The column has officially returned for another year, with the simple question would you trust your friends, or are brave enough to let strangers choose your viewing habits for a month? There’re a few simple guidelines, and then you are at their mercy, well I have been doing this for a while and enjoy the risk versus reward, therefore dive into the numbers 25 films in 31 days, with eight movies that were revisited (seen and reviewed but has my view changed). The oldest film on the list is The Day the Earth Stood Still [1951] celebrating 75th anniversary the second place at 70-years is Forbidden Planet [1956]. You will notice the movie The Ghost Breakers [1940] it is because I figured out how to properly write the review on this controversial film. The popular decade was a tie between the 1980s and 2010s with both having 6-films each.
