Turned into a rather busy week with a few nights at the bar catching up with friends, and a rare mid-week recording of The Matineecast. Thus no trips to a theatre this week, but hey…one week out of the year won’t kill me
And even though most of these were mulligans, it made a pretty good dent in the to-watch pile…which just leads to the acquisition of more movies. It’s a vicious cycle.
Blu-Rays/DVD’s I’ve Never Seen
STRANGERS ON A TRAIN – One of my favorite Hitchcock films…interesting since I turned around and gave it away.
NOWHERE BOY – I should be writing something about this, so keep your eyes open. Ineteresting, if uneven.
Blu-Rays/DVD’s I’ve Watched Before
REAR WINDOW – aka “DISTURBIA 1.0”
TOY STORY 3 – Got misty again. Shut up.
M – Such a splendid classic.
SHUTTER ISLAND – Only the second time I’ve seen it, and lordy does it ever get better with subsequent watchings!
DAYS OF HEAVEN – A new favorite and the best classic I saw last year.
PONTYPOOL – Like a zombie-esque version of the War of the Worlds radio broadcast
ALICE IN WONDERLAND – Liked it then, still like it now.
ROPE – Begin the week with Hitchcock, end it with Hitchcock.
