Happy Monday!

Before we get into this week’s newsletter, a quick update: I’m Not Supposed To Be Here will have its first-ever premiere at the Fairfield Productions Film Showcase 2026 at the Revue Cinema on January 10th! We’d love to see you there as this is the film’s official big screen debut! Tickets are available now (link here)!

2025 has been an incredible year for cinema, with so many standout works hitting the big screen.

As much as Adrien and I love creating stories for the visual medium, we’re equally obsessed with learning every time we sit down to watch a film. (Click Read Online to see this week’s thumbnail!)

So, to wrap up a standout year, we’ve put together our personal Top 10 Films of 2025. These lists are entirely subjective; whether they’re “correct” isn’t the point. But for the record, my opinion is superior.

  7. The Phoenician Scheme

  8. Sorry, Baby

Obviously, Adrien and I haven’t seen every single movie that came out in 2025, but if you have any complaints, please contact us directly to make your claim.

We appreciate all the support and can’t wait for the new year ahead of us. Don’t forget to look forward to something for 2026 and remember: Dream Big

Till next year,

Pat and the Marquet Films team
