Sexuality permeates this year's list, along with drifting away from reality and the presence of some obscure films. Checking the
full list of all the films I've seen from this year as I go along, you can see that big, acclaimed works have not even got past the label 'Average'. In their place is one of the first films that I saw depict real sex onscreen, which is also one of the sweetest comedy-dramas I've ever seen, and the last feature David Lynch has made of yet, the first of his I ever saw, leading me to wait in hope he comes back for one or two more in the 2010s. An absurdist Norwegian film and a dramatic thriller from Tajikistan, Satoshi Kon's last ever feature film, two entries from the (Sadly) forgotten
Destricted anthology on sexuality, and the tasteless genius of
Neveldine/Taylor amongst the list.
