How I did it: Had a trip to Italy coming up, so I saved, price shopped on the internet, and bought a Nikon D60 from Beach Camera for a great price. Then went to Italy, and took amazing photographs. Read how I did it…
When I decided to complete the list, I had seen 54 of 100. After watching “Duck Soup” this evening, I’ve made it through all 100. Some dogs… some new favorites. It was most interesting to see which older films still held up, and which ones clearly offered something edgy at the time, but whose time had evidently passed. The enthusiasm I felt as I broke into the last 15 was great, and the sensation of completion is awesome.
After just watching “The Deer Hunter” I am just 2 films away from completing the AFI 100. I should be able to achieve this goal over this weekend, finishing off the list with “The French Connection” and “Duck Soup.”
86 down now, after finishing One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.
The next 3 in hand, either on DVD or on my DVR. Gonna finish this goal. The finish line is almost in sight!
