These are the posters of the films I have watched from January to June 2025: 8 films. There are actually many on my watchlist but these are the films I have watched and reviewed. I will post my reviews of these films later.

I skimmed Patrick McGilligan’s recent biography of Woody Allen today. Like the reviewer, I found the writing on the film making, especially Allen's work with the cinematographer Gordon Willis, rewarding.

While working on his book, McGilligan polled "104 US film critics, scholars, and entertainment journalists" to discover which of Allen's films rated most highly by informed viewers. Here are the results:

1) Annie Hall (84 votes)

2) Crimes and Misdemeanors (54); Hannah and Her Sisters (54)

3) Manhattan (46)

4) Purple Rose of Cairo (26)

5) Midnight in Paris (24)

6) Zelig (21)

7) Broadway Danny Rose (20)

8) Radio Days (18); Match Point (18)

9) Vicky Cristina Barcelona (13); Blue Jasmine (13)

10) Bullets over Broadway (12)

“Pope Leo XIII was the last to use this name nearly 150 years ago after today's election of Leo XIV, and was the earliest-born person ever captured on film.

He was born in 1810 and filmed in 1896.”

I didn't think it was going to be this bumpy!
