Best Film of the Year

I did not see most of the films critics have been choosing. I did see and enjoy THE BUTLER and AMERICAN HUSTLE, but I wouldn't rate them as excellent. I wish I had seen HANNAH ARENDT, but I never heard of it. The best movie I did see (and found remarkable) was STORIES WE TELL, which made the lists of only two critics, Ann Hornaday of the Washington Post and Moira Macdonald of the Seattle Times. Quite a thought-provoking movie.  I also saw on TV a movie that is about eight years old, A GOOD WOMAN, which was excellent (based loosely on LADY WINDEMERE'S FAN  by Oscar Wilde).
