2010 was also the year of Mysteries of Lisbon, Certified Copy, Poetry, Meek’s Cutoff, White Material, My Joy, Nostalgia for the Light, Carlos, Everyone Else, Mother. I don't think all of them had showings in the US that year though

what is this "VVitch" thing? is that how the title of the Eggers film is spelled?

Contemplating my own year-end list possibilities, I don't think any film has meant as much to me this year as the "Co-Op" episode of Documentary Now.
