I recently stumbled upon Ryan McNeil's site, where he was running a feature called Blind Spot. It's basically listing down 12 films you must see that year, one for each month. I thought it was a great and challenging idea, considering that I barely write much reviews. Also, despite being a fan of motion pictures, I haven't seen a lot of movies. This is a great way to expand my movie horizon, and to finally watch some classics I've been meaning to see. Here is my list, and I hope I get to accomplish this by next year! I'll be updating this as I post my reviews, so feel free to check back once in a while!
Thanks again for dropping by my humble soapbox - hope you'll make a habit of it! As for the titles you've selected, I've seen them all, and let me assure you that you're in for a very good year.
Happy New Year - and best of luck scratching off all twelve!
Awesome list! I've seen them all, and you are in for a treat! I can't wait to see everyone's reviews this year. My favorite from that list is E.T. and my least favorite is Rear Window, but I'm in the minority when it comes to that film (I just found it dull).
This is quite a list of amazing films! I've seen all but Carrie, which should probably be on a blind spots list for me. It's cool to see His Girl Friday in there among the giants. That's such a funny screwball comedy!
Very cool! I've only seen 6 from your list. Oh you're in for a treat w/ Roman Holiday, that's one of my all time fave classic films. My friend just gave me Rear Window and Vertigo to watch, so I'm looking forward to that. Great mix of contemporary and classic films!
I'm still contemplating on seeing Roman Holiday or Casablanca this month - still haven't made up my mind! I'm hoping I do like Memento, and I'm excited to see Carrie as well.

ReplyDeleteThank you. Really hoping I'd enjoy it too. :)
DeleteGreat list, some of my all time favourites on there (Casablanca, Roman Holiday, Pulp Fiction etc) You'll love them!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Are you participating in the Blind Spot series as well. I'd love to see your list! :)
DeleteI love Roman Holiday, you should see it. Maybe in February? Memento is excellent as well. Carrie was legendary. Great list!
