And so another year of movies ends, and we begin the futile process of trying to figure out the tippy top of best movies and performances of 2018. Below is my list, which includes a little bit of everything: Asians, Shoplifters, Indians, Wakandans, African-Americans, Eminem Producers, Mexicans, British Lesbians. You get the picture.
