My Entry for The Auteurs Best of the Decade Poll

By: Marko

I’m surprised how heavily my list favours the United States, but this is what my top ten of the decade looks like. Personally, I don’t think it was even close to being one of the best decades in cinema history, but there were still some gems. I realize now that I spent much of the last few years catching up on cinema that I had missed from previous decades, missing out on much of what this past decade had to offer.
