June Movie Status
I watched 23 new movies in June, plus re-watched three
others. This was about half the number
of new movies as last month. That was
probably due to completing three different lists last month, then finishing a
fourth this month. After that I took it
a little easy.
The list I referred to as completing this month is Roger Ebert’s Great Films. He has a total of about
375, depending on whether you split collective entries out into their
components or not. As it turns out, one
of those entries – Looney Toons Golden Collection Volume 1 – was partially misleading. Ebert actually
wrote about three Warner Brothers shorts – One Froggy Evening, Duck Amuck, and
What’s Opera Doc as being designated as “great”. As it turns out, that particular collection
only has Duck Amuck on it. I had already
seen all three prior to this anyway, so I finished off the four disks of that
collection to complete Ebert’s entire list, no matter which way you want to
interpret it.
I will probably work on Empire’s 2008 list of the Top 500 Films next. I have 22 of those left to
see. Completing this list may present a
challenge – the film The Company of Men
(1997) is no longer available from Netflix.
I could stream it from Amazon for a few bucks, but I’m not so militant
about completing this list that I can’t wait until an opportunity to see the
movie for free presents itself. If
months go by with no other way to see it, though, I may change my mind. If you have a non-torrent alternative to
suggest, please do so.
