April, 2019

This is the first month I have that's absolutely dominated by scfz year polls, 13 for 1958 and one for the poll before that, leaving me only five (!! :shock: ) discretionary watches: Little Women (1994), two good docos, the tedious Jarman, Sebastiane, and the very crappy A Star is Born. I surely won't be dedicating as much time to the next poll.
