Happy New Decade!

That's right, not only has a year ended, but so has a decade. (Well, technically speaking, we still have another year for the latter, but no one follows that rule.)

Anyway, as of right now, my current top ten of the decade goes like this:

1. Moolaade (Ousmane Sembene, 2004, Senegal)
2. Waking Life (Richard Linklater, 2001, USA)
3. Elephant (Gus van Sant, 2003, USA)
4. Russian Ark (Aleksandr Sokurov, 2002, Russia)
5. L'Enfant (Jean-Pierre Dardenne & Luc Dardenne, 2005, Belgium)
6. A.I. Artificial Intelligence (Steven Spielberg, 2001, USA)
7. Waltz with Bashir (Ari Folman, 2008, Israel)
8. The House of Mirth (Terence Davies, 2000, UK)
9. Mulholland Dr. (David Lynch, 2001, France)
10. Cache (Michael Haneke, 2005, France)
