The Film Book
Have I mentioned my summer project yet? I like having summer projects; I don’t do well with free, unstructured time (even weekends make me feel weird when I can’t stay up late to watch Saturday Night Live). Last summer, it was making my Eowyn costume, and this summer, it’s my cinematic education. I was raised in what amounted to a cultural vacuum, hence my irrational love for the eighties, since it was the first cohesive clump of pop culture that reached me. This means that I have never seen The Wizard of Oz (a state I think I’m going to preserve, simply because I can), so I’ve decided to take it upon myself to catch up on film. It’s only a century, right?
