I didn’t watch as many movies in March as I usually do in a month. That’s partially due to both of my sisters visiting me for a week to celebrate both the Oscars and my birthday. Though for my actual birthday (which they weren’t in town for yet), I spent it watching Mon oncle at the Academy Museum, which was a nice way to mark another year older. Other memorable screenings this past month included three Oscar-winning or nominated Mel Brooks classics at the Academy Museum, a double feature of films starring Jeanne Moreau directed by Louis Malle at the New Beverly, and a couple more awards contenders at the Aero the weekend before the Academy Awards. It was still a solid movie-watching month, but I’m already eager to move on to April, which promises to be a very exciting month, mostly with the TCM Classic Film Festival beginning in less than two weeks. But before then, here’s what I saw in March…
