2020 movies movie#

in 2020 are included on this list, which explains the absence of both First Cow and Beanpole - movies I adored, but that I included on my 2019 list. The fine print: Only films that premiered in the U.S. But I won't forget this weird - and often wonderful - year of movies. I'll buy a bucket full of popcorn (and, let's be honest, I'll probably dunk my whole head in it out of euphoria).

Next year I imagine, sometime when I'm fresh off my second coronavirus vaccine shot, I'll go to a movie theater again. Movies that would have been drowned out any other year were given the space to rise to the top. This was a year cinema didn't only survive, it thrived. Still, I came away with immense hope for the industry. Poor quality abounded there were lags, heavily watermarked press screeners, abundant technical difficulties. Weeks later, America would be in the thick of its own enormous outbreak - and Hollywood would begin its slow, and perhaps irrevocable, adaptation to the circumstances.ДЄs a consequence, I watched every one of the year's best movies listed here on a laptop screen (or mirrored from my laptop onto my TV). Smash cut to March, when the new James Bond movie, No Time to Die, was delayed seven months due to concerns about the 'global theatrical marketplace,' as theaters in China shuttered over the coronavirus outbreak. In retrospect, it was the perfect way to go out: Though none of us knew it then, it was to be one of the last big, glitzy, and thoroughly enjoyable blockbusters on the big screen this year. The last movie I saw in a theater in 2020 was Birds of Prey, at the AMC in Times Square.
