Really good month. A small handful of mediocrities, but only one true stinker. Much of June was devoted to revisiting old favorites, but I think I’ve got a couple of new favorites as well. My only gripe is that although I watched a substantial number of films, I really could have watched so many more. With the wife out of town, I’ve had fewer demands on my time, plus I had a few days off from work. I’ve just developed some bad time-wasting habits (mostly internet-related). Not all that time needs to go into watching movies, but it should be put to some kind of productive use. I’ve squandered far too many hours lately.
Forecast for July is several more rewatches as I prep my updated top 100. Other than that, no specific viewing plans, I’ll just play it by ear.

Might I suggest a revisiting of STALKER? I just watched it and was pleased, to say the least, and I notice it’s been almost exactly six years since your last viewing.

Yes, that will be coming. As well as THE MIRROR.
