Slant Magazine's 50 Essential LGBT Films
Favs/dislikes: 12:0. Curated by co-founder and film editor Ed Gonzalez, this 50-wide roster is a singular trove of queer-themed gems and classics, spanning the past eight decades and reflecting artists as diverse as Kenneth Anger, Derek Jarman, and Rainer Werner Fassbinder. You won't find The Birdcage among our ranks, but you will find Paul Morrissey's Trash, Ira Sach's The Delta, David Lynch's Mulholland Drive, and Céline Sciamma's Tomboy. Consider the list a hat tip to what's shaped up to be a banner LGBT year, particularly on screen, with lesbian romance Blue Is the Warmest Color taking top honors at Cannes, and Xavier Dolan releasing the masterful Laurence Anyways, which also made our cut. - R.

Slant's The 50 Best Films of 2021
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. By Slant Staff on December 10, 2021 A staggering number of visceral, ambitious, and glorious movies were released in 2021, covering a vast spectrum of tones, sizes, and intentions. And yet one always encounters people who continue to say that “cinema is dead.” Ask for elaboration and they often say that there’s nothing to see in the theaters, which isn’t, paradoxically, the same as saying that movies are well beyond their expiration date. Instead, movies that people tend to remember and take seriously have mostly scurried to streaming outlets, where they’ve proliferated and mutated in the abundance of choice. For one, the thing we used to call a “documentary” has taken on particularly radical contours, and films like Robert Greene’s Procession, a formally and socially audacious documentary-slash-personal confessional, have come as close as modern cinema has to evoking a stream of consciousness. It’s also playing on Netflix, available to every subscriber, and could easily be mistaken by the uninitiated for the kind of routine true-crime shows in which the outlet specializes. Such realizations lead us back to a familiar refrain: that there are lots of great movies without the theater experience to lend them a patina of exceptionalism. And this complication has been intensified by the Covid-19 pandemic and the panic that it’s understandably inspired in Hollywood, which is more determined than ever to rely on spectacle for the global bucks. The easiest short-term solution is to accept that this theatrical patina—save for the arthouses in the larger cities and the few formally adventurous filmmakers, such as Wes Anderson, who can get his work booked in big theaters—is an outdated notion and reacclimate to reality. For people who aren’t fortunate enough to live near a venue playing, say, Janicza Bravo’s Zola or Hamaguchi Ryûsuke’s Drive My Car, theaters are bloated stadiums playing mega-act dinosaurs, and should be accorded appropriate respect or lack thereof, while the best films are usually hidden somewhere on a streamer’s menu between Hallmark Christmas movies and various seasons of Everyone Loves Raymond. In other words, good movies require the effort of personal vigilance, and the films below merit the expansion of purview. In troubled times, these daring, highly disparate productions show that a cherished medium isn’t only not dying but may, in fact, just be beginning to get its sea legs. Cinema could be evolving into a form that’s more personal and eccentric than ever, in accordance with the newfound intimacy that arrives from learning that theaters can be lovely but are also essentially beside the point.

Editor’s Note: Hong Sang-soo’s [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/dangsin-eolgul-apeseo/]In Front of Your Face[/url], which isn’t scheduled for release until 2022, has been removed from our list due to eligibility criteria.

Sound On Sight: The Definitive Foreign Language Horror Films
Favs/dislikes: 4:0. From the site: "English language film has long been a place for some of the greatest horror film directors of all time. All the way back to Alfred Hitchcock, we have seen the genre grow and develop sub-genres, thanks to the public’s ongoing thirst for fear and the possibility of danger around every turn. But, for every Saw or Hostel or terrible remake of classic English-language horror films, there are inventive, terrifying films made somewhere else that inspire and even outdo many of our best Western world horror films. This list will count down the fifty definitive horror films with a main language that isn’t English; some may have some English-language parts in them, but they are, for the most part, foreign. Enlighten yourself. Broaden your horizons. People can get murdered and tortured in every language." -

Stacker's 50 Movies That Address the History of Racism in America
Favs/dislikes: 5:0. WRITTEN BY ELONA NEAL JANUARY 23, 2021 Movies give us perspective and allow us to watch certain events play out in front of our eyes. They can be educational and entertaining, making proper representation a significant factor in filmmaking. Black representation in Hollywood was almost nonexistent in the early 20th century, and when images of African Americans were shown, they were given negative stereotypes and criticized with racist imagery and oppression. Years of systematic racism riddle the Black community today, but it was even more blatant back then. Young Black children around the country would turn on the television to a lack of positive images outside of racial stereotypes. As the years went on, Black representation slowly but surely began to make its way through the airwaves, and it started to educate people on the realities of Black lives as many Black filmmakers, actors, and writers created a new cycle of Black cinema with a variety of genres. Black films have become a staple in the Black community, leaving long-lasting impacts on the culture for years to come. Black artistry continues to rise in theaters and on television as the industry learns to cater to different skin types, film angles, genre diversities, and plot lines within Black culture. Stacker extensively researched the history of Black filmmaking and Black lives captured on screen in both fiction features and documentaries, and compiled a list of 50 diverse films that address the history of racism in America in one way or the other using IMDb data as of June 3, 2020. To amplify Black voices and firsthand experience, the overwhelming majority of the films on this list are made by Black filmmakers. The films are organized chronologically. Check out these stories that shine a light on Black voices throughout cinema. -

Submissions to the 74th Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has invited the film industries of various countries to submit their best film for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film every year since the award was created in 1956.[1] The award is handed out annually by the Academy to a feature-length motion picture produced outside the United States that contains primarily non-English dialogue. The Foreign Language Film Award Committee oversees the process and reviews all the submitted films. For the 74th Academy Awards, which were held on March 24, 2002, the Academy invited 78 countries to submit films for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Fifty-one countries submitted films to the Academy, including Armenia and Tanzania, all of which submitted films for the first time. Uruguay, whose submission for the 65th Academy Awards was disqualified, submitted an eligible film for the first time. The Academy released a list of the five nominees for the award on February 12, 2002. The winner of the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film was Bosnia and Herzegovina's No Man's Land, which was directed by Danis Tanović. -
