great idea.
I like how you choose which film to donate to, making it a fierce competition among themselves for survival. Only the popular clique will be restored!
Yes. I’d like to see BFI create a running tally! It would inspire more discussion and maybe even prompt a few donations. I’d hate to see Champagne come last, even if it was his least favourite film, it has the most frivolous title, and that deserves preservation if for nothing else, the obscurity!
The list has had some twitter love today. Good to see the word is getting around :)
