That's a lot of movies as usual! Only 3½ for The Grand Budapest Hotel? Curious, what prevented you from giving it 4?
ReplyDeleteThe Grand Budapest Hotel was enjoyable, but it felt very long and a little too scatterbrained towards the end. I'd like to see it again, though.
DeleteI'm always amazed at the number of films you manage to squeeze in a given month. Of the ones I've seen, I enjoyed them quite a bit. The one exception to that might be Noah. I liked it, but didn't love it.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Noah is a divisive film, for sure.
DeleteThe Woodsman is such a creepy little film, but very fascinating. I always thought that was a really risky role for Bacon to take.
ReplyDeleteIt was very risky, but I think it helped that the film was very small.
DeleteGreat list! There are so many here I need to see, including 42nd Street! You have me so intrigued.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's my favorite Busby Berkeley musical from that year over Footlight Parade and Gold Diggers of 1933. Right now, it's my second favorite musical behind Singin' in the Rain! :)
