Las mejores películas de 2012 - Richard Brody (The New Yorker)

La lista del crítico Richard Brody que recientemente se ha publicado en The New Yorker asciende a 27 títulos. Con una más que generosa introducción que comienza con estas palabras: "These are the years of radical cinema in all directions—extremely idiosyncratic efforts both in the lower-budget realms of independent filmmaking and in the mercantile reaches of franchise films—and 2012 has been a wild ride, even as, in “awards season,” much of the wildest work around gets pushed to the sidelines and surprisingly unsurprising films of mild invention but ostensibly important content rush to the forefront of critical appreciation". Contextualización y principios; de ahí parte Brody.
