THE BEST OF 2021

        I have hesitated to write this column because I really didn’t see that many movies last year (comparatively speaking, of course). Shoot, I didn’t even see the Oscar winner CODA. I haven’t heard from many who have seen it, though. It is available only on Apple, which I don’t have. Or you can buy it (!). So anyway, since we’re almost halfway through the next year, here goes. No 10s again this year. I’m not listing 7's but will send them on request.
