So it would seem as though with my hard drive crashing, I’ve lost a handful of files that couldn’t be recovered. Can’t help but wonder if the spreadsheet I use to keep track of this feature is one of the casualties…not that it can’t easily be re-created.

I might have crossed a new cinephile thresh hold this week, as I found myself at four screenings in five days. During weeks that aren’t dotted by a film festival, that’s a bit much. Not sure if I’ve ever partaken in such geekery before…nor do I really want to find out!

Here’s what was on tap…

Screenings
THELMA & LOUISE – Davis and Sarandon were on hand to introduce it. There are moments where it feels dated, but my is it deceptively well-shot!
BADLANDS – The only Terrence Malick film I hadn’t seen.
SUPER 8 – Again, Sasha James flexes her awesome muscles.
TREE OF LIFE – I dug it. You might not. If you don’t, I promise not to tell you to watch it again.

Blu-Rays/DVD’s I’ve Never Seen
SUMMER SCHOOL – The least painful so far.
BETTER THAN SOMETHING: JAY REATARD – NXNE screener, seemed predictable…then it surprised me.

Blu-Rays/DVD’s I’ve Watched Before
NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN – I stand by my assessment that this was one of the top three films of the last decade.
THE SOCIAL NETWORK – Just ‘cuz.
