As the year comes to an end we’re starting to think about the cinematic highlights of 2017 and we’ll be posting some of our favourite films in a few weeks’ time. As I started to think about my own list I realised that I’ve missed a lot of films that are showing up in other end of year lists. So here, in no particular order, is a top ten list of (possibly) the best films I didn’t see this year:
- In Between
- The Beguiled
- Elle
- I Am Not Your Negro
- Lady Macbeth
- Personal Shopper
- A Quiet Passion
- The Levelling
- My Cousin Rachel
- The Party
I’m going to try and catch up with some of these (Elle and A Quiet Passion are both on Netflix and I Am Not Your Negro and Lady Macbeth are included in Amazon Prime) which do you recommend I should see first? Also do let us know what your favourite films are and we can include them in our end of year round up. If you need a reminder of everything that has been shown at the Picture House this year, we have a list here.

Stephen,
I reckon the best film in the list is ‘I am Not Our Negro’ and I was also impressed with ‘The Party’.
For the me the most serious omission of the year was the scarcity of Soviet Classics and that is down to our distributors and exhibitors.
