idk if i’ve been missing stuff (im sure i have) but this year has been pretty awful imo
only films i could even imagine putting on a top ten any other year are High Life and Us. haven’t gotten to Midsommer yet
undoubtably a weaker first half of the year since maybe 2013 but also check out:
booksmart
far from home
transit
long day's journey into night
midsommar
john wick 3
high flying bird
(not ranked ^)
and its controversial but i really liked dragged across concrete.

yeah, i definitely still have to see stuff - just seems like the good indies so far this year are few and far between. transit and midsommar are on the list, liked booksmart but wasn’t in love like most seem to be
Hollywood has been horrible, but international cinema has been decent in the first half. Hate to sound snobbish, but Americans just have to watch more movies (and read subtitles).

Cannes Festival was very good apparently. I've only seen Parasite, and it was indeed amazing.

don't disagree, but even so this is a weaker year all around for film. lots of 'neat' movies, not so many 'love' movies.
