The List

Those of you who know me, may know that I love movies. I like to think of myself as a movie connoisseur of sorts. I check imdb.com all the time - certainly more than is healthy. But I realized about a year back that I had not seen many influential and great movies. To help me remember which ones I still need to see, I compiled what is now known as "The List".

In order for a movie title to get on the list, it must either be a classic or be highly recommended by several different people. These are movies that I have not seen, but I plan to see in the future. Once a movie gets on the list, it does not get removed until I watch it.
