A LIST OF 118 MOVIES TO RENT!
HomeJournalBioComicsMusicPixLinksEmail
 The purpose of this movie challenge is: 1) When I walk into a video store, I always forget what movies I wanted to rent and 2) I have trouble making myself rent movies that I've heard are good and/or important, but seem intimidating or boring. On 09/08/2002, I printed out a list of movies by my favorite directors and decided that I would see every movie on the list. I am starting with A-C: Woody Allen, Robert Altman, PT Anderson, Wes Anderson, Luis Bunuel, Tim Burton and Frank Capra. If a title is red, then you should see it!
Check out my other movie challenges: IMDB Top 250, IMDB Top 50 by Genres, IMDB Top 50 by Decade, Academy Award Winners, Cannes Winners, Favorite Directors (A-C), Favorite Directors (F-G), Favorite Directors (H), Favorite Directors (K-L), Favorite Directors (P-T) and Favorite Directors (W).
