Congratulations! Zowie!

Congratulations! What a major accomplishment!

You totally did save the best for last!! Less enthusiastic response than I was expecting but I'm glad you liked it. What did you think of Vivien?

The first half and the last 30 minutes are among the best things I've ever seen, but after the intermission it really takes a while to get going again; it feels like it's lost track of its storyline. But it ends so well! I found it interesting how effective some of the scenes were, even though I feel like I knew them by heart because they've been quoted and parodied so many times. When Scarlett gives her "I'll never go hungry again" speech, I got goosebumps all over, it was so moving. And Rhett's "frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn" is like a punch in the gut, even though I knew it was coming.

I loved Vivien most of all! It's so weird--I'd probably never think to list her as one of my favorite actresses, but I think she gave two of the ten best Best Actress winning performances of all time. Maybe I'll have to revise my list of favorite actresses.

Well when the intermission comes it's the end of the Old South as she knows it, and so after the break it's in a transitory phase and trying to settle the whole thing down. I guess by your comments that the "Frank Kennedy" years are the bits you least enjoyed. It maybe feels as if it should start to get happier since the intermission comes at such a depressing time in her life, and sometimes I wished for more parties, drinking and flirting that littered the first half, but I think this portion of the film does a lot for Scarlett as a character. It's the first time she's really ever sensible, and the tone of the film in this section maybe represents her coming to terms with her time in Georgia and the gruelling journey to Tara.

Sorry if I'm waffling on. Lol. I've seen it so many times I think the urge to defend it is in my blood.

Oh. As for Vivien, I know what you mean. I've only seen her in GWTW, Streetcar (my fave two Best Actress winning performances), and Waterloo Bridge, so I kind of decided that she couldn't really be my favourite, especially when so many of my other favourites were so prolific in their day.

Congratulations! Good job!

Holy hell, that's freaking amazing, man! Congrats!

Wow, congratulations! And you ended with one of the greatest.

Wow, amazing! Congrats!

Yeah, I am a little late, but congratulations on completing the Best Picture marathon of a lifetime! I feel very proud to have been there toward the beginning. It is really fitting that you ended up on what some people consider the best picture of all time. It is definitely in my top 200! :-P

I'm still sad that I was out of town for this momentous occasion, but I cheer you on! I cheer you!

Maybe I'll be there for the last Director?

Thanks, everyone! Nick, I'll be sure to save that one for you. I'll have to figure out which one it will be--maybe I'll keep the save-Altman-for-last (or nearly last) and make it Short Cuts.

If a print of The Patriot is discovered will you start from the top of list and watch them all over again? :D

Congrats, dude. GWTW is a fine way to cap your journey.

Wow! Congratulations on a crazy ambitious goal. I'm having a hard time just finishing off my Best Picture list.
