You're gonna be bothered by how cool I am.

It ran 26.5 hours this year, and it was EPIC. As always, a list of the titles and very brief thoughts before crashing. Bold titles were premieres.

1. Faust (1926) - Murnau's silent film with live organ score
2. The Lovely Bones (2009) - Peter Jackson does grief, and beautifully
3. Girl Crazy (1943) - Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland in what I think must have been the inspiration for the stage musical Crazy For You
4. The Red Shoes (1948) - programmed by Martin Scorsese; there are no words for how beautiful this film is
5. Shutter Island (2010) - SO GOOD
6. Le Magnifique (1973) - lol French comedy of the 1970s
7. Micmacs (2010) - new film from Jeunet, director of Amelie
8. Frozen (2010) - the reason I will never go skiing ever
9. Centipede Horror (1973) - banned insect horror from the Shaw Brothers
10. The Candy Snatchers (1973) - fairly tepid kidnapping thriller with Most Awesome Toddler Ever
11. Kick-Ass (2010) - most accurately titled film in the lineup; just DUDE (special guests for this screening)
12. Avatar (2009) - yes, it lives up to the hype; wow is about all I can coherently say about right now
