12. Little Miss Sunshine (2006)

One of my favorite movies and by far the best road trip movie of all time. When people ask for movie recommendations I almost always pull this out of my pocket. Great colors, soundtrack and cast.

11. Interstellar (2014)

I watched Interstellar for the first time this year, and then again only a couple of weeks later in IMAX. It hits different on the second watch I shed some tears when I didn't expect to!

10. The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)

I've seen The Rocky Horror Picture Show more times than I can count, but something always surprises me during each watch. This round specifically was in Paris with a French shadow cast and they were so freaking hilarious.

9. Stop Making Sense (1984)

I got REALLY into Talking Heads in 2024 so seeing this in IMAX was so fucking cool. I usually turn my nose up at concert films but this is just something else.

8. My Life as a Zucchini (2016)

This is a French animated film about a kid who becomes orphaned in a pretty tragic way. It made me sob so hard I cannot recommend it enough!!!

7. I Used to Be Funny (2023)

This is a really interesting take on PTSD and Rachel Sennott is, as always, incredible. The soundtrack is really good, too.

6. Swiss Army Man (2016)

This is a classic - Paul Dano drags around Daniel Radcliffe, who is a corpse! Surprisingly heartwarming.

5. MaXXXine (2024)

This is the lowest-rated installment of the X/Pearl trilogy but I loved it and think it's a good subversion of horror tropes.

4. Anaïs in Love (2021)

Queer and messy in the best way! Funny, unexpected, tragic, beautiful. It's also in French.

3. Rye Lane (2023)

Another one of my favorite romcoms. In my review I called it "honey on toast," "warm sunlight on a chilly day" and "a cup of coffee with the perfect amount of creamer." It feels more based in reality than other romantic comedies & takes full advantage of its format.

2. Asteroid City (2023)

When this was first in theaters I saw it three times at three different theaters. The soundtrack is aaammmaaazzzziiiingggg and I love that it's a play within a television broadcast within a movie. Who said movies need to make perfect sense to be good??

1. Imagine Me & You (2005)

A bride falls in love with her florist -- this is my favorite romcom ever. It's wayy before it's time and it has an awesome romcom run.
