Updates

Sorry I haven't been blogging.

I really enjoyed Daredevil on Netflix. More like this, please.

Finally caught up with Winter Sleep - the looonnng Turkish film by Nuri Bilge Ceylan that won last year's Cannes Film Festival. His films are so full of subtle yet emotional violence that if you miss one line of dialogue you may not get it. Although characters do tend to repeat themselves a lot. Here's a good review by the late Richard Corliss.

I've been using Letterboxd a lot lately. I like the layout much better than IMBD. Smarter critical opinions too.

Here's my favorite films of the year so far.

Here's some discoveries I made or films I finally caught up with. All are recommended especially 'Champagne For Caesar' a really wild and fun comedy from 1950 starring Ronald Coleman and Vincent Price.
