Lists-a-Lot
Twitch a Canadian top ten. The only film I'm even vaguely familiar with is Away From Her, which stars the legendary Julie Christie and will have a US release next year. Anyone wanna share info on the others?
Slant Ed & Nick deliver their top tens. (I wish Slant's lists weren't always so similar to one anothers but I don't mean that as a dig. It's just an observation. It's a thing that happens with other collective outlets too --an indication, perhaps, that the writers see or at least discuss all the movies together? Or maybe it's just that they hire people with similar taste so that the outlet has a specific aesthetic pov. I don't know. Just thinking aloud. But you see this elsewhere too. Again, not really about Slant. But I think who you view and discuss movies with does very much effect your reaction to said movies)
LA Times best of 2006
Dreamgirls
Hollywood Elsewhere Jennifer Holliday is upset about Dreamgirls but I wonder if she weren't an apparent recluse if she could've been in it? The always entertaining Loretta Devine (Crash, Boston Public), also a member of Dreamgirls original cast --she played Lorell, Anika Noni Rose's part now-- got not just a cameo but a cameo with a solo musical number.
