This Video Countdown Highlights 25 of The Best Films of 2019

2019 was packed full of a lot of great films worthy of our time and attention. It was actually pretty easy for me to come up with my own personal list, which you can check out right here. I only had about 15 on my list, but this video highlights 25 films that the video editor, David Dhrlich, felt where the best.

You may agree with some of his choices and you may disagree with some of them, but it’s a great way to start a discussion on what some of our favorite films of the year are versus what some of the best are. Sometimes our favorites don’t align with what are considered to be the best.
