Birth of a Nation left?! I can do this…but do I want to do this, over Christmas…hmmm, some samurai movies maybe?
People doing this are also doing these things:

Lack of interest

I find myself not too interested in movies at the point and without a paid Netflix subscription now. =( So this goal will have to wait until I find a way to rent cheap movies again.

I wanted to see something with Lillian Gish, so this movie was the one that I could get. I tried my best to watch it without being horrified, but all of the stereotypes and some of the language…very cringe-y.
This one would be good to contrast with the Sheik, in the different portrayals of hero and heroine and cross-cultural love affairs.
One more to go…

My library does have DVD rentals…educational ones for free, others not so free. 2.75 per rental isn’t bad, but I’m reluctant to pony up the money.
I guess I’ll have to wait then.

My library has free DVD loans. I can’t believe I forgot about that. This way, I don’t have to wait for Netflix or buy the movies myself. I can just run out to the library and pick up a few.
Yay for libraries.

I’ll have to research this endeavor and find a list of movies to watch…and of course pair it with what’s available on netflix.

Just caught a couple on Turner Classic Movies. But I’m not sure how to go about finding these movies.
I could just sign up for Netflix. I’ve been meaning to, but I keep putting it off…

Clara Bow was very pretty, feisty and charming. I am glad that I got to see one of her movies. I would watch this one as a double feature with “It happened one night”.

After you watch Nosferatu

follow it up with “Shadow of the Vampire” a what-if story of the filming of Nosferatu in which Murnau (John Malkovich) engages a real vampire, Orlok/Shrek (Willem Defoe) to play the part of a vampire in his movie. Funny but also creepy, this is a great movie about film making and the vampirism of art.

Nosferatu (1922)

“Your wife has a beautiful neck…”
Fright Night was one of my favorite movies in junior high, so I’m glad I watched this movie.
The soundtrack included on the version I watched was just obnoxious, so turn it to mute.
