Summer 2010... RANKED
By: Zachary George Najarian-Najafi
Well, with Labor Day weekend ending my summer has for the most part officially ended even though school started last Wednesday. Summer 2010 was a transformative time in my life, not just for my life, but for the way I looked at the cinema in general. I feel my taste has changed so much over the summer, and many films I thought I’d love I wound up not loving and vice versa. Anyway enough bullshit, here’s the list.
