Second Aquarius. Regarding Twin Peaks: The Return, I'm with Overstreet. It's easily one of the best things I've seen this year, and I'm of a mind to include it on the list. Sure, it's technically television, but Lynch's vision and execution supersede that label. If other jurors don't agree that it should be on the list, I'd propose that it we keep it in the vote, and if voted in, it could be included as a Special Mention category of some sort.

Thanks for organizing this, Joel! I have seen fewer films than usual this year, but I'd like to nominate the following: Song To Song (Terrence Malick) Sleep Has Her House (Scott Barley) Split (M. Night Shyamalan) Good Time (Ben Safdie, Josh Safdie) Milla (Valérie Massadian) Western (Valeska Grisebach) 24 Frames (Abbas Kiarostami)

2017 Arts & Faith Ecumenical Jury
Josh Hamm replied to kenmorefield's topic in The Arts & Faith Ecumenical Jury
I haven't been writing as much as I have in the past, but I'd enjoy being part of the jury again. -
I'll second The Invitation and The Treasure . I'd also like to nominate Never Eat Alone by Sofia Bohdanowicz (I have a screener for it, so PM me if you want a link). It's a slight, minor independent film from Canada (premiered this year, but doesn't have distribution to my knowledge), it’s also one of the most precious, tender films I’ve seen all year, and easily one of my favourites. There are few films in 2016 as emotionally resonant as this one. It is a rare film whose plot is perfectly encompassed by its thematic conceits, in which form and narrative are codependent. Docufiction,

2015 Critic lists, Awards, Etc.
Josh Hamm replied to Tyler's topic in Film Awards, Festivals, & Lists
Near the end of last year, as I was mulling over my favourite films of the year, I realized how many great first features were released in 2015. So here's my Top 30 Debut Films of 2015 , published at PopOptiq. -
Thanks for sharing this, Darren. In the Shadow of Women was my first Garrel, and at the time I saw it, I wasn't quite sure how to approach it. This interview is the sort of source I've been needing to immerse myself in to help my relationship with the film.

In the theatre, that party scene was puzzling to me as well (partially due to the face recognition of Brownstein, only for the scene to fizzle out). It turns out Haynes did pare it down for length.
