I'm happy to see 2 Days in Paris so high on your list, probably the best film I've seen this year, although I haven't seen Zodiac yet. I highly recommend seeing Away From Her when it comes on DVD.

Away from Her would definitely be in the #1 position if I were going by studio release dates, but I stick to imdb (first premieres and such.) So as Polley's film was first screened in '06, it currently sits on last year's list.
