Each year, Diversions shu±es through everything we can get our paws on in an attempt to T discern the best films and albums of the year. There are three distinct categories on which we focus —national albums, local albums and films. This year, after hours upon hours of watching, H O listening and absorbing, we’ve voted on what we believe are the best artistic o≠erings of 2010. Every sta≠ writer was allotted ten votes, and the selections were picked based on which records E F or movies received the most points. From “Toy Story 3” to “Black Swan,” Kanye West to Caribou, BEST The Love Language to The Dirty Little Heaters, the choices run the gamut. But ultimately, there’s one common denominator — mastery of visuals and sounds. Agree or disagree, we hope you enjoy reading about some of Diversions’ favorites from a year that was chock full of art. Head online and tell us what you think, whether it’s good or bad — 2010 but most importantly, go check out these incredible films and records out for yourself. MOVIES NATIONAL ALBUMS LOCAL ALBUMS 1.
