[Aaron Gerow]

The papers are reporting the results of the Kinema Junpo poll of  
critics of the best ten films of 2010.

1. Villain (Lee)
2. Confessions (Nakashima)
3. Heaven$B!G(Bs Story (Zeze)
4. 13 Assassins (Miike)
5. Sawako Decides (Ishii)
6. Caterpillar (Wakamatsu)
7. Sword of Desperation (Hirayama)
8. The Hero Show (Izutsu)
9. Sketches of Kaitan City (Kumakiri)
10. A Night in Nude: Salvation (Ishii)
11. Abacus and Sword (Morita)

Best Director: Lee Sang Il (Villain)
Best Screenplay: Lee Sang Il, Yoshida Shuichi (Villain)
Best Actress: Terajima Shinobu (Caterpillar)
Best Actor: Toyokawa Etsushi (Sword of Desperation, A Good Husband)
Best Supporting Actress: Ando Sakura (A Crowd of Three, etc.)
Best Supporting Actor: Emoto Akira (Villain)
Best New Actress: Sakuraba Nanami (Last Ronin, etc.)

Mixed results, but I was quite happy to see Zeze-san's film come in  
third. That is quite unusual for KineJun.
