Palm Adore

This is more about discovering my limitations as a cinephile than as a definitive ranking of anything, but I went through every year's crop of films and assigned prizes as if they were all competing at the Cannes Film Festival. This is maybe a little silly, but it was also fun. This stems from my constant frustration that the Palme is not routinely rewarded to the film that breaks the most ground for the art of cinema. Amour springs to mind. Fine enough movie (if you're into that sort of thing) but grammatically conventional. Remember that was the year Holy Motors played in competition. I added the Camera d'Or the year that Cannes did just to stop myself from going totally insane. And I'm playing by Cannes rules in that I'm trying not to give any one film two awards, which means compromise in categories. So, again, not a definitive ranking, just a game. Oh, and I'm starting arbitrarily in 1930.
