It wasn't easy to limit my notion of the greatest films of all time – those that have awakened my love of cinema, become ingrained in the fabric of my life, and continue to leave me in awe upon each viewing – to a list of 10. Here is a selection of films that have also deepened my admiration for the medium as an ever-evolving artform and a source of endless passion:
Close-Up (Abbas Kiarostami, 1990)
Klute (Alan J. Pakula, 1971)
Three Colors: Red (Krzysztof Kieślowski, 1994)
Naked (Mike Leigh, 1994)
Punch-Drunk Love (Paul Thomas Anderson, 2002)
Les Amants du Pont-Neuf (Leos Carax, 1991)
Two Lovers (James Gray, 2008)
Variety (Bette Gordon, 1983)
Notorious (Alfred Hitchcock, 1946)
Losing Ground (Kathleen Collins, 1982)
Taxi Driver (Martin Scorsese,1976)
Hiroshima mon amour (Alain Resnais,1959)
In a Lonely Place (Nicholas Ray, 1950)
