The annual Cahiers Du Cinema favorites list tends to be a check-in with some of the most unpredictable critics in Europe. The long-running French magazine tends to lean towards the austere, and their lists vary, sometimes tossing in television for good measure. due to the late European release of First Cow, Kelly Reichardt is the sole female filmmaker present. also of note is that this is a rare low number of films without semi-wide US releases, with All Hands on Deck and The Girl & the Spider as two more under the radar choices.
First Cow (Kelly Reichardt)
Annette (Leos Carax)
Memoria (Apichatpong Weerasethakul)
