During my days as a student, I watched a lot of films. One day I set myself a challenge, and I urge people to try it. I sat down and wrote a list of 50 films which I wanted to see. This list included anything, from classics I heard at so many parties and had not seen, to movies just being released.
It took quite a while to compose a comprehensive collection, but once I had finished I was eager to begin. Some of the films on my list were: Schindler's List, Chinatown, Unforgiven, and even Young Frankenstein, among 46 others.
It took several months to find the time to watch all these films, as well as locating copies, but once I had finished I found that it had enriched my experience with movies. Having been so focused on watching so many movies in a short space of time, I began to see things about the medium which I would otherwise have never possessed.
So I urge all passionate movie watchers to make their list. Write down all those films you promised yourself that you would find the time to watch, and force yourself to watch them. I promise you, it will be the best thing you do all year!
