Film: Best of 2006

[Rickypt]

It's that time of year. What do you consider the best films and performances of 2006? Mine are below, although I still haven't seen Notes on a Scandal, so Dame Judi Dench might be added later.

I didn't separate supporting from lead roles.

All in all, a pretty good year for movies, I think.
