Truckin' along

So yesterday was a disappointing bust...sort of.  Some things were confirmed but confirmation surely didn't put it in our hands.  Thus began the waiting game...and we are still waiting.  Hopefully by Monday morning, we will have much better news.

I did finally finish The King's Speech on Thursday night.  WOW!  Beautiful. Stunning. Amazing acting.  It was just a delightful piece of cinema.  I am so glad I decided to do this "challenge" of a goal and to start backwards.  I hope I can get through a lot more of these quickly.  1 down, 82 more to go! Whoa! That's a lot! I've seen a majority of them, but will still be re-watching for the sake of completion of my goal.  There are plenty on the list that I dread though.  Films that I will never understand how they won a Best Picture.  But I am approaching this as I would any film from my Film Studies courses - as a film critic, as a student and with an open mind.

I think I shall dub this "The Lazy Weekend"...that shouldn't need much explanation of what our plans are - - a whole lot of nothing.
