Best Films of 2017

-
Netflix and Amazon have really made these lists difficult, since a lot of the best material is now being released straight to streaming services. I should probably keep a better list of this stuff as I watch it. But I'm pretty bad about that nowadays.

  1. Call Me By Your Name
  2. Mother!
  3. Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
  4. Get Out
  5. Dunkirk
  6. Wonder Woman
  7. Wind River
  8. Lady Bird
  9. A Ghost Story
  10. Baby Driver

Movies I have not seen, want to, and may end up on this list:

You have until February 10 th to download a

The primary reasons appear to be a "lack of candor" about information released to the Wall Street Journal about the Clinton Foundation investigation. From what I gather reading this report, it is little more than an explanation about why McCabe was fired rather than an indictment of McCabe or James Comey's reputations.

Common practice is to avoid confirming or denying the existence of any active investigation. From the report, it argues that McCabe was not forthright and essentially was dishonest (whether intentionally or not) when he was asked about the release of information to the WSJ. This is a
