Movie of the Month: For classics, it has to be Lawrence of Arabia. So glad I was able to see that on the big screen. For modern films, Oslo, August 31st blew me away. Still plan on doing a full review for that, but it will easily make my top ten list this year.
Dud of the Month: GoldenEye has not aged well at all. The worst Bond film I have seen.
Final Yearly Total: 280
