This is me getting attacked by my gigantic film collection. |
Back in mid April, I had just finished my third year of University. I was suffering from a bad cold and wasn't able to do much. I was, however, able to watch movies and thought that it would be a decent way to pass the time while I was coughing my brains out and drinking a cup of tea. I had made lists in the past of films that I had wanted to see. Luckily enough, I had stumbled upon a function at IMDB where you could create your own watch list. I was quite excited by this and started right away by looking through hundreds of titles. I started small with roughly 24 films. Because I had so much time on my hands, I was able to get through many of those films quickly. Within two weeks, I had already watched 12 of the films. Yet something that frequently happens on my watch list is that movies are always being added. I had dropped down to 14 titles and throughout the past month or so, it has increased to 54 titles. So I thought I'd take this opportunity to write about the movies that I see on my watch list. There are other topics I'd like to write about on film but for starters I'll tackle my watch list. Some films are on there because there are some actors and actresses who have been in classic films that I have not seen yet (Such as Clint Eastwood, Audrey Hepburn, Charles Bronson). Others are listed on AFI's 100 Greatest Films of All Time (Such as
The Grapes of Wrath,
All About Eve and
On the Waterfront). And sometimes, I get into certain phases where I want to see movies that belong to a certain genre, like Horror (
The Omen, The Bride of Frankenstein and
The Haunting). So once a watch a few more titles, I'll report back to discuss them in detail.
