Jeffrey Overstreet has been our guide for film viewing for the last several years. We’ve always found his reviews to be insightful, and he’s certainly led us into a deeper appreciation for the poetic and artistic character of good film. A great place to start is with his yearly top ten lists. Here are his lists for 1980-2010. He recently released his lists for 2011, in two parts:
Strongest Impressions of 2011, Part 1
Strongest Impressions of 2011, Part 2
I should also mention that Overstreet is a talented novelist. His books are all worth reading.
While not as canonical for us as his film reviews, his list of top albums for 2011 was just published as well.
