Hello, and welcome to my blog! I JUST FARTED BLOOD! Here I post my thoughts, and as you can see much of it is about film, directors, and the 90s! And now, for a confession: I am obsessed with Leonardo DiCaprio; there you have it, you now know all about me. If you like me, than enjoy this blog as well. Good day.

American Cinematographer Magazine's List of the 50 Films with the Best Cinematography, 1998-2008

moviescore:

It’s no accident that many, if not most of these movies have great original scores.  I think we just found a theme for an upcoming series of special Movie Score(s) A Day posts.
