#42 – Le Fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain

I’ve never seen this before, and it’s in foreign which means I’ll have to concentrate properly on it. Al keeps raving about it though, so it’d better be good.

#38 – American Beauty

I don’t think I’ve seen this since it came out. Will it be as good as I recall, or has nostalgia clouded my memory?

#113 – Unforgiven

A new film for me tonight, if it’s anything as good as the cast list we should be in for a good evening.

#139 – Platoon

I can’t actually remember the last time I watched this, and it’s entirely possible that I’ve never actually seen it all the way through.

We’re starting to run out of films that we’ve actually got, and can comfortably fit into an evening. Most of the films that are left are 2.5+ hours long, a bit much for a school night.

#185 – Terminator

I actually watched this a few months ago. A good film, but somewhat overshadowed by it’s successor. Shame the series went rapidly downhill from there though.

#105 – Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

The third week of our Indiana Jones mini season. Not sure if we’ll worry about the fourth film just yet.

Happy Birthday Jaws

Jaws was released in the cinema 35 years ago today. So to commemorate the event I shall sit and watch the film whilst wearing my Quint’s Shark Fishing t-shirt.

#81 – 2001: A Space Odyssey

Oddly enough, I don’t recall ever actually having watched this all the way through.
