How I Watched 365 Movies in 365 Days And Didn't Go Insane

Or maybe I did and just didn't realise.

Certainly by the end I was starting to wonder which day of the week it was and even accidentally posted blog posts that were only half finished which is so not a good thing to do when blogging so I apologise now for some of the weird posts you may have seen over the last few weeks.

So what did get I get out of it other than a little madness?

Well I learned that setting a goal can be good and bad.  I fell in love and discovered lots of movies, which is kind of what I set out to achieve, but with such a hard target it did by the end feel a little bit more like a job than a fun thing to do.

Would I do it again?

Probably not.  Life is too short.  Instead I'd probably set myself an easier target such as 100 movies in 1 Year which seems a lot more manageable.

Do I regret doing it?

Nope, not ever - even if I did complain about it a lot and most likely drove everyone around me crazy. 

Do you have a list of every movie you watched? 

Yes I do.  And if you're interested click here to check it out 

What else did I discover?

Quite a  lot actually...

• Movies I liked as a teenager were still just as enjoyable today which probably shows that my tastes haven't changed a great deal over the years. 
• Many of the big 'great' movies tended to be not so great for me
• I have a thing about hair.  Robert Redford's 70s hair was seriously the best thing ever and deserves an Oscar all on it's own
• And also eyebrows.  Bette Davis and Margaret Lockwood gave amazing good brow
• And fashion.  Particularly 50s fashion. Grace Kelly's and Ava G's wardrobes were to die for or at least worth crying over and wishing for.
