“It was a shocking and unique experience. I don't give a damn that it's propaganda as long as a film can connect to me like Battleship Potemkin does.”

I loved 7th Heaven and it was my number 2. What's more my wife really loved it as well.

so, I'm guessing He who gets slapped is the final tie?
thought this and second guessed myself.

and Battleship was #9 for me.
AMAZING camera work wise, but the propaganda sort of killed the rest of the film for me.
VERY happy to have finally seen it though and even though it rated low, I may still place it on my Countdown List.

I thought so too and I'm sure that it will do very well in the upcoming countdown. Which reminds me I've got to get my voting list in for that.

“I really loved this one. I think a big part is that I quickly sympathized with the main character and despised others. So right off the bat I am hooked.”

He was at #6
and It at #3.
After watching It, I had a strong feeling that Clara was going to take this. Or perhaps, like I did for her character during the film, I was definitely rooting for her.

That went pretty smooth, I like having the noms prewritten up and saved, it made it much easier for me than doing in on the fly like I did in the 10th.
