The rare Sunday post is here and it is because I want to share with you an exemplary blog that a friend of mine recently put together. He is running it with meticulous precision and a special form of ire that is native only to those of Irish decent and the learned moviegoer, both of which he is counted among.
This isn't the run-of-the-mill cinema gossip blog or rarely updated crit-blog like many others. Scott (that's said friend's name) has framed the blog within a set agenda. The agenda is to watch and earnestly review the entirety of Time's list of the 100 all-time greatest films.
The approach is thorough and honest, which is to say that when Scott doesn't like something, like say The Awful Truth or any other screwball comedies for that matter.
It's a joy to read. Here's the link. Dig the Statler and Waldorf marquee.
There are two ways to escape suffering it. The first is easy for many: accept the inferno and become such a part of it that you can no longer see it. The second is risky and demands constant vigilance and apprehension: seek and learn to recognize who and what, in the midst of the inferno, are not inferno, then make them endure, give them space."
