I know, it's early but you can always update lists - and include 2023 if you want - I have seen some good stuff and it's been all random with no plan..........the ones of note for me through March: Features:The Strangler (1970) Death By Hanging (1968) Dry Summer (1963) The Quiet Family (1998) Cell 211 (2009) Secrets (1977) - Directed by Michael J. Murphy ...........A guilty pleasure ........not good - at all ......... but so bad it gets kinda oddly good at the end.......needs a remake...............badly.........the premise is Gothic Horror Trash Soap worthy of a De Palma rethink........the cast is quite amateurish ..........which both hurts and is wonderfully, unintentionally funny..........fascinating obscurity........ Shorts:The Pricemaster (2001)  |

It's The Young Girls of Rochefort for me, with Before the Devil Knows You're Dead trailing behind. Only other standout has been The Artifice Girl (which is my current #1 of the year), which had a 2022 festival date so it sorta counts

nothing that special yet. Burmese Harp (1956) was really moving and I also liked Sirk's The Tarnished Angels (1957), but not as much as his others.
(maybe a mod can pin this?)
