We have reached the official end of our 2019 recaps (at least until Oscar Night). It’s been a long and amazing journey this past year. 2019 was one of the best years in film since CinemaJaw began, and the roster of great movies goes very deep! Unpacking the year is a hurculian task.
This week, we wrap up our 2019 review with our Top 5 Favorite Scenes of 2019. Joining us is a fellow critic, a man who never misses a movie (seriously)!
