Wrestler, Wendy and Lucy among AFI’s Top 10 of 2008
Another best off list that is mildly amusing to look at is the annual American Film Institute’s AFI list of the 10 Most Outstanding Motion Pictures and TV Programs of the Year. Indiewood and comic book movies shared the same space among year-end kudos: The jury drank the kool-aid and added Dark Knight and Iron Man alongside the likes of Frozen River, Wendy and Lucy and The Wrestler. My only question: where’s Ballast?
