Soundvenue rangerede i midten af december de 20 bedste internationale film i 2024.
Nogle af filmene går igen på årslisterne hos de toneangivende udenlandske filmmedier, der dog følger premierekalenderen i deres respektive lande. Og som altid har eksempelvis USA og England allerede haft premiere på ventede film, vi først kan drømme om at se i Danmark næste år.
Det betyder, at de internationale lister er et inspirerende fingerpeg om, hvor nogle af de, med danske briller, kommende store filmoplevelser skal findes, og vi har derfor samlet dem her.
For at nærme os en konklusion har vi regnet os frem til en overordnet rangering af de internationale mediers favoritter gennem et pointsystem, hvor en førsteplads giver 10 point, andenplads giver 9 point og så fremdeles.
Hos Soundvenue gik førstepladsen til Luca Guadagninos tennis-trekantsdrama ’Challengers’, som da også får en fjerdeplads her, mens redaktionens nummer 3, Sean Bakers ’Anora’, her scorer en andenplads.
Det hårdtslående dokumentariske indblik i Palæstina-Israel-konflikten ’No Other Land’ indtager også en top 10-plads her, ligesom på Soundvenues liste:
1. ‘All We Imagine as Light’ – 74 point
2. ‘Anora’ – 71 point
3. ‘Nickel Boys’ – 56 point
4. ‘Challengers’ – 44 point
5. ‘Hard Truths’ – 33 point
6. ‘The Brutalist’ – 33 point
7. ‘A Real Pain’ – 32 point
8. ‘Dahomey’ – 29 point
9. ‘Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World’ – 29 point
10. ‘No Other Land’ – 29 point
Men derudover er der adskillige film, som endnu ikke har fået premiere herhjemme. Førstepladsen går eksempelvis til indiske Payal Kapadias fiktionsfilmdebut ‘All We Imagine as Light’, som vandt Grand Prix-prisen på Cannes-festivalen og først kommer til Danmark 4. september 2025.
Brady Corbets american dream-epos ’The Brutalist’, Jesse Eisenbergs ’A Real Pain’ med Kieran Culkin og Mati Diops Guldbjørn-vindende dokumentar ’Dahomey’ kommer alle til Danmark i næste års første måneder.
Desuden ankommer Mike Leighs ’Hard Truths’ til marts, mens RaMell Ross’ ‘Nickel Boys’ endnu ikke har dansk premieredato.
