Overview
- The director revealed his No. 1–10 picks on The Bret Easton Ellis Podcast, completing a two‑part rollout after last week’s No. 11–20.
- His top ten lists Toy Story 3, Lost in Translation, Dunkirk, There Will Be Blood, Zodiac, Unstoppable, Mad Max: Fury Road, Shaun of the Dead, and Midnight in Paris behind Black Hawk Down.
- He praised Toy Story 3 as an almost perfect film, noting its finale’s powerful emotional impact without detailing the plot.
- He said Dunkirk didn’t connect on first viewing but became a favorite after repeat watches, citing its mastery on rewatch.
- He limited himself to one film per director and argued Paul Dano’s performance kept There Will Be Blood from ranking higher.
