SCFZ

Another month, another letterboxd showdown: Agnes Varda/Chantal Akerman

How does it work?
I'll read data from the letterboxd accounts of SCFZ champs. I'll then use this data to answer a number of questions: Which Varda/Akerman movie was rated the highest by champs? Which was lowest-rated? Which champ has seen the most from Varda/Akerman? What are the movie that generated wildly different ratings? ETC.

When will I do this?
Friday April 26

What do you need to do?
Go to your letterboxd account. Rate/log Varda/Akerman movies you've seen.

New to SCFZ? Have a letterboxd account? Wanna play?
Let me know

In the ultimate showdown, each champ gets one vote: Your vote goes to the director whose movies you gave a higher average rating to. If you gave both directors the same average rating or you're one of those people who don't believe in ratings, your vote goes to no one.

Place your bets! Here are the questions - answer as many as you want:

1. How wins? Varda or Akerman? By how much? Example: Varda+ 5, Akerman+1, etc.
2. What Varda movie did champs rate the highest?
3. What Akerman movie did champs rate the highest?
4. Which champ has the seen the most Varda movies? How many did said champ see?
5. Which champ has the seen the most Akerman movies? How many did said champ see?

The winner gets to pick the next showdown.

1. Varda wins. +2
2. Vagabond
3. Jeanne Dielman
4. Someone must have seen them all... but I don't know who... Brian D?
5. Rischka. All of them?
