Title: movies you missed
Post by: Jeremy Blackman on November 29, 2003, 01:48:22 AM
So far this year, the important movies I've missed are... Elephant, American Splendor, Russian Ark, Whale Rider, Gerry, Seabiscuit (and probably more)...  :yabbse-sad:

Is Seabiscuit important? If so, then that's the one I missed. That and Spellbound (I know, I know, technically that counts as a 2002 release, but whatever).

Most of the movies I didn't see in theaters I saw on video. I almost missed Lost in Translation but it was held over at the Landmark Theatre in New Orleans. Great, great, great movie!

Elephant is still showing though, in NY and LA, and it hasn't even expanded to other cities yet... right? It just came out in those two cities a few weeks ago

I think it's down to only one theater in the LA area (there wasn't even an ad for it in this Friday's LA Times), and I don't think I'm gonna make it out to Hollywood anytime soon.

Elephant expanded in Toronto so I'll be seeing it shortly.
I also missed everything else on Mac's list. :(
