The Peoples Movies – Top Films Of 2020 (The Writers)

The pain will be over soon, as in a few hours we give the two fingers to hell called 2020. You don’t need us to remind you of a certain Covid-19 pandemic that has decimated our lives. No matter what part of the world you live in the dreadful virus has taken something from us, for us cinephiles it’s been cinema.

We could probably count the amount of times our cinemas have actually being opened this year on one hand. Other films change from cinema to small screen, the rest had their release date delayed time after time. There is big hope those films will get their moment in 2021, for now lets reflect on what has been released with our Top Films of 2020.

For this year’s film choices we’ve relaxed a few things, Top 10 traditional format is still there. However instead of all cinema releases we’ve let the writers chose also from Home releases, Digital, Streaming (i:e Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc…). Also the option of Top 5 if they are struggling.

So what did The Peoples Movies choose as their Top Films Of 2020?
