The San Francisco Bay Area is still home to a rich cinephilic culture nurtured in large part by a diverse array of cinemas, programmers and moviegoers. I'm honored to present a selection of favorite screenings experienced by local cinephiles in 2018. An index of participants can be found here.

2. Satantango - Béla Tarr, (PFA) Much more than a great film. Much more. More.
3. The Apple - Samira Makhmalbaf, (PFA) I can see what she did – there is little mystery to the mechanics of it. But what she did, and the way she did it, is so, so great!
4. The Hart of London - Jack Chambers (Artists' Television Access by San Francisco Cinematheque) A film that remains the single most memorable, shocking, beautiful, haunting and amazing film, for me, of the last few years.
2017
The First Teacher - Andrei Konchalovsky (PFA)
