Usually, I watch one or two movies a day. While I was in school, it was next to impossible to blog about what I had seen, because I saw 4-5 films per week for classes, and had tons of reading and writing to do. With more leisure time, I know I will continue to watch many films a week, and since I do not want to fall into the trap of never discussing what I see again, I have made a decision.
Beginning June 1st, 2010, I will write, every day, about a film I have watched that day.
Sometimes, the blogs will be short, descriptive entries of my thoughts on the film, and other times, I will employ academic research to back up my thoughts in a fuller fashion. There will be a wide plethora of films from around the world, some old, some new, some rare, some ubiquitous.
I will attempt, as much as possible, to write about films I have not seen that I have been meaning to watch, however, it is likely that there will be retrospective posts which look at films I have seen in the past. It’s always fun to compare the “me then” and the “me now” reactions to films. I have changed so much since my teens. I’ve changed so much in just the last four years—and so have my viewing habits!
Comments will be open on all posts, and I welcome thoughtful, considerate responses.
See you soon.
