Best of 2019 - From my perspective

As tradition will have it, here are my top 10 films, albums and tracks of the year.

2019 has been particularly strong in the cinema category! I can't remember the last time I've struggled to make this list, as I feel like I'm leaving out some pretty epic movies.

It honestly felt hard leaving behind motion pictures like Joker, John Wick 3, The Farewell, Toy Story 4,Us, Honey Boy, Knives Out, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Dolomite is My Name, Atlantics or Booksmart...

And these are just the ones I've seen... so factor in other critically acclaimed films like Uncut Gems,  Little Women, 1917, JoJo Rabbit, Waves...

Crazy, right?!

Wish the same could be said about albums, but really there wasn't a lot surprising me this year and I actually struggled to get a list done... that doesn't apply to tracks though, as there are so many tunes I would love to fit in. With this in mind, I've created a Spotify list with my favorite songs of 2019.
