52 Week movie challenge
Discussion
Someone in work had a book about films for a Christmas present, part of it was to watch a movie a week with a different theme for each, he's going to be doing it, and I'm going to aim to do it too. This is the list, with a bit of spreadsheet/Gemini fiddling I've got it saved as a file I can update each week with columns added for the film and the date I watched it. I'll spoiler it to keep things short.
