Are you a film buff like I am?
I recently stumbled upon the website Letterboxd where a person can catalog, track, rate, and comment on all of the movies that they have seen as well as make a watchlist of films they want to view. They can then connect with like-minded moviegoers and compare notes.
I'm connected there with my son Mitchell. We share a love and strong bond of watching movies together and discussing them. About 25 years ago, with my pal and colleague Ryan Reeves, we used to run a film club at Springfield College in Illinois (before the college was absorbed into Benedictine University and later permanently closed). It was one of my favorite memories and expediences of working at that college for those 20 years.
I'm still going through the website and cataloging the films that I have seen in my lifetime. I've got listed over 800 films so far, but I know that I've seen more than than over the last five decades or so. I will keep looking at lists and try to remember so that I can input them into the site.
Anyway, you can find me on Letterboxd and can connect with me with a follow if you like...
