My friends at rednoW have put together an interesting film-viewing project for 2010 and you’re invited to participate.
For the upcoming year, we are inviting you to delve “into the dark” with us – a project inspired by rednoW’s de facto sage Craig Detweiler – and his latest book Into the Dark. In short, we are inviting you to experience 60 films this year (5 films per month). We are by no means intending to be exclusive in who is a part of this project, but we are hoping for a committed group.
How it will Work…
At the beginning of each month, we will send out 5 films for the upcoming month. These films will concentrate on what Detweiler argues as the emerging or “new canon” – recent films (since 2000) that have found their way into IMDB’s Top 250 list. This is not to say that we will not deter from this list each month, but we will view it as a worthy starting point. Because we want to offer a variety of experiences throughout the month/year, we will generally breakdown our month as follows:
1 current film (in theaters), 1 film from the “new canon” (American), 1 foreign film, 1 documentary, and 1 older film (pre-2000).
Those of you who enjoy films will love this experience. And those of you who complain that good movies aren’t made anymore should sign up. Check the rednoW website for more details.
