To celebrate 100 posts

We're back again and to celebrate 100 posts, meaning that I've completed the challenge initially set of watching 100 films in a year I watched Raging Bull. Yeah i can hear some of you saying 'that's a celebration?' it's not, we had more than 100 films on the list and to be clear i've got something like 9 films left to go:
life of Pi,
Amazing spider-man
Dead man's shoes,
cloverfield,
28 days in paris,
This is spinal tap,
Freaks,
Fatal Attraction
The way we were.

I want to get them all done within the next week so keep watching this space.
I've got a manic week at work before we move in to the christmas holidays so if i don't finish it then i'll to watch them in the christmas holidays but fingers crossed that i'll get them done by the end of next week so that i can finish deciding on films for next years challenge.

Robert De Niro stars in Raging Bull. The film about a boxer and the way he treats his family. This is black and white so it was before Rocky and is much better than rocky.

There isn't much of a soundtrack, so that cuts out any analysing of that.
Next on to shots. There are loads of close ups and i really hate loads of close ups. Loads of bridging shots. I want to say that it isn't shot well but that was probably more to do with the time in which it was filmed. Everything is either really close up, straight ahead from a distance or at an awkward angle to the side.
in the ring there a several spinning shots that make me feel like i've drunk too much and kinda make me want to vomit. Occasionally this is good but i found it really distracting because i couldn't work out what was going on at the moment and in the film the fight was still going on.
A badly shot movie isn't necessarily a bad movie. Robert De Niro doesn't tend to make bad films.
