   • Licorice Pizza. Film. Comedy. What a joy Paul Thomas Anderson’s freewheeling film turned out to be. It cartwheels around the San Fernando Valley armed with all the local knowledge you’d expect (PTA, of course, grew up there), a cast of maverick characters – real (Bradley Cooper’s deranged movie exec Jon Peters) and otherwise (Sean Penn’s William Holden-like Hollywood warhorse, Jack Holden) – and a script loaded with zingers.
   • Nomadland. Film. Drama. A van-dweller who drives across the US badlands and shits in a bucket is not normally what Best Picture winners are made of. But with a commanding Frances McDormand at the wheel, support from a cast of real-life nomads and indie superstar Chloé Zhao behind the camera, Nomadland was a naturalist drama that got right under the skin of late capitalist America and its disenfranchised outsiders.
   • The Father. Film. Drama. Anthony Hopkins was a deserving Best Actor winner for his lead role in a dementia drama with a twist. But major props, too, to director Florian Zeller.
   • The Power of the Dog. Jane Campion hadn’t made a movie since Bright Star nearly 15 years ago. As Twitter might have put it: ‘Da fuk, #Camps?!’ Her subversive western showed what we’ve all been missing: superlative control of mood, glorious widescreen vistas and a smuggled-in subtext that uses the traditional trappings of the western to strip down alpha masculinity to its faulty parts.

   Is 2021 a good year for cinema?

   • From an artistic perspective, 2021 has been an excellent cinematic vintage, yet the bounty is shadowed by an air of doom. The reopening of theatres has brought many great movies—some of which were postponed from last year—to the big screen, but fewer people to see them. The biggest successes, as usual, have been superhero and franchise films.

   Should you read Ebert's 'the Great Movies' book?

   • Yes, you should definitely add any volume from Ebert’s “The Great Movies” collection to your bookshelf. But just as important as the Pulitzer Prize-winning critic’s raves are the scathing takedowns that, in many cases, are even more fun than the movies themselves.
