(she's fine, it's just for the alliteration)

Hi! I'm Chwoka, and for someone who really likes movies, I sure haven't seen a lot! I've created this highly alliterative movie month for myself to fill in the gaps in my filmic knowledge, from the culturally-ubiquitous movies that everyone always references but I've never seen, to the ones of great notability as great and Canonical Cinema, or even hopefully both! I'll be watching one movie every day in July. (This plan might collapse in on itself like a house of cards, but it's important to set goals!) The list I've made for myself:

Taxi Driver (1h 54m)
Network (2h 1m)
Mad Max (1h 22m)
The Thin Man (1h 33m)
The Godfather (2h 55m)
Sunset Boulevard (1h 55m)
Apocalypse Now (4h 49m, jesus christ!)
Eraserhead (1h 49m)
Brazil (2h 23m)
The Usual Suspects (1h 48m)
Fargo (1h 38m)
The Graduate (1h 46m)
Oldboy [2003] (2h)
Naked Lunch (1h 55m)
The Discreet Charm Of The Bourgeois (1h 45m)
Breathless (1h 30m)
Clerks (1h 45m)
Annie Hall (1h 33m)
Do The Right Thing (2h 5m)
Jaws (2h 15m)
The Wild Bunch (2h 35m)
The Conversation (1h 53m)
The 400 Blows (1h 39m)
Easy Rider (1h 35m)
The Breakfast Club (2h 10m)
Scarface [1983] (2h 50m)
The Godfather II (3h 20m)
Boogie Nights (2h 36m)
2001: A Space Odyssey (2h 41m)
Star Wars (2h 5m)
Drive (1h 43m)

Feel free to join in with me if you like, drop in to talk about movies on the list you've already seen, whatever. I'll try to keep up and say a little something about every movie I watch, get some screencaps. For reference, my personal spoiler policy is: I don't care at all about spoilers. If it would stand up on a second watching, and it should if it's worth a shit, then knowing what happens next doesn't ruin it. The plot's not the important part of a movie anyway.
