The year is just about over, so what is your singular choice for favorite film of 2009?
This is obvious, but I'm going with Up. It's written and structured so insanely well, I am still amazed. The character's journey has difficulty, both physically and emotionally, it's unique and original, funny and exciting, sad and heartwarming...all at the same time. It's directed better than every live-action film of the year, the editing is flawless...I can go on forever about how every aspiring writer needs to watch and study Pixar films more than anything else. You can even learn what not to do from the shortcomings of Cars and Ratatouille. It's like a free masterclass on screenwriting every time you watch a Pixar film, and Up is no exception. Without a doubt the greatest film of the year, as well as my favorite.
