Episode 57 - Best films of 2018

Monday, January 7, 2019 • Duration 01:24:30

The "I find myself embracing Hollywood manipulation so readily these days" edition. Before we dive into the murky riches of 2019's summer slate, the Cultural Capital team, with some help from the MIFF Critics Campus, count down their favourite films of 2018. While in other parts of the world, this is a pretty straightforward affair, due to the vagaries of international releasing strategies, Australian cinephiles blend 2017 awards contenders - released here in January and February, 2018 - with those crammed into the last days of the year. And, much like an extremely well-made summer trifle, it's a delicious mess of vicious contrasts and complimentary additions. 00:45 Bodied 05:24 BPM 09:41 Black Mirror: Bandersnatch 13:14 Burning 17:35 Claire White on Columbus and Skate Kitchen 19:44 Zama 22:33 James Waters on Zama 24:04 Black Panther 26:45 BPM 29:52 Private Life 34:40 The Favourite 38:12 Spiderman: Into the Spiderverse 42:02 Cold War 48:44 Roma 54:47 Eliza Jansson on The Rider 56:48 Ivana Brehas on Burning and Let the Corpses Tan 58:08 Cultural Capital Film Diary 1:02:20 Anders' number 1 1:08:00 Eloise's number 1 1:13:08 Andy's number 1 1:15:27 Films that nearly made our lists Find us: Twitter: TheCultCapPod Facebook: Cultural Capital Podcast Instagram: CulturalCapitalPodcast
