Best Movies of 2007

atonementSo enough time has passed to look back on the year's movies and pick my favourites. And it's never that easy, because some movies don't make you feel great, but are magnificent (No Country For Old Men definitely qualifies in that division for 2008). I had two dilemmas: which of the top 2 films was really my favourite (and I changed my mind 3 or 4 times): should Blood Diamond be at number 10, when the 8 places below it are all of a very similar standard, and, as I hinted before, I actually enjoyed some of them more. That took more thinking about, but you've got to make a decision. So here they are:
