The FCP Top Five - Movies of the Decade
For our January FCP Top Five, we decided to gaze back through the years and ponder the cinematic gems that we defend are the best films of the last ten years. Films were considered for concepts such as their aesthetically-pleasing look, cultural influence and spectacular plot. Or if we thought the movie was just plain AWESOME. The following list required some personal consideration followed by a little nostalgia and much heated debate. However...t  his month's list is only a true top five in the sense that the five of us each defend that our own individual lists prove superior over everyone else's. After one extended staff meeting, a series of "do-over" voting sessions and some time apart, we could only bring ourselves to agree on three (3) films that would make a collective list. And they are (most loved first): Amelie
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Little Miss Sunshine Any of the following films could have made our list were we able to put our differences and our egos aside (in no particular order): The Royal Tenenbaums No Country for Old Men City of God Ratatouille Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon Pan's Labrynth Given the level of debate between the five of us alone, we can imagine that you would not agree with our list.
