Ioncinema.com's inaugural American New Wave 25 (Class of 2010) was a blast to unveil and we'd like to thank those who took a timeout from their busy schedules to provide us with, not only extra info relating to their filmography, but for allowing us to use their pics as well (e.g. Reed Moreno on the set of Elgin James' much anticipated Little Birds starring Juno Temple). I'm extremely enthusiastic for the future of American independent film and obviously Park City, Tisch School of the Arts at Nyu, SXSW, paired with the film scenes in Los Angeles, Austin and NYC continue to play a vital role in the success and renewal of the indie scene. I'm happy to report that breeding grounds for creativity and promising new voices are alive and well in other parts of the country: from Indianapolis to Minnesota and it extends past the borders into far away places such as Greece.

If the year ended today here's what my top ten would like like (alpha order) with the Best Picture nominees in red. This isn't really the warm up to Tfe's awards (unless the remainder of the year is hugely disappointing) it's more like lacing up your gym shoes before heading out to the warm-up. We hope.
