A Goodbye...

So I know it was my aim to watch 365 films in 365 days but that's not going to happen as I basically have no time to do this since coming to university as I'm busy with that. So this will be my last post and I hope that those reading this blog have enjoyed it. I am thinking of starting another blog as a long term blog but that will be much more casual then this one and probably won't just be about films but other things as well like food. So thank you! x

Film #273: FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS (2011)

This is a really good watch in a bad way. The narrative is predictable but it's really funny which is strange for an American comedy film. I think that Justin Timberlake is a much better actor than he is music artist and I really think that he should make it his full time gig. I also think that Mila Kunis is a really underrated actress I think she really has improved since she first started as a young teen actress. This is a really good young adult film to watch with friends.

Film #272: ALICE (1988)

Before Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland there was this live action film based from the brilliant novel by Lewis Carroll. This was a really amazing film. However I prefer Burton's version. Don't ask me why I just do. But I did still really enjoy this film as well. I just really love the Alice in Wonderland in general!

Film #270: THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES (1946)

This film was damn near perfect. Seriously I loved it and I thought it was absolutely beautiful. It was also very symbolic of the time of men coming out of war and going back to a new reality with new challenges. This was a triumphant of a film that grabbed the audiences attention and emotions right from the beginning. It truly is a phenomenal film.

Film #269: THE ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD (1938)

I love a good Robin Hood film and this definitely was a brilliant Robin Hood film. At points it was a little cheesy but it wasn't overboard. I thought that the film was composed very well. Also the costumes were really good considering the time in which this film was made. As well as the colour being a lot more under control than in the previous review. With films and eras like this I always wonder how amazing it must have been to see the turn of the colour film and to see how quickly to industry moved as a result of the new technology as it was definitely at a quicker pace than it is these days.

Film #268: BECKY SHARP (1935)

This was the first/one of the first films to be filmed using tricolour technology to give standard colour that we know today. Well sort of standard colour as it was bright in contrast. But it was a pretty good film overall and was quite enjoyable although it hurt my eyes to watch it for too long.

Film #267: BULLDOG DRUMMOND (1929)

I thought this was a good film, I liked how the camera was used in shot for effect using deep focus. And as well thought that it was very well edited for it's time to keep the audience involved. There are a couple of moments with some very dodgy sound as a result of recording sounds and adding them over the top. But overall the whole film is a good watch and I did enjoy it.
