I have a somewhat flirting, on-again-off-again interest with serious film criticism and cinema. For the time being, though, this page will simply list and link to films and directors that I love. I'll also probably add a sort of film wish list of the films that I want to see (in theaters or on video) or saw so long ago that I feel I should watch them again.

If I had to choose, my all time favorite film would be Brazil, directed by Terry Gilliam.
