9. Crimes of the Future
David Cronenberg does not miss, and this gut-churning film deals with art, evolution, and the environment on a visceral, immediate level. The transgender themes of this film are readily apparent and beautifully layered in metaphor, creating a film-going experience that had us laughing in our seats even as everyone around us cringed. The disgust is the point of Crime of the Future, but it’s also incredibly beautiful.
