ReplyDeleteHi there,
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your site courtesy "1001 Movies You..." and I must say that I am really impressed by your passion for cinema. I would love to join CMBA... would also like to contribute an article on John Huston's The Maltese Falcon, if permitted. Please do let me how can I be a part of CMBA and the blogathon.
Regards,
Murtaza Ali

ReplyDeleteI must congratulate you all for a most daunting task...
ReplyDelete#1. trying to breathe new life into old chestnuts like Casablanca and Citizen Kane....and..
#2. reviewing and praising some marginal films like "Too Late for Tears" and "Sentimental Journey"
Great job, everyone! This was a lot of fun. I love when the CMBA gets together and this event had quite the turnout.

This is massively, horribly, not even on time...late. But, toddlers do not like schedules, deadlines...
