Re: Doubling the Canon 2023 Update - Results!

Does the dubious honour of nominating the top runner-up film mean anything? Will it get revoted next year? Glad I got the Schorm in, genuine hidden gem.

Re: SCFZ poll: Robert De Niro

Yeah, I'm just grumbling, people will engage with whatever strikes their fancy plus the forum just feels generally quieter these days.

Re: SCFZ poll: Catherine Deneuve

I'm going to watch one more movie this weekend and close this, not expecting any more ballots at this point. Same for JLT. Quick question to those who have seen it, though, my DVD of Tristana has both the Spanish and the French version on it, anyone know which one I should be going for?

Re: SCFZ poll: Jean-Louis Trintignant

Still hoping for more ballots, watched Z in the meantime which was superb and had JLT on great form as ever, I love that glint he gets in his eye when he catches someone lying to him. Making my decision for the list even more difficult, gonna watch one or two more then close. Same drill for Deneuve....
