As I've stated previously, one of the main goals of this blog will be to chronicle my attempt to watch 365 films over the next year. I'm a cinephile. I love film; all genres (except Snuff), from all countries (except assholes Uzbekistan) and from all periods of history (except 1989 - fuckin' Driving Miss Daisy). There's nothing I like to do more than watch movies. I don't really need an excuse to watch a shit-load of movies, but this will help me in the coming months, to act as an excuse to waste a perfectly beautiful day by choosing to stay indoors with the lights off when the Wife wants to go outside of the apartment and enjoy the "real" world. "Sorry hon, I got that blog, remember..."
So here are the rules. It's 365 films in the year, not necessarily 1 a day. I'm not insane. I'm not going to be able to watch a movie everyday. I want to average one a day, so don't fuckin' bother me if i skip February 14th or July 7th or November 24th (mentioning a day I missed will only mark you as an asshole).
To chronicle the journey I will write a review for each film of exactly 3 sentences in length. Why only 3 sentences you might ask. Too large of a minimum review and I'll never complete this task. After a few weeks I'll get pissy, begin to look at this as homework and tell this blog to go fuck itself. The Wife suggested this length and I agree with her that it'll be a challenge to encapsulate my opinion of the film in such a limited way. Three sentences isn't a lot of room in which to articulate an opinion and that seems like a reasonable challenge to undertake.
So here we are, the Second New Year's Resolution of 2007: 365 Films / 3 Sentences Each.
