2015 Honorable Mentions

            So as of right now I am working on a rough draft for my top ten of 2015, which will hopefully be published before the Oscar awards in 2017. Orlando is not a very film centric town, which makes it difficult to find many of the prestigious films before awards season. Even then, I am lucky to ever find certain foreign and independent films because distribution the demand for such films here are null. Ultimately in order for me to write a top ten with confidence, I need the time to watch as much as I can.
            Regardless, this has been a robust year for film. In fact were so many distinguished films that to leave one out seemed almost sacrilege.  So at the very the least, it seemed right to honor the best films that will not reach my personal list and hopefully explain why they are not on the shortlist.  It was either that or I lament about the Oscars, which no one wants to here. Now lets talk movies.
