“I watched these tapes over and over again. They never got old…” And here we go! It’s time for Ehrlich’s video. One of the best 2024 recaps is a video countdown made by my colleague David Ehrlich (follow him @davidehrlich). He recaps his 25 best films of the year in a video edited together with footage and music from the films. It’s one of the best looks back at the year, including footage from plenty of other movies from last year. Have you seen ALL of his favorites from last year? David’s Top 25 of 2024 is as vibrant and fun as always, and you will likely agree with many of his top picks. I’m happy to see tons of underrated favorites: The Outrun, Between the Temples, Furiosa, The Last Showgirl, Close Your Eyes, Hard Truths, Juror #2, The First Omen, and others. Plus all the usual suspects from 2024: Nosferatu, The Substance, The Brutalist, Flow, I Saw the TV Glow, Challengers, Anora, and A Different Man. All of these films rock! As usual, this video is a must watch as a reminder that cinema is always bountiful & exciting year after year. Click play.
