A Film a Day for 100 Days

Broken Plot Device, thought up as an alternative to me being unable to think of an actual clever and witty title, is a blog run by me, Jon Thomas, on articles mainly relating to film, film technology, film reviews, whatever the hell else I decide to write about, etc.

As my first project relating to this blog, I present you with A Film a Day for 100 Days!  For one hundred most likely not consecutive days, I shall pick a film that I find either historically important, artistically important, or that I just kind of like.  This involves me watching a crap-ton of movies and making the most out of my Netflix membership.

I essentially have my list all planned out, but if there is a film you think deserves a nod, please mention it in any of the comments.  Unlike most favorite movie lists, which seem to consist entirely of foreign films and movies made in the '20s, this list is mostly made of American movies made in the last 50 years, since I grew up watching American movies made in the last 50 years.  That being said, there will be a few old and foreign films making the cut, so don't get all upset when they do.

So I'll get rid of the old-as-shit movies right away, starting with the Great Train Robbery.  So, enjoy.
