ROUND-UP: My favourite films of 2023
2023 was a great year for cinema, with many new exciting voices emerging as well as old hands coming back with fresh gifts.
It is an ode to the beauty of cinema that every year, filmmakers find new ways of telling old stories as well as new gems of narratives that speak to us of what it feels to be alive and human. The best films are a mirror to ourselves, and these films reflected that for me.
My favourite films of last year.
