1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die - As seen in April 2012
1) Memento (2000 - Christopher Nolan) 10/10 - One of the current front-runners for the next TOP 20.
2) Monsieur Verdoux (1947 - Charles Chaplin) 8.5/10 - I went a little overboard giving this a '10/10' last month, but it IS good.
3) Dumbo (1941 - Ben Sharpsteen) 4.5/10
4) The Lord of the Rings (2001, 2002, 2003 - Peter Jackson) 10/10 - 'nuff said.
5) Once (2006 - John Carney) 7/10
6) The Best Years of Our Lives (1946 - William Wyler) 6.5/10
7) Spring in a Small Town (1948 - Fei Mu) 4.5/10 - I have a feeling this one is going to become one of the most forgettable films I'll see from THE BOOK.
8) Yi Yi (2000 - Edward Yang) 8.5/10 - This one actually grew on me quite a bit since I saw it. I could definitely see this one getting, at least, a Ten Worth Mentioning nod.
9) No Man's Land (2001 - Danis Tanovic) 6/10
10) On the Town (1949 - Kelly, Donen) 5/10 - Fun, a few catchy tunes, but nothing worth writing home about.
11) Oldboy (2003 - Park Chan-wook) 8/10 - I think I went high because I was familiar with it and I thought it had already earned a high rating. Very good, but not '9' good.
12) Atonement (2007 - Joe Wright) 6.5/10 - I knew I should've just gone with the '6.5' to begin with. I'm such a pushover sometimes.
13) Fires Were Started (1943 - Humphrey Jennings) 3.5/10 - Inspirational, but again, no need to get out the stationery for this one either.
14) La Vie en rose (2007 - Olivier Dahan) 6.5/10 - I appreciated the education more than the actual film.
Aaaaand I saw nothing else this month. Expect me to start steamrolling through THE BOOK in May as we reach the halfway mark of this 100. I'll have a "City of God" review ready for you guys by tomorrow night. See ya then!
