Comments, comments..! Let's see... for some reason, I pictured you placing Donnie Darko a little higher. & you never told me you actually watched Der Baader-Meinhof Complex! You mentioned it, but never that you watched it. So Adaptation was good then..? Hurray for Slumdog love =) And because I am a boy, The Bourne Identity might be a little higher. ha! I still need to discuss The Messenger with you, which I should probably do immediately following this reply. Hopefully I do not forget. Whoops! =[ I added #s 59 & 60 to my Netflix queue because they sound good. I am a little confused about De Fem Benspænd though -- is it a documentary? An Education is another film that I have to discuss with you. So good! I have Il Y A Longtemps Que Je t'Aime on my instant queue. I need to watch that one. Was it A Serious Man that you got confused with A Single Man..?! Because I think I was confused myself when you mentioned it on my blog a while back! I am surprised to see that you enjoyed C.R.A.Z.Y. as much as you did! It really is one of those epic films though, I have to admit, and wow, what a soundtrack to boot. Oh yes, I am enjoying your entire top 20 list. I cannot say enough good things about many of the top 20 films you have, but I do have to confess something: I have never seen Eternal Sunshine. Isn't that crazy?! Also, I came *this close* to mentioning the absence of Todo Sobre Mi Madre in your list... then I researched & found it was made in 1999, which disqualifies it from this list!

This is a great list of films. You have an eye for great cinema as well as an appreciation for a good entertaining story. You've reminded me of so many good films that I had forgotten and now need to revisit as well as a few I need to seek out and explore.

You surprised me by not putting "the Departed" on it. But, ESotSM was a pretty good movie, and there are some other really good ones on here as well. So, all in all, not a bad list. Good job, Allison!

Thanks. I think that actually The Departed made an early version of the list, but then I had to make room for a few more films. It was definitely one of the best of 2006.
