To highlight the great work of filmmakers during a challenging year for the film industry, film fans, and everyone else, the San Luis Obispo International Film Festival has announced their choices for the Top Ten Films of 2020 to call attention to some of their favorite films released in theaters, drive-ins, and online this year.
Amanda McBaine and Jesse Moss’ BOYS STATE, Charlie Kaufman’s I’M THINKING OF ENDING THINGS, and Eliza Hittman’s NEVER RARELY SOMETIMES ALWAYS, took the top three spots among films released domestically in 2020.
The 2021 San Luis Obispo International Film Festival will take place March 9-14.
