PAUL’S TOP 10 MOVIES OF 2024
What a fantastic year at the movies. I love reflecting on my trip to the movies, especially as a I discover new favorites. I gave multiple movies a full 5 out of 5 Ticket Stubs. There were stories I have never seen before, actors and actresses reaching outside their comfort zones, unpredictable endings, movie musicals, emotional depths to complicated characters, and more. 2024 saw directors like Denis Villeneuve, Francis Ford Coppola, Luca Guadagnino, and more push the boundaries of storytelling and filmmaking in the ever changing landscape of cinema.
I had the great fortune of interviewing incredible actors, directors, and writers many of whom gave me a newfound appreciation for their work and movies. The unique conversations I had included Christopher Reeve’s children to talk about their father’s legacy. I loved talking to Chaz Ebert about finding forgiveness, empathy, compassion, and kindness. I’ll never forget talking to Lady Gaga, Joaquin Phoenix, Timothée Chalamet, Kevin Costner, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Glen Powell, Riley Keough, Lily Gladstone and many more.
Special shout out to Zendaya for making the list twice with appearances in Dune Part Two and Challengers. Without further adieu, here are my Top 10 Movies of 2024.
