I still haven't seen No Country For Old Men. I LOVE the Coen Brothers but it's just one of those films I haven't gotten around to seeing. And now I know too much about the film, the violence, Javier Bardem, that there's a crazy ending and knowing these things taints the movie experience for me. That's probably why I still haven't seen Crash even though I hear it's an amazing film with wonderful performances. But I'm gonna work on this. This is a list of the Oscar Best Picture winners for the last twenty years. My goal is to watch all the ones I haven't seen yet. First up, Deer Hunter!!!

Wow, I have not seen 12 of these films. Does this mean I now have to see Driving Ms. Daisy? Damn.
Is it sad that I have seen every one of these films? Well, I guess I can't count No Country because I've only seen 30 minutes of it before the fire alarm went off in the theatre. So, I guess I still need to see that one!

I think this is a great idea to try and see these movies. I'm a big film buff so I've seen all but one. As for No Country for Old Men, feel free to read my review at http://rnrreviews.blogspot.com/2008/04/no-country-for-old-men.html
