Since it’s far too early for me to share my ten favorite films of 2010, let’s pass the time by reflecting on those films that are celebrating their 20th anniversary.

- Close-Up
- Miller’s Crossing
- The Unbelievable Truth
- Metropolitan
- The Tall Guy
- Edward Scissorhands
- Cry-baby
- The Hairdresser’s Husband

Others worth mentioning:

- Goodfellas
- La Femme Nikita
- Jacob’s Ladder
- Wild at Heart

And while we’re at it: What were your favorite films of 1980… the movies joining the 30-Year Club?
Me? Well, what if I haven’t seen many 1980 films. I was ten, and movies weren’t very popular in my community, so… this is the best I can do. And I still haven’t seen The Blues Brothers or The Elephant Man. Sorry.
