It really has been a fascinating experience watching the ebbs and flows of cinema during the course of this project. Last week I was tasked with picking a favorite film of 2007, a year that contains three of my favorite films of all time, leading to a […]
Over the course of the dozens of Cinematic Century posts that I’ve made, I’ve have had to make some really tough calls. The whole point of these articles is to select a favorite film from every year, which sometimes means pitting several movies that could possibly claim […]
Note: This article more or less ran as an installment of Film Library, because it seemed ridiculous to write a similarly structured article about the same movie twice. Only once before during this Cinematic Century project was I compelled to be a tad lazy, and more […]
Some weeks it’s incredibly hard to pick a movie to highlight as my favorite of the year, most often because there happens to be too many movies I love from that year. But, other times I find myself having no struggle at all. Such as this week. […]

I feel like no matter what movie I chose as my favorite film of 2001, it was going to be a bit of a downstep after last week. We talked about what may be my favorite film of all time last week, from a year full of […]
A very common question when getting to know someone is to ask what their favorite movie is. Should be a simple question, but I’m the type of guy who will launch into a rant about how it’s impossible to pick a single favorite, because such things can […]
Dear readers, I regret to inform you that I am back on my bullshit. As you can see, we’re here to today to discuss my favorite film of 1999. And, in case you weren’t aware, that’s a pretty tough call. Because 1999 was a bizarrely great year […]
