If anyone is interested, here is President Obama's favourite movie list of 2018:
“Annihilation”
“Black Panther”
“BlacKkKlansman”
“Blindspotting”
“Burning”
“The Death of Stalin”
“Eighth Grade”
“If Beale Street Could Talk”
“Leave No Trace”
“Minding the Gap”
“The Rider”
“Roma”
“Shoplifters”
“Support the Girls”
“Won’t You Be My Neighbor”
I have seen the majority of them, and in my opinion, this is a decent list. The quality is definitely there, and it is also quite diverse. I am really glad to see Leave No Trace and Annihilation on there, because the former is a very rich and thought-provoking drama, while the latter continue to baffle and make me think, which is the hallmark of a good science-fiction film. Eighth Grade is also a welcome surprise, because even though coming-of-age films are dime a dozen these days, this one still manages to capture the doubts and apprehensive of growing up, especially in this social media age. It is impressive that this is the directorial debut of a social media star, no less, because he showed a very sure hand.
