  1. Very happy to see "The Horse Thief" here, but it's a shame to see Beatrice Dalle stripped of her Best Actress crown for "Betty Blue". For your 1985 ballot, I highly recommend "Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters" for your consideration.

    1. The Horse Thief barely missed my top 5. I got the Criterion release of Betty Blue when it came out, but I still haven't watched it yet. (I've only seen the film once years ago.)

      I want to start posting my ballots much more frequently, but I'll try to watch Mishima before I post 1985.
