I’ve decided to add another New Year’s resolution to the previous set. It’s simply to watch all of the films on the list below. The intention is to knock a number of “must see” films off my own “haven’t seen” list. The films are a mixture of all-time classics that I’ve somehow missed, cult films I’ve been wanting to watch for ages, and unwatched DVDs I have sitting on my shelf.
The original idea was to list 12 films, so that it would be easy to monitor progress: if I watch one a month, I’m on track. But since it’s 2017 and everything’s topsy-turvy, I’ve added a special choice for number 13.
- The Third Man
- Gone with the Wind
- Doctor Zhivago
- Where Eagles Dare
- North by Northwest
- A View to a Kill
- Gandahar
- Fucking Åmål / Show Me Love
- Grave of the Fireflies
- Once Upon a Time in America
- Mother India
- Suspiria
- The Manchurian Candidate
One down.
How’s 2017 going so far?
Haven’t seen a blog post from you in a while, so thought I’d give you a poke in case it’s fallen off your radar.
Hope all’s good / & resolutions are going well?
Hi! 2017 is good, thanks! Very busy. However, the resolutions aren’t going so well. I guess it’s about time for a mid-year review.
