Hramblings: My Top Movies of 2009

Note: This is my list. It probably doesn't match anyone elses. That's more or less by design. Ann Arbor gets flicks that don't hit other markets, but frequently Oscar contenders show up after the awards go out. Nothing too challenging this year except (perhaps) "This is England". My advice is to pay attention to ratings and descriptions.
