Tarantino names his top 10 films of 2013

Quentin Tarantino has released a list of his favourite films of the year so far.

The director posted the run down on his website, The Quentin Tarantino Archives, saying: "Bear in mind that the cinematic year isn’t really over yet and the list is in alphabetic order."

Woody Allen's 'Blue Jasmine', Noah Baumbach's acclaimed 'Frances Ha', Alfonso Cuaron's 'Gravity' and Jeff Wadlow's 'Kick-Ass 2' all made the list.

Somewhat surprisingly, considering the film was widely derided by critics, Gore Verbinski's 'The Lone Ranger' also appears in Tarantino's Top 10.

The full list reads as follows:

• 'Afternoon Delight' (Jill Soloway)

• 'Before Midnight' (Richard Linklater)

• 'Blue Jasmine' (Woody Allen)

• 'The Conjuring' (James Wan)

• 'Drinking Buddies' (Joe Swanberg)

• 'Frances Ha' (Noah Baumbach)

• 'Gravity' (Alfonso Cuarón)

• 'Kick Ass 2' (Jeff Wadlow)

• 'The Lone Ranger' (Gore Verbinski)

• This Is The End' (Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg)

Tarantino has previously listed his top 10 movies of 2010 and 2011, but he did not include one for 2012 due to work commitments on 'Django Unchained'.
