Beyond the Valley of the Cinephiles

I decided to assemble a list of 100 Films I aim to see, hopefully (although not realistically) in the next year. I like having goals. Here is a goal. If I post it here, there is much less chance I’ll go back and add 500 more films. I won’t strickly be watching films from the list, although I’ll make an effort to prioritize them.
