Who recognizes this Oscar winner?

Thanks to @blakethinks.bsky.social (I hope I am not @-ing the wrong person) for talking about Schygulla-esque glamour in a Sight and Sound review for Camp Miasma.

Let's turn that phrase into something we all commonly use!

The last quiz in the series already, as I couldn't find any previous enf-of-year lists by Sight and Sound.

Sight and Sound's Films of the Year - 2011
Can you pick the films that landed in Sight and Sound's Top 10 (well, Top 11) films of the year when given a brief description of the plot?

I love Holy Motors, but there are easier tasks than coming up with a plot description for it.

A briefer quiz than usual - only a Top 10 list was available for this year, at least according to my sources.

I think I got a bit snarky again with one of my plot descriptions in this quiz. See if you can find which one I mean...

A new quiz! And try not to think too hard about the fact that these films are 11 years old already. It might make you feel old yourself.

Learning to love yourself (even if you forget to post the quiz in time again) is indeed the greatest love of all.

I love this show so much, and I am happy it's finally back. (I got this one after clue two, by the way.)

The year is 2017. Critics and film journalists all over the world are so starved for a new David Lynch movie that they collectively decide to pretend the third season of a TV show is a feature film now.

Those were the days.

Finally!
Have you noticed the weather is changing at last? It’s almost as though an icy wind is blowing across the country.

This is exactly the kind of question an AI search engine should, in theory, be useful for - and then it omits Marilyn Monroe, of all people.

New Video🎥

Susan Hayward received her first Best Actress nomination for "Smash-Up: The Story of a Woman".

In my latest video, I explore her early life in Brooklyn and the decade-long struggle to prove herself before becoming one of the most admired leading ladies.

I know, Sight and Sound love themselves some Joanna Hogg, but this #1 choice is a tiny bit ridiculous.

One thing you learn through going through Sight and Sound's Top 10 lists: They really have a thing for Joanna Hogg.

It sounds crazy, but I guess when somebody tells you their only mistake was a Nazi tattoo, its possible they actually made a series of other mistakes that did not happen to produce a Nazi tattoo.
