Hoai-Tran Bui's Top 10 Films of 2020

Posted on Wednesday, January 6th, 2021 by Hoai-Tran Bui
There’s the temptation every year to say, “This was a bad year for movies,” which is rarely ever the case. But 2020 certainly flirted with that idea, with the pandemic pushing many studio films to next year and making all other films nearly impossible to watch without a press badge at a film festival. More than anything, it was a weird year for movies, a year where entertainment became a safe haven from the horrors of reality and where we all flocked to films that either comforted us, or numbed us, or dared us to find the awful parallels in our entertainment and the real world.

From corruption to summer camp: the best documentaries of 2020

Last modified on Wed 30 Dec 2020 03.21 EST
Collective
“Plays like a thriller” can be trite when describing a documentary but in the case of Collective, Alexander Nanau’s watchful, truly galling film on the corruption-addled aftermath of a 2015 club fire in Bucharest, the description holds water. The two-hour film plays like the best of journalism features, from All the President’s Men to Spotlight, as a team of sports journalists – seemingly the only ones asking the government difficult questions – burrow into layer upon jaw-dropping layer of grift in the Romanian healthcare system. Twenty-seven people died in the fire at the nightclub Colectiv, but another 37 died from treatable wounds in the following weeks, many from bacterial infections caught in the country’s bribery-laced hospitals. Nanau’s hawk-eyed camera watches from car stakeouts, press conference audiences, and meeting rooms, as journalists expose a system mottled with rot. How to uncover truth the powerful seek buried? How to even bend a system resistant to change? Those questions, and the searing crusade of Collective, extend far past Romania.

The 10 Best International Movies of 2020

The 10 Best International Movies of 2020

The Golden Globes’ racist disqualification of filmmaker Lee Isaac Chung’s American-made
Minari from its Best Picture categories will not be the last debacle from the embarrassing awards body—one that shouldn’t be given the time of day by anyone that enjoys movies nor screen time on a major network—but it does at least provide a jumping-off point to highlight the best movies of the year that were
actually produced outside the United States.
Though, of course, all genres were well-represented this year in the global film industry, documentaries from around the world should be given special consideration. After all, in a year when virtual cinemas, streamers and online festivals overran traditional theatrical moviegoing, docs saw increases in audience and distribution possibilities. You might note that our larger Best Documentaries list features more non-U.S. entries than any other of our 2020 film lists. Yet, in a larger sense, international movies found similar traction across the board stateside thanks in part to the indie, arthouse feel that define many that reach the U.S and the distribution methods that accompany that style of film. They might not have made as big an initial splash as if they’d hit the theater in a normal year, but incredible achievements in drama (

Thrills, spills and chills...

It wasn't so bad in the end, at least where cinema was concerned. Even with all those tentpole releases pushed back to next year, 2020 was so thronged with quality movie titles that narrowing down this selection of the best titles was quite a task.
With theatrical releases few and far between, we found ourselves excellently served by platforms such as Curzon, IFI@Home, and Netflix (which emerged as a feature-film market leader). When cinemas could be returned to in safety, there were still home-grown wonders and big-studio productions worth venturing out for, with the odd bloated anti-climax thrown in for good measure (Christopher Nolan's Tenet was hugely disappointing).

The Painter and the Thief: Why this doco is unlike anything you've seen before

The Painter and the Thief (M, 102 mins) Directed by Benjamin Ree *****
Norwegian film-maker Benjamin Ree had long been fascinated by the subject of art theft and was actively looking for a story to tell, when he happened on an account of an otherwise unremarkable gallery heist in Oslo.
The artist whose works were taken – Barbora Kysilkova – was not particularly well-known. She didn't have any international profile. Although, after seeing some of her work, you may well ask, “why not?”
The thieves were easily and quickly caught. Their faces were clearly visible on security camera files and they were both already known to the local police.

This is my 19th Ten Best Movies list for this newspaper and it comes out in a social and cultural landscape more transformed than any in my two decades at the Globe. Because of the pandemic, theaters have been closed for much of the year and sparsely attended when theyâve been open. Because of the pandemic, millions of people have stayed indoors watching entertainments streaming through their TV sets and laptops.

The 25 Best Documentaries of 2020

The 25 Best Documentaries of 2020
Though the pandemic has all but murdered moviegoing in 2020, for the lowly documentary film, the distribution landscape has never looked more promising. Often relegated to festivals and then, if fortune-favored, Netflix or HBO, documentaries rarely receive the attention or the right platform to reach more than a specialized audience. If it seems like 2020 was a particularly bright year for documentaries, that might be because you could actually watch many of these at home, streaming through virtual cinemas or online festivals or via services like Mubi and Kanopy (off the top of the dome).
In the spirit of such bounty, the following 25 documentaries cover a broad swath of picks: Jodie Mack’s feature-length
