Well I m still here reading your reviews. Found them all interesting even if we didn't always reach the same conclusions about movies.
I was interested in your response to Schindler's List. Although you gave it a high rating, you did not feel all that much connected to the film. I don't know if that is partly your age and personal preferences- but I can understand it. I find that - for me- in films of these epic stories, I need a personal connection on a 'smaller scale' - to see -and feel- the story through the smaller narrative of an individual. I saw Schindler s list years ago, but I remember having that same vaguely defined feeling that, masterpiece tho it may be, it wasn't one I'd likely seek out to see again. So.....as if you don't already have enough homework- I am going to recommend a film in the same WorkdWar2 theme, that is, the obscene cruelty of pure evil, and the human decency and unsung bravery of people in the throes of the worst conditions For me, this is a better picture with characters you can really relate to, and a 'smaller story within a larger story' that wraps you in and never leaves you. And that is Life Is Beautiful.
I don't remember if you mentioned seeing it, but would like very much to see a full review of it from you.
Of course this can be after you travel thru those 100 or 1000 or so movies on your list as of nowlol. Btw, I am curious about one thing- how did you make your list?
Meanwhile I m looking forward to reviews of many familiar cherished films of mine- and I see Fantasia is coming up soon. Enjoy.
