First Half Movies, 2007

Based entirely on arbitrary criteria, here is my list for the first half of 2007. As I've done before, "Not necessarily the ten that I enjoyed the most, but the ten that I would make you watch if I could, perhaps the ten I would program if I had a film series." They are unordered.

• The Ipcress File [Sidney J. Furie, 1965]
• Woman on the Beach [Hong Sang-soo, 2006]
• Killer of Sheep [Charles Burnett, 1977]
• Exiled [Johnnie To, 2006]
• Zoo [Robinson Devor, 2007]
• The Boss of It All [Lars von Trier, 2007]
• Mister Roberts [John Ford/Joshua Logan, 1955]
• Memories of Murder [Bong Joon-ho, 2003]
• Once Upon a Time in the West [Sergio Leone, 1968]
• My Darling Clementine [John Ford, 1946]
