OK Christine you talked me into. I just requested it from Netflix. I will try to participate and watch as many films as I can BUT I hope we get some time, as I can only request 1 movie at a time from Netflix.

Dying to see The Innocents especially after seeing these behind the scenes photos Criterion posted yesterday before their new release:

Late to the party but this is how I rank the four I saw:
1. Breakfast at Tiffany's
2. West Side Story
3. Yojimbo
4. 101 Dalmatians
Are we moving on to 1962? If Jiraffe can't do it I will start it, but I'll ask for his approval.

I like The Innocents a lot (it was in my top five) but I would have bet on Breakfast for the win.
Good thing I never actually bet. I'm rarely right. So far, both winners have been in my top five so I'm happy with the outcome thus far.

With awesome results like this. I guess I'll keep me and my marbles in for the next one, whenever it is.
