I try to watch 1 or 2 movies a day - oscar winning has no influence...

well... not positive..

I tend to be wary of multiple oscar winning films
because it may be an indication of dull middle of the road middle-brow emotionally manipulative moral worthiness...
eg.. Tom Hanks and Will Smith.. [though I'm finding Tom Hanks's roles more interesting & convincing as he ages]

I prefer low-brow exploitation trash and high-brow pretentiously disappearing up it's own arse cinema entertainment...

That's not to say i snobbishly avoid all middle ground stodge movies...

Some - even oscar winners - are good, even excellent, entertaining movies


One of my old school mates is now a well respected UK Film Critic,
we started off on an equal footing discovering and loving cinema..
He had the writing talent & networking skills to turn it into a creer..
we have similar tastes and opinions...
