(August 2007 - January 2008) Alice in Wonderland has got to be my favorite film of the year. It's probably my favorite Disney film as well. It's just so unusual and fascinating. A Place in the Sun is also terrific. I enjoyed the incredible performances in A Streetcar Named Desire. The Thing from Another World is a great monster movie. Showboat is great thanks to Ava Gardner. I also really enjoyed The White Sheik, which is my first foray into the films of Fellini. I'm already a fan!

Top Ten -- The African Queen, Alice in Wonderland, An American in Paris, Detective Story, A Place in the Sun, Show Boat, Strangers on a Train, A Streetcar Named Desire, The Thing from Another World, The White Sheik
