Here are my 10s from last week's Sonoma Valley Film Festival:

Captain Abu Raed, a fim from Jordan that was as uplifting for me as Zorba the Greek back in '64
Amal, a film from India whose main character is the essence of exquisite compassion
Jar City, a dark mystery from Iceland that is edgier than anything Hitchcock made
Young at Heart, a knock-out documentary about a chorus whose average age is in the 80s
Lynch, a documentary that only David Lynch fanatics will dig (and there'll be a Lynch 2 and 3 to follow....)
Never Apologize, a documentary about the fascinating Malcolm McLaren's homage to director Lindsay Anderson
