End of April update.
Just like every year, I get very excited about the 1000 Greatest Films list in the first months trying to complete it and advance my way into its lenghty blind spots of my cinephile knowledge.
With Roger Ebert's recent passing and my recent reading of his Great Movies books, I made myself a promise to view all those films he listed in those referencial guides to the film lovers. I also want to watch every film from his yearly top tens since he became a film critic 1967-2013. Beginning with In the Heat of the Night, his number 10 for his first year as a film critic.
First, I made a list of films I’ll likely try to tackle down while trying to get rid of my list of Pantheon Directors at the same time. The Pantheon Directors list stands as the foundation of every film enthusiast and or film critics’ theories and views on the cinema. It is quite arbitrary since American author theorist Andrew Sarris first released it in 1968. Anyhow, I still think it holds the road pretty well.
