I’ve seen a lot of those movies and agree with much of Ehrlich’s list. The Florida Project, Lady Bird, Get Out, Baby Driver, Dunkirk, and The Big Sick are on my end-of-year More Movies Like This, Please list.. I haven’t seen The Post, but I’ve read the script and I figure that will end up on the list. I really liked Logan. Coco absolutely is among the year’s best.

I plan on watching most of the movies on Ehrlich’s list. Year in, year out, he zeroes in some really fine films.
