2012 MY Picks - Movies

There were huge blockbusters like The Avengers last year, one of the biggest openings of all time. The well anticipated The Dark Knight Rises, The Hobbit, Skyfall, The Life of Pi, The Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn Part. II (at least for me) and etc. And there were well made low bud, indie flicks like 360, Premium Rush, Prefect Pitch... The ones which made into my top 10 somehow strayed a little away from the mean stream. Of course one or two big production did make into the list.

There are not in any order. 

The Perk of Being a Wallflower – Stephen Chbosky

The Dark Knight Rises – Christopher Nolan

Noordzee, Texas (North Sea Taxes) – Bavo Defurne

Dans La Maison (In the House) - François Ozon

The Words – Brian Klugman, Lee Sternthal

Moonrise Kingdom – Wes Anderson

Perfect Sense – David Mackenzie

Shame – Steve McQueen

Les Misérables – Tom Hooper
W.E - Madonna
