Hopefully 2013 will be far kinder to you in those departments.<br /><br />Secondly, Letterboxd was one of my favourite discoveries of the year. It has made it so much easier to keep up with what I have seen given week or month.<br /><br />Lastly, I love that names like Bresson, and Tarkovsky can be put on a list alongside CM Punk. It made me smile immensely. <br /><br />All the best for 2013. Looking forward to your next round of The Auteurs Series.Courtney Smallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00045575858464121137noreply@blogger.com
