Currently writing, I’ll go with Hoberman (tops), Rosenbaum, Kent Jones (and most of the Film Comment crew) and Ed Gonzalez (he’s become less prolific and more battle-ready of late). When I get a chance to, I like reading Armond White, Dennis Lim, Amy Taubin, Manohla Dargis, A.O. Scott, Nathan Lee… that crowd. Online and bloggers I scope out when I can include Nathan Lee, Nathaniel Rogers (the best Oscar dude out there), a couple of the House Next Door crew, Reverse Shot and a few more I’m forgetting right now. But, seriously, Hoberman pwns today’s crop.
Before Sunset (Richard Linklater)
A History of Violence (David Cronenberg – not an American director, but surely it’s an American film)
Marie Antoinette (Sofia Coppola)
Million Dollar Baby (Clint Eastwood)
The New World (Terrence Malick)
No Country for Old Men (Joel & Ethan Coen)
Rachel Getting Married (Jonathan Demme)
Zodiac (David Fincher)
