*~*~*~*~* MY FAVOURITE FILMS OF 2012! *~*~*~*~*

[They are my favourites, not necessarily the “best”. What a waste of time calling your list the “best of 2012”)

  1. Margaret (Kenneth Lonergan): In years to come people will be calling this one of the biggest triumphs of modern American cinema. And if not, they should.
  2. Take This Waltz (Sarah Polley)
  3. Martha Marcy May Marlene (Sean Durkin)
  4. Carnage (Roman Polanski)
  5. Michael (Markus Schleinzer):I have a thing for films named after people whose names start with the letter ‘M’)
  6. What Richard Did (Lenny Abrahamson)
  7. Killer Joe (William (K)Fried(C)kin)
  8. The Master (Paul Thomas Anderson)
  9. Project X (Nima Nourizadeh)
  10. This Is Not A Film (Jafar Panahi and Mojtaba Mirtahmasb): Special shoutout to Jafar Panahi’s balls
Lil’ shoutout to the really good ones that got away (11-18 #indecision):
Argo, Amour, Alps, The Kid With A Bike, Skyfall, Killing Them Softly, A Royal Affair, The Perks of Being a Wallflower


all of whom I really wanted to find a place for but lost out because the first ten are IMPORTANT and BRILLIANT and ART and BRILLIANT and CINEMA IS THE ONLY ARTFORM WORTH MY MONEY and those 10 were worth the most…….
Shoutout to some good acting: Greta Gerwig in Damsels In Distress, Anna Paquin in Margaret, Andy Serkis in The Hobbit, Jack Reynor in What Richard Did, Logan Lerman in The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Matthew McConaughey in Magic Mike and Killer Joe, Jordan Gelber in Dark Horse, Meryl Streep in The Iron Lady, Michael Fassbender in Shame You Didn’t Get The Oscar Nom, Anne Hathaway in The Dark Knight Rises and Emanuelle Riva in Amour.


Good directors: Joe Wright for Anna Karenina, Sarah Polley for Take This Waltz, Markus Schleinzer for Michael and Lenny Abrahamson for What Richard Did, Christopher Nolan for The Dark Knight Rises.

Good editing in: Argo, Amour, Alps, Margaret, The Imposter and Project X
Good cinematography: Martha Marcy May Marlene, The Master, Take This Waltz, What Richard Did, A Royal Affair, Michael (every shot and composition in every one of these was either immaculate or relevant to the story - THE WAY EVERY FILM SHOULD BE)

Michael Mallin (Irish: Micheál Ó Mealláin, 1 December 1874 – 8 May 1916) was an Irish rebel and socialist who took an active role in the 1916 Easter Rising. Born in Dublin, Mallin was second in command of the Irish Citizen Army under James Connolly and commanded the garrison at St. Stephen’s Green in Dublin, with Constance Markievicz as his second in command. Mallin had enlisted in the British army as a boy soldier/drummer boy in his early years and served for many years in India. His experiences there radicalised him and manifested itself in his becoming a leading official in the silk weavers union upon his return to Ireland and his acceptance of the post of second in command and chief training officer of the Irish Citizen Army. The ICA was formed after the 1913 general strike in Dublin to protect workers from the RIC and also from employer funded strike breaking gangs. Mallin surrendered on Sunday, 30 April 1916 when ordered to do so by Connolly. At his court-martial he attempted to downplay his involvement. This was understandable as he was a young father of four children and his wife was pregnant with a fifth. In his own statement, Mallin projected himself as a mere tradesman and band leader who had almost by chance become involved in the Irish Citizen Army and the Rising. He sought to exculpate himself from blame by suggesting that he was a mere dupe, obeying orders and ignorant of Connolly’s plans for insurrection. He stated: “I am no commission whatever in the Citizen Army. I was never taken into the confidence of James Connolly. I was under the impression that we were going out for manoeuvres on Sunday.” Once aware that there was to be a rising he claimed that he covertly tried to subvert it. He also claimed that Countess Markievicz was in command, and not second in command to him, and that she had commanded him to take charge of the men on the Monday. However he was convicted and executed by firing squad on 8 May. The prosecutor at his court martial was a Captain Blackadder. In his last letter to his wife, Mallin stated that “I find no fault with the soldiers or the police” and admonished her “to pray for all the souls who fell in this fight, Irish and English.” He commented “so must Irishmen pay for trying to make Ireland a free nation.”
