Films in 2014: December

Got back on track with watching several Best Picture nominees in December, and now only have about 150 left to see! And of course, I watched a few holiday movies here and there but didn’t get around to re-watching as many favorites as I wanted. I also caught up with some new releases thanks to being…

Films in 2014: November

For many online film fans, November is deemed Noirvember in celebration of the film noir genre, so this past month I dedicated much of my movie-watching to it. I participated in the celebration with a handful of films in the last couple of years, but this year I really dove into it, and more on that…

Films in 2014: October

As to be expected in the spooky month of October, I watched a number of thriller and horror movies and found new favorites among them. I also revisited a few classic favorites such as The Innocents and The Uninvited (both of which I watched last night for Halloween). Anyway, onto this month’s log of movies!

Films in 2014: September

I managed to watch a decent number of Best Picture nominees in September (not in the double digits but almost!), including a couple from the 90s and one from the 80s, which are two decades where I’ve probably watched the least nominees. The number of film discoveries this month is a little smaller than in…

Films in 2014: August

This month my eyes were practically glued to TCM thanks to its fantastic Summer Under the Stars program. So far, August also has the highest number of new-to-me films I’ve watched this year, and I watched a little over 50 films in total, though May still holds the record for most films watched.

Films in 2014: July

July was a busy month for me, but I still squeezed in a movie every day and even watched several that have been on my watchlist for a while. This will be another short post, so onto my month in movie-watching!

Films in 2014: June

This month was much more evenly spread across the decades compared to previous months, as I happened to watch at least one film per decade (starting from the 1920s). My Billy Wilder class wrapped up at the beginning of the month; in May I watched a number of his films outside of class for the…

Films in 2014: May

This post will be another brief one because apparently, I’m always busy on the first day of the month! But I did watch A LOT of movies this month (nearly 60!), the most I’ve ever watched in a 31-day period. Almost half of those movies were re-watches though because there are a lot of movies I…

Films in 2014: April

This monthly wrap-up will be rather brief, as I’m in the midst of studying and doing coursework for finals week. I’ve still managed to watch a movie between all the work though! Also, instead of showcasing the usual 5-6 top favorites of the month, I’m just going to highlight 3 that really stood out to…
