"Love, exciting and new..."
And so we begin. Welcome to the blog that is dedicated to a) clearing out all the movies I have clogged our cable's DVR hard-drive with and b) have me review them.
Now I am no Pauline Kael but I will do my best to share my critical thoughts on what I've been watching while trying to fit it within a larger cultural context than "it was awesome" or "it sucked". Be forewarned that the vast majority of films will be from the stables of Turner Classic Movies since they really do the best job of programming in cable. Where else can you catch Citizen Kane every other day but also find Timothy Carey's self-produced oddity The World's Greatest Sinner? (which reminds me, I really need to see The Last Movie again and soon.) I'll also cover plenty of territory from IFC or Sundance Channel as well but ultimately I'll be covering whatever made me excited to push the "record" button while searching the cable listings.
And there you have it.
