S., I own five of those, myself! They’re all really good (especially when I finally finish Scenes…).
Savvy
Zachary: How many do you have total?
S., last I checked (I think), sixty-seven…
Savvy
Grrrr.
Hey, I’m sure you’ll get there, and sooner than you think, because you at least actually BUY movies! :D Even with those two I bought last night, none were Criterions.
Savvy
Zachary: Not that often though. Which ones do you own, apart from the five you mentioned? Unless that’s too much trouble.
S., I have a list of them all… somewhere… I think I did this thread before, actually, and that it just needs maybe Jeanne Dielman and Last Year at Marienbad added to it. :)
EDIT: Yeah, it’s on the first page. Just remember to also add The Seventh Seal to that list. :D
