I am comfortable with a certain lack of consistency in myself. Life is duty, beauty and criteria, but it’s also a series of moods and passages from one thing to another…highs and detours and occasional levitations and floatings. All to say I don’t what the hell happened when I ran my Best 14 Movies of 2005 list in the column a while back and omitted James Mangold’s Walk The Line. It’s #4 on my MCN Gurus of Gold list and I also submitted it as #6 in a Year’s Ten Best list based in my own personal criteria. Obviously on some level I mood-tripped my way out of including Walk The Line in that previous piece but I can’t figure why. I guess the boat rocked and some beer spilled out of the mug. Apologies for the oversight.
