This brings me to 62 for the whole list, I decided to add the eight or so films I'd seen about two years ago because I don't really feel urgent to see them again, maybe later on in the challenge. My previous post was counting only the last 18 or so months, so that's why the numbers are different. Luckily I spotted several films they'll be showing at the Norris Theater here at USC on campus in 35mm for classes, for my class we'll be seeing: the Seventh Seal, Contempt, Rashoman amongst others. Salò is the only stretch--I've watched between 1/2 and 2/3 of the film, and have no desire whatsoever to watch it through to its completion.

Ranking system:
- great movie
1/2 - just shy of perfection
- highly recommended
1/2 - recommended with reservations
- solid movie
1/2 - serious flaws
- endurable
1/2 - has one redeeming feature
0 - waste of time, patently offensive

I'll be keeping a master list of my progeress on the list here.
