This week on Episode 688 of the InSession Film Podcast, we discussed our Top 5 A24 movies! A24 came onto the scenes in the 2010s in a big way. Their second movie ever was Spring Breakers, a film we’ve talked about a lot over the years. It didn’t take long for cinephiles to take notice of the great movies they were distributing. They even have a best picture winner on their hands, and it’s arguably the best Oscar winner of that particular decade. Which is to say, they have no shortage of amazing movies and it was extremely difficult to narrow this down to a five. That said, here are our lists:
(Note: Please keep in mind that we each had different criteria for our selections)
JD
1) Aftersun
2) Lady Bird
3) Spring Breakers
4) The Zone of Interest
5) The Florida Project
Megan
1) Moonlight
2) Past Lives
3) Sorry, Baby
4) I Saw the TV Glow
5) American Honey
Honorable Mentions (Combined)
First Cow, Ex Machina, Under the Skin, Krisha, After Yang, A Different Man, Saint Maude, The Witch, The Green Knight, All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt, A Ghost Story, The Brutalist, Priscilla, Causeway, Marty Supreme, Sing Sing, If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, Locke, The Last Black Man in San Francisco, First Reformed, The Lobster, Janet Planet, The Farewell, Eighth Grade, High Life, Queer, A Most Violent Year, C’mon C’mon, Mother Mary, On Becoming A Guinea Fowl, Lean on Pete, Obvious Child and so many more
Hopefully you guys enjoyed our lists, and if you agree or disagree with us, let us know in the comment section below. There are obviously many more A24 movies that we didn’t have time to mention. That is to say, your list could look very different than ours given the great films and memorable sequences we saw over the last year. That being said, what would be your Top 5?
