will have to resort through and whether something horrible is just around the corner. For this reason, I think many parents would find the film enriching.
9. Mank
I haven’t posted my review of Mank yet - just haven't had the time so consider my star rating for it "spoiled". If you don't know, it's about Herman J. Mankiewicz (Gary Oldman) and the time he wrote Citizen Kane for Orson Welles. I can’t call Citizen Kane one of my favorite films, but I do often think of it. The story, the characters, specific shots, the overall look, etc. Every time I revisit it in my memory, my appreciation for it grows and in a way, Mank helps complete my relationship with the film. For that reason, I foresee myself revisiting Mank in the future - probably as part of a double-bill. I’d love to see it enough times to memorize some of Gary Oldman’s best lines.
8. One Night in Miami
One Night in Miami addresses the present while being set in the past but something about it clicked with me more than Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom. It's essentially a series of long conversations, the kinds that force you to really examine tough questions and see these legendary figures as normal people. Unlike Mank, it isn't so much the individual lines that stand out, it's more the vibes you get from the exchanges. Out of all the movies on this list, it's probably got the best ensemble cast.
7. Sound of Metal
I'm sure you've seen that clip from Un Chien Andalou where an eye gets sliced with a razor? It gives me the willies just thinking about it because if I were blind I wouldn't be able to watch movies or draw. In Sound of Metal, we're dealing with a career cut short because of deafness but the dots are easy to connect. I immediately connected with this movie, which made its ending feel like a punch in the gut.
6. Tenet
I keep telling myself that I won’t love a movie Christopher Nolan directs just because his name is attached to it. Hopefully, this doesn't make me a fanboy, despite my falling for pretty much everything he's released. I love how ambitious Tenet is. The plot is so complicated but then again it isn't because once you're able to grok the mechanics of its reverse-entropy technology, you'll probably figure out most of the plot's mysteries. For me, that was the fun part. It felt good to see my understanding of the story and theories confirmed. I'll be watching it again once groups can gather so my friends and I can discuss everything in detail.
5. Trial of the Chicago Seven
I know The Trial of the Chicago Seven fudges history in ways certain people would say is irredeemable but I never go into a film “based on true events” assuming liberties won’t be taken. At the end of the day, I care about being entertained. My enjoyment was also amplified by the fact that I didn't know what the verdicts would be - my American history is spotty, at best. It's got laughs, outrage, drama, and inspirational moments. Aside from romance, you've got pretty much all the bases covered.
4. Palm Springs
Out of all the pleasant surprises of 2020, Palm Springs was the biggest. I thought the Groundhog Day thing was played out and the 0-star-worthy Love Wedding Repeat did nothing to convince me otherwise. Then, this movie comes along and does everything you want in one of those movies, and then some. Not only did Palm Springs give me the romantic comedy I'd been craving for (feels like we haven't gotten a good one since "Crazy Rich Asians" it also examines what love and relationships mean through smartly written metaphors.
3. Possessor
No, I didn’t put this movie on the list just because it’s Canadian; Possessor is on this list because it’s the most unsettling movie of 2020. I mean that in a good way. I've already talked about how unsettling the premise is but it's also the execution. Those bizarre “dream” scenes with the different identities merging in unnatural ways is unforgettable. That mask of Tasya's face, half-melted is already creepy enough, when worn by Christopher Abbott as he re-enacts her memories is just so weird it makes you wonder if you’re actually seeing what you’re seeing, or if you’re going mad. Then, there's that shot with the fingers at the end! Makes me wince just thinking about it.
2. Soul
During the Oscars, I get a little mad at Pixar. They effortlessly churn out these masterpieces that mean no other studio has a chance of winning an Academy Award for the Best Animated Film category. It makes me wonder if the voters even bother to watch the competition but I don't think anyone could argue against Soul. It's among their best films. It’s gorgeous, profound, and modern without showcasing any issues that might flush your day down the toilet.
Runner-Ups:
Enola Holmes
I never believed Enola Holmes would end up on my "Best of the Year" list but this movie is a lot of fun. If you haven't seen it yet, you should. Just wanted to remind you.
Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) I was disappointed when audiences didn’t seem interested in Birds of Prey. Seeing Margot Robbie go all-out and given a script that actually makes good use of her character was lots of fun. I also found it refreshing to see a superhero movie (not really, but kind of) that didn’t involve a plot to destroy the world, upheaval all of civilization, or shoot a giant beam into the sky. I think this is one people will discover down the line and go “why didn’t I go see this in theaters when it was playing?”
Borat Subsequent Moviefilm I’m not 100% in love with Borat 2 but boy am I looking forward to showing it to people who have no idea what’s coming. That scene with Rudy Guliani might not have the same impact down the line as it did when I first saw this sequel, but that’s ok. It’ll still have you picking your jaw off the floor.
Nomadland It’s a great movie and I might’ve put it on my list of the best… but I just don’t see myself watching this one again anytime soon. Great movie though. It deserves every accolade you see directed towards it. Chloé Zhao is shaping up to be a major talent. While before I might’ve said “Eternals who?” Now, I’m excited.
The Vast of Night Until I saw Possessor, this was my favorite horror film of 2020. I love the way this movie does so much without showing anything. It’s all about letting your imagination do the work.
Hamilton I’m still unsure how I feel about the casting in Hamilton. Everyone does a terrific job. I understand why actors of color were chosen to portray the historical figures we meet during this story. It still doesn't sit 100% comfortable with me. Then again, who can argue with those results? I’ve seen the movie twice and the songs are still playing in my head.
1. Promising Young Woman
I only had so much before this post went up. Enough for one more movie. It was a tossup between The Father, Judas and the Black Messiah, and Promising Young Woman. As you can imagine, I’m pretty satisfied with the choice I made. Writer/director Emerald Fennell takes the rape-revenge genre and reshapes it into something that feels completely new. Like many of the other films on this list, it also feels relevant to what’s going on today. There are many reasons why I could’ve given it this slot. The writing, the performances, the way it puts your stomach in knots as you wonder what’s going to happen next, the pitch-perfect ending… but I’m going to pick a more personal reason. I try to look at films as snapshots of when they were made. There’s a part of me that winces when I look at Gone with the Wind but I’m also able to take a step back and say “but other than that…” and then just enjoy the movie. In Promising Young Woman, the past is confronted in a way that made me pause and think about two movies on my shelf: Wedding Crashers and American Pie. The Vince Vaughn/Owen Wilson comedy, in particular, has a lot of questionable bits of comedy, bits made even more eyebrow-raising by the fact that it isn't an "old" movie whose entire cast is now dead. Let’s just say that when a movie makes me go “This movie is replacing X”, makes me think this hard about things, and does everything else you want in a thriller… it’ll stick in your head for a long time. That's why I'm calling it the best/my favorite movie of the year.

O SOM DO SILÊNCIO / O SOM DO METAL / SOUND OF METAL
Sound of Metal (O Som do Silêncio, O Som do Metal) é um filme de drama, com direção de Darius Marder. Teve sua estreia mundial no programa Platform Prize no Festival Internacional de Cinema de Toronto e foi lançado também nos cinemas.
O longa do Amazon Prime Video, conta a história de Ruben (Riz Ahmed), um baterista de heavy metal que repentinamente está perdendo sua audição.
Como Ruben e sua namorada Lou (integrante da banda) estão prestes a iniciar uma turnê pelo país, ele sente que além estar perdendo sua carreira, também está perdendo a sua namorada.
Ruben então passa a vivenciar momentos de verdadeira angústia, já que se sente impossibilitado de tocar devida a perda irreversível de sua audição, o que lhe faz retornar a antigos traumas do passado, uma vez que ele é um ex viciado em drogas.
Com o incentivo de Lou, para que este busca ajuda e não caía em desespero, ele resolve ingressar em uma comunidade de pessoas com deficiência auditiva e passa a ser orientado por Joe (Paul Raci), que o ajuda a entender melhor o que ele está vivendo.
Uma delicadeza de filme, uma verdadeira pérola, dá vontade de colocar em um potinho.
Acho que o filme merece toda aclamação, inclusive, o índice de aprovação é de 97% no Rotten Tomatoes.
O filme recebeu seis indicações ao Oscar 2021: Melhor filme, Melhor ator (com Riz Ahmed), Melhor roteiro original, Melhor ator coadjuvante (com Paul Raci), Melhor som e Melhor edição. E ganhou os prêmios de Melhor som e Melhor Edição.
O elenco é maravilhoso. Sou complemente obcecada em Riz Ahmed, acho ele um ator primoroso, que se entrega a absolutamente tudo que faz.
Para quem não sabe, além de ator, ele é musicista. Ele é, sem dúvidas, uma das grandes surpresas do filme, ele torna o filme perfeito!
Você com certeza já o viu em alguma produção, ele fez o vilão Carlton Drake em Venom, fez o piloto da Aliança Rebelde Bodhi Rook, no filme Rogue One e ainda viveu o personagem Naz Khan, na aclamada série de sucesso da HBO "The Night Off" (essa jájá eu indico aqui).
O filme conta com o talentoso Paul Raci, que foi aclamado pela crítica por sua atuação como o mentor de Ruben, ele já é veterano no teatro, cinema, televisão.
Temos a atriz Olivia Cook, rostinho já conhecido em Jogador nº 1, onde viveu a personagem Samantha. Em Sound Of Metal ela vive Lou, a namorada de Ruben e também integrante da banda.
Quem também está no filme é Mathieu Amalric, ator e cineasta francês.
E ainda, temos a atriz surda Lauren Ridlof, que também ficou conhecida como ex-Miss América Surdos. Ela também é conhecida por viver a personagem Connie em The Walking Dead.
O filme se utiliza de recursos para que você se sinta na pele do Ruben, é ideal que você assista com um volume alto e sem intervenções, em silêncio total, pois fazem uso de ruídos e som para que você capte toda sensação que o Ruben sente ao perder a sua audição. Você realmente vivencia uma experiência, é completamente imersivo, você consegue compreender toda angústia e aflição do personagem, é impossível não se comover.
O filme é inclusivo, não apenas na história, o elenco conta com um grupo majoritário de PCDs (Pessoas com deficiências), como os atores Shaheem Sanchez, Chelsea Lee e Jeremy Stone.
O filme é excepcionalmente sonoro, sensorial. É um filme diferente, bonito, sensível. A última cena então, é de uma beleza, uma delicadeza.
Vale muito a pena, um filme com um bom roteiro e atuações belíssimas.

April 20th 2021 I just finished watching SOUND OF METAL on Amazon Prime
I really really liked it. I love ASL. It really opened up my world to see how people who are going deaf hear the world. It was really interesting. I learned a lot. Strong performances.

La gara per la categoria del Miglior attore non protagonista ha avuto una battuta d’arresto subito dopo la distribuzione del film #JudasAndTheBlackMessiah, laddove l’interpretazione di #DanielKaluuya ha messo d’accordo la critica americana consentendogli di vincere i principali riconoscimenti chiave e dunque attestandolo come il favorito indiscusso. Prima di quel momento (il film è stato distribuito 2 mesi dopo l’inizio effettivo dell’Awards Season) questa categoria era caratterizzata da una sfida a 3: #PaulRaci (#SoundofMetal) che aveva conquistato un numero vertiginoso di premi assegnati dalle associazioni dei critici americani inseguito da #LeslieOdomjr. (#OneNightinMiami) e #SachaBaronCohen (#TheTrialoftheChicago7). Infatti rispetto ai panel delle previsioni sulle nominations che abbiamo elaborato nei mesi precedenti questi 4 nomi sono stati confermati. Esclusi invece Chadwick Boseman (Da 5 Bloods) e Bill Murray (On the rocks) “per far posto” a sorpresa a #LakeithStanfield (Judas and the Black Messiah) dato che era stato proposto dalla Warner Bros come lead actor. Ora diamo un’occhiata ai candidati di quest’anno e al loro percorso durante la Stagione dei Premi.

Sound of Metal (2019)
The most satisfying stories are the ones that keep you guessing and turn out to be so much more than what you anticipated. I had no idea where Sound of Metal was going next, how it would end, or how close to its conclusion I was at any point. With some of the finest performances of the year, a thoughtful, touching story, and excellent sound design (it’ll win an Academy Award for it, I’m sure), this is one of the year’s best films.
Ruben Stone (Riz Ahmed) is the drummer of heavy metal duo Blackgammon when his hearing suddenly gives out. Tests show Ruben can now make out less than 30% of the words he hears. Sensing her boyfriend’s breaking point approaching and fearing he’ll relapse, Lou (Olivia Cooke) convinces him to go to a shelter for deaf recovering addicts.
Immediately, there’s a lot to unpack. You see Ruben with his ugly tattoos all over his body, living on the road with his girlfriend and bandmate, performing loud, angry songs. You wonder what kind of rage simmers underneath. Then you see him wake up, do his morning exercises to romantic music, and prepare a healthy breakfast for Lou. Whatever person he might’ve been has been exorcised by love. He’s a recovering drug addict, she used to hurt herself. They’re not rich but they’re happy. Then, this incident comes and ruins everything.
It isn’t merely that Ruben will no longer be able to play, it’s that the shelter’s policy isolates him in a devastating way. He can’t communicate with anyone outside - including Lou. He can’t sign either. You’re sure the rules Joe (Paul Raci) is imposing are there for a reason… but you wonder if they’re what Ruben needs. Yes, the people he’s with are well-adjusted and happy, but does being able to hear mean the same to them as it does to him? You know. You’ve been there, struggling to piece together conversations. You heard the sound suddenly cut out mid-performance. You’ve seen how difficult it is to be out there and try to live a normal life.
The bulk of this film has our protagonist hanging onto this narrow ledge, struggling to climb back up and you wonder if you even want him to. If he was going to inevitable relapse, this might be a blessing in disguise, a chance to start new. You can see that but even if he does, Ruben refuses to even consider the possibility.
In this role, Riz Ahmed is so good you forget that when they were shooting, he wasn’t hearing what we are. The audio wasn’t mixed on-set. He just had to pretend like it was. You so desperately want him to emerge from this thing ok you’re scared the whole way through, which makes the ending just soul-crushing and beautiful at the same time. Sound of Metal is about deafness turning someone's life upside down but it turns into so much more. (March 30, 2021)
