2014: My Year at the Flicks

OK, so in response to those of you who've inundated my inbox with hundreds of enquiries over the past 10 months, I'm still here, and below are the best films I saw (strictly at cinemas only) during 2014.

The Wolf of Wall Street (US, 2013)

Leo & Marty team up again for what is a 3-hour long romp, with some funny moments and occasional good bytes from the soundtrack.

Inside Llewin Davies (US, 2013)

A struggling musician on the fringes of the early 60's folk scene in The Gaslight, NYC, who may or may not have thrown in the towel just before the explosion.

The Blue Gardenia (US, 1953)

Another average noir-ish drama from F. Lang.

Deception (US, 1946)

Well made, but a little on the slow, stuffy and boring side.

2013: Films of the Year

It's not been the most prolific film-going year, because...stuff. As always, the only rule is that they be seen on a silver screen at a venue that accommodates the public.
