Movies I Watched at Home in 2014, List #3 (March) and #4 (April) and MVPs
Prepare to be underwhelmed. All those movies I recorded in February are still in(?) my DVR. I watched one this weekend so at least I am finally making progress.March and April were all full of TV, work, and drinking. Here are my tiny little lists:
March
Once again, not much from the movies, but here's what I got, off the top of my head.
Ladies -
* Marathon viewing in March and/or April
** https://myspace.com/discover/editorial/2014/3/4/feature-i-went-to-the-oscars-with-my-best-friend-and-then-i-went-viral
March
- Dallas Buyers Club (2013) C / <shrugs shoulders>
- Captain Phillips (2013) B+ / On the edge of my seat at the beginning, in tears at the end.
- Morning Glory (1933) C / Katharine Hepburn playing drunk playing Hamlet is aces.
- Of Human Bondage (1934) C / As cruel as the novel (kudos, Bette Davis), but not nearly developed enough.
- Zilch! I mean I watch movies every night but I didn't watch them with focus/intent as this list requires. No wonder I'm in such a bad mood in May. I will fix this. I'm going to watch a movie tonight.
Once again, not much from the movies, but here's what I got, off the top of my head.
