The best films of 2022
As the year is drawing to a close, the annual scramble to compile “best of 2022” lists is heating up. As usual, I probably won’t be happy with my list until well into the new year. And even then, mine is a list that keeps changing once I discover new films — and that process takes years.
For now, I’m happy to remind you that my yearly list is always available here, with updates coming almost every day. The list ranks not just the 2022 films I’ve seen but all 4,000+ feature films I’ve ever viewed. Of course, I don’t expect you to agree with my subjective rankings. There are times when I don’t even agree with them. But I do encourage you to pay attention to the movies at the top of the list for each year. Those are the ones that inspire, entertain, enlighten and make our lives a bit more meaningful.
