Where there's a will there's a Kechiche

It would be neat if they cancelled the fest but still had a Competition via screeners.

The Dox way. It might be possible to review it this year as well, then!

Frederik B, Friday, 13 March 2020 13:40 (four years ago) link

Polanski

Kicking myself.

two weeks pass...

Thinking of doing a series of retrospective polls a la the Oscar and TSPDT polls people are doing. Would anyone be interested? Some of the selections are pretty fucking weird...

You already have my vote.

I'd be down but I reckon it will just serve to point out my many, many things still left to watch.

I checked, and Taxi Driver won in 1976, so absolutely.

There's 1753 nominees all in all, so yeah, so so so many films yet to see. I've listed them in an excel ark for a different project.

Frederik B, Wednesday, 1 April 2020 13:40 (four years ago) link

Any preferences on how to do it? Chronologically from 1946? Backwards chronologically from 2009 or something? Or jumping around decades?

Frederik B, Wednesday, 1 April 2020 13:41 (four years ago) link

I prefer to jump around.

Vegemite Is My Grrl (Eric H.), Wednesday, 1 April 2020 13:44 (four years ago) link

co-sign

brechtian social distancing (Simon H.), Wednesday, 1 April 2020 14:05 (four years ago) link

And start with 2000.

Vegemite Is My Grrl (Eric H.), Wednesday, 1 April 2020 14:27 (four years ago) link

Wouldn't that be boring? Surely Dancer in the Dark would win in a landslide

Frederik B, Wednesday, 1 April 2020 14:29 (four years ago) link

Against Yi Yi, In the Mood for Love, Esther Kahn, Code Unknown, O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Eureka and Taboo? That's a pretty stacked/split field right there.

Seriously tho, they're your polls, you make the rules.

Vegemite Is My Grrl (Eric H.), Wednesday, 1 April 2020 14:32 (four years ago) link

DitD not even top 3 in that list

How about we work backwards, so
10, 00, 90, 80, 70, 60, 46
19, 09, 98, etc
