Happy Thursday and welcome back to Smash Cut, the internet’s most consistently inconsistent movie newsletter! It’s July, which means two things. One, my birthday is coming up. Leo szn! And two, it’s time to talk about the best movies of the year so far.
2022 has been the first movie year since the pandemic began that we’ve seen some semblance of normalcy. However, many the movies on this list feel like they were born out of the societal, political, and ~*vibe*~ shifts we’ve experienced in the pandemic era resulting in an eclectic mix of faves.
Over the next three weeks, in no particular order, I’m going to share my 15 favorite movies of the year so far. Let me know your favorites by responding to this email! Maybe I’ll include it in a future edition (or maybe not, it is my newsletter after all). Have a great weekend. ❤️ Karl
