2026 is finally here and what better time to take a look back at our favourite films from the past twelve months. Welcome to The Chronicle Episode 53!

Grab your favourite snacks and drinks as this episode is a long one. Joining you for our pick of the best movies of the year gone by with Paul is Clotilde Chinnici and, as with any retrospectives, we love to see if we all had the same films on our lists. That would be the perfect scenario, but everybody’s tastes are, of course, different so there will be surprises – some you’ll agree with and others probably. Check out our writers’ choices below…

Coming right up after this episode will be Paul and Clotilde’s Worst Films of 2025. Will the list surprise or shock you? Or will you agree with all of them? We hope you enjoy both episodes.
