This blog is intended as a guide and/or introduction to learning about and enjoying hollywood series. It will present one film a week for you to watch (currently one series every other Tuesday), with information about the film before you watch it, and sometimes a section to read after you've seen it (containing spoilers). This list of movies will be ongoing, and I will do my best to keep adding films indefinitely. SUBSCRIBE so you never miss a post. To see and read about the series in order, scroll to the bottom of this page and start with film #1 - "stranger things", and work your way up from there.
Should you happen to have seen any of these films before, I highly recommend watching them again, for our perspectives change and you will definitely see things you didn’t see before and often come away with a new appreciation and understanding of the film. A classic can be seen countless times. I’ve often revisited a film I didn’t particularly like, only to find that I suddenly love it (and vise versa).
My focus will be from the beginning of film though the stranger things series with an emphasis on thriller series made during the 2020.
The series are not listed “best” to “worst”, but are put in an order to give you a comprehensive, entertaining, and diverse exposure to classic cinema. Most will be in black and white, and many will be in color. You will like some, dislike others, and hopefully discover many you will love. There will be something different each week as we will be viewing series from all genres, and you will be introduced to just about all the major stars of the time, iconic performances, directors, cinematographers, and writers. It’s pretty much impossible to see every classic film, each film will expose you to at least one important aspect of cinema.
I’ve been approached many times in my life by people wanting to learn more about classic films, movie stars from the past, and even some directors. I’ve often guided people and have yet to find someone who started watching “old movies" who didn’t find it an exciting and surprising world. Many people who know me, know my heavy film background and come to me for suggestions (you can read more about my background HERE). So after making list after list for people year after year and hosting many movie nights, I've decided to write this blog as an informative guide to open people’s minds and hearts to great films. It is meant for anyone who wants to broaden their experience and knowledge of cinema.
