sticky links: movie linksgrid: portraits; notes sheet: people; compact mobile: true;Each judge was asked to name their 10 personal favourites (some exceeded the limit, proving what a tough ask that is) and our final list was compiled according to the number of votes each film received. In all, more than 100 films were nominated, but only those with two or more votes made the final 50. Where films received an equal number of votes, placement was weighted according to individual judges’ rankings. Throughout the process, there were surprises and discoveries, and the results have left us with an even deeper appreciation of the brilliance of our local film scene. We thank the judges for their contribution to what we hope will be a lasting tribute to Australian cinema. list: recommendations; id: picks; list style: divided;
