Favorite Films Viewed in 2011
By: Christofer Pierson
In the order in which I viewed them, these are films viewed for the first time in 2011 that I enjoyed the most, which is to say, those I would recommend to any serious film goer as worth viewing on any number of criteria, from plain aesthetics and depth of emotional and intellectual response to pure entertainment value. To be clear, these films were not necessarily released in 2011, just among those I viewed for the first time.
