List: Top 10 Movies of 2006

This week on Episode 288 of the InSession Film Podcast, we continued our year-by-year retrospective series by taking a look at 2006, a pretty great year for film despite a lack of consistency. It may have been slightly top heavy with films such as Children of Men, Pan’s Labyrinth, and Letters from Iwo Jima – films that will go down as some of the very best of all-time in their respective genres – but there were also some great hidden gems. So, this exercise was still a great challenge. However we were ultimately very satisfied with our selections and we hope you enjoy them as well.

NOTE: On #288 we only discussed our Top 5 movies of 2006, so be sure to listen to the show to hear us discuss why these particular films were the very best of that year. However, as you’ll see below, we have listed our full Top 20 lists from 2006.
