On episode 268 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade, Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello, and AwardsWatch contributors Dan Bayer, Cody Dericks, Jay Ledbetter, Josh Parham, Karen Peterson, Trace Sauveur, and Griffin Schiller breakdown their favorite films of 2024.
As we are about to begin an exciting new year of cinema in 2025, we say goodbye to 2024 with our AW team’s favorite films of the year. Instead of having everyone on one call together, the show is split up into six sections, each section covering the six films the team loved the most. Those films included Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu (Karen and Griffin), Radu Jude’s Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World (Trace), Payal Kapadia’s All We Imagine as Light (Josh) Jane Schoenbrun’s I Saw the TV Glow (Dan and Cody), RaMell Ross’ Nickel Boys (Erik and Jay), and Brady Corbet’s The Brutalist (Ryan and Sophia).
In each segment, each person talks about why they selected the film as their favorite of the year, as well as an in-depth discussion over the film. At the end, the team gave honorable mentions for other films that they loved that included Challengers, Queer, Juror #2, Maria, Hit Man, Babygirl, Hundreds of Beavers, Hard Truths, Anora, Trap, Dahomey, The Substance, and many more. Please enjoy this wonderful last episode of 2024, thank you all for reading everything on the website as well as listening to the show this past year. We here at AwardsWatch hope you all have a Happy New Year.
