This will be my first in a series of best of the year lists. I figured I should start with the current year and move backward. Of course, it will get out of order as the years roll on, but that's inevitable. Anyway, these are 2008's best films:
1. Frozen River
2. Gran Torino
3. The Dark Knight
4. Milk
5. WALL·E
6. The Reader
7. Frost/Nixon
8. Iron Man
9. Burn After Reading
10. Changeling
