As one gets older, the blogs one has begun and subsequently let lapse loom as so many stale concerns strewn behind one--like passions cooled but still embodied in some t-shirt you stole from that person. "Here was my youth," one thinks...or, more often, "Was I really like that? Did I think those things?"

This is a new blog about movies.

David Denby favorably compares "There Will Be Blood" to John Ford's finest. Maybe you got out too far in front for the year's "best of" list??

Umm, Transformers didn't make the list? Thought I mentioned something about this to Derek already.
