As we near the end of the second decade of the millennium, I have been giving a great deal of thought and attention to the films I love released since 2010. The 20 (or 19 as to leave space for one more) masterpieces listed below include 3 or 4 films that may be considered documentary depending on how that modality is defined. The films are listed in what I take to be, roughly speaking, their chronological order of their world release. The last film to include on any list perhaps should always be a toss up, a matter for personal debate: Is it Alonso's "Jauja", Lav Diaz's "Norte", or "Only Lovers Left Alive"?
