If you’re new here, my movie-watching “year” aligns with the Oscars. I watched over 560 films from April 1, 2022, to February 28, 2023. To no one’s shock, when I started making my standard “top 25” of the year, I was up against almost impossible odds. Most of the 560+ films I watched were new releases during that period, so there was a lot to pick from.
