Best movies I watched in 2020 that didn’t come out in 2020

My best of 2020 list is below. But for now, here are some standout first-time watched of movies that didn’t come out in 2020.

I watched 137 movies in 2020, which is close to typical despite me being at home all the time because of a pandemic. (In 2017, I recorded myself as watching 135).

The Thin Man (W. S. Van Dyke, 1934) — 1/19

What a lovely relationship! Exchanging quips, drinking, and solving crimes. It’s ideal!

A Hidden Life (Terrence Malick, 2019) — 1/22

The last great movie I watched in theaters. (Sonic the Hedgehog is the last actual movie I watched in theaters.)

The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (David Zucker, 1988) — 1/26
