Senses of Cinema World Poll 2012 online


Leos Carax: Holy Motors (FR 2012).

There are many "best films of 2012" lists online, all interesting. The largest compilation may be in Senses of Cinema, published on 8 January, 2013.

A long and rambling chain of lists of the best films of the year can be found in Dave Kehr's blog under the headline "Hello, I Must Be Going", launched on 26 December, 2012.

Both sites acknowledge both new films and rediscoveries of classics.

I have copied on my site also
Sight & Sound: The Best of 2012
Academy Awards: Nine foreign film nominees
Village Voice Film Poll 2012
Film Comment: 50 Best Released Films of 2012
Film Comment: 50 Best Undistributed Films of 2012
Cahiers du Cinéma: Le Top Ten 2012

I compiled my own top list originally for Senses of Cinema in early December, covering the films I saw in January-November. I updated it slightly for Dave Kehr's blog, and revised it a bit more in a version of My Best Films of 2012 on my own blog on 1 January 2013.

Finnish lists of the best films of 2012 include:
Kalle Kinnunen: Top Ten
Kalle Kinnunen: Thirteen More
Jutta Sarhimaa: Top Twenty
Jukka Kangasjärvi: The Best of 2012
Sami Pöyry: The Best of 2012
Olli Sulopuisto: The Best of the Finnish Film Bloggers 2012 (15 lists)
Alina Kangasluoma: The Best of 2012
Lauri Ojanen: The Best of 2012
