The Valentine's 2012 Celebration...
Good evening, folks. Hope everyone's doing fine. Due to some intense Serie A action today (our version of the SuperBowl), I'm two reviews behind: I still owe you CELLULAR and THE GREY. Please expect those reviews to post, schedule willing, by Wednesday, at the latest.
Then we start our Valentine's 2012 Celebration. Please find below the schedule for reviews for the whole month of February. Due to some Valentine's travel, other social engagements, and the increased activity on the soccer blog, please expect some gaps between reviews this month. No worries, though: they'll all post. The order may also change based on which reviews get done first.
Our movies explore Love in all its shapes and sizes: Straight love, gay love, friendly love, familial love, love for ideals, love for sports, love of art, and more.
