In spring 2018, I find myself applying to Carleton University’s one-year Post-Baccalaureate Diploma program in Film Studies. In case anyone is coming here in that context, I wanted to not have my review of The Wolfman be their initial introduction to this site.
The format here is simple, with screening dates listed in every review and initial posting dates on each post. Most reviews were written between mid-2008 and early 2011. The text is all searchable so if you’re wondering whether a particular film is reviewed (or mentioned in another review), simply search for it.
In case you don’t feel like randomly searching through the available reviews, I’ve selected a handful which represent my style of analysis:
Synecdoche, New York
Scarface (1983)
Helvetica
Jackass 3D
Rumble Fish
In Bruges
The Messenger
Toy Story
Contact
Taxi Driver
If you would like to randomly read some reviews, you can go to “OLDER POSTS” at the bottom, and then change the number in the URL from “2” to some other number, up to “33”. After about 50 reviews, I started adding a 6-word summary to the end, as an exercise in concise writing.
Enjoy the site, and if you’re reading a bunch of reviews, have fun watching the progression of my writing style and review style.
