Films I really should get around to watching sometime
Someone mentioned Donnie Darko on twitter the other day (it's fifteen years old), which reminded me that I haven't actually seen it yet. And this weekend I've been thinking about some other films that I've somehow never gotten around to watching. Many are classics, some are not. My brother and I made a list years ago when we were watching a program about the Top 100 Films and for a while we worked our way through some of the classics we hadn't seen but when the list was lost, the idea fizzled out somehow. For those times when I'm pondering what to watch, however, I thought I'd start another list. And to jog my memory, I went looking for some top 100 lists on the internet. Wow, so many films I've yet to see.
I love films too and am in the process of catching up with oscar-nominated movies this year. On Monday I went to see "Fences" and tonight I'm seeing "Manchester by the Sea." I missed seeing "Moonlight" when it came to our repertory theatre but see it has come out on DVD so I guess I'll rent it.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big film fan myself, I recorded Room a couple of weeks ago but haven't got around to watching it yet.
