The Daily Movie Challenge

I heard once that, while working on Kill Bill, Quentin Tarentino watched a movie every single day. I don't know where I heard that. I probably made that up.

Whatever that impish asshole actually did, I think I'm like to watch a movie a day. I keep saying, "Oh, I should see that movie," but I never do. But perhaps if a set a PRECEDENT, my will might be bolstered.

I figured today was as good a day as any to start.

SO. UH.

I watched Casablanca finally. For some reason, the first thing that struck me was the great score, and not just As Time Goes By.

It's been a while since I wished I was a fictional character, but man, do I wish I was Rick.

It's amazing how iconic this movie is. Everything, everyone. It's a near-perfect culmination of character and story.

Needed more Peter Lorre, though.
