Nathan Tyree: The best films of 1999
Obviously my choices are idiosyncratic and will not align with yours, but I think these are the best films of 1999.

1. Being John Malkovitch
2. Audition
3. The Talented Mr. Ripley
4. Magnolia
5. Bringing Out the Dead
6. eXistenz
7. Ghost Dog: Way of the Samurai
8. All About My Mother
9. Eyes Wide Shut
10. The Iron Giant
11. Office Space
12. Election
13. The Blair Witch Project
14. Fight Club
15. Dogma
16. Man on the Moon
17. The Red Violin
18. Bowfinger
19. The Matrix
20. Three Kings
21. Boys Don’t Cry
22. The Straight Story
23. American Beauty*
24. The Insider
25. The Limey

*At the time, American Beauty ranked much higher in my estimation. It has not aged well (for reasons both obvious and less so), and perhaps doesn't deserve even the rather low position I have given it. But, I wanted to keep it in the list because of the importance it had at the time.
