26th "An Irish Person" FILM Awards RECAP!!


While 2020 proved to be a weird year due to theatres not being opened thankfully half way through 2021 that changed and many including myself got to go see films in screening rooms together. This year I managed to recognise 47 films with at least one nomination. The fact that I managed to make a list this large with only 10 months of eligible releases shows how varied the great films truly were this year. Only four films (Flee, Passing, The Power of the Dog, West Side Story) received above 5 nominations for me and given how the academy which are awarding their prizes today also managed to spread the wealth when it came to nominating films goes to show how strong cinema continues to be. My top 10 goes to show how varied the really great films were this year.

1. Flee

2. The Power of the Dog

3. Passing

4. Summer of Soul (...Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised)

5. Quo Vadis, Aida?

6. Shiva Baby

7. Parallel Mothers

8. The Velvet Underground

9. The Lost Daughter

10. The Worst Person in the World
