Films of 2011 - December Update

The years over and I’m glad to say I watched a ton of great movies this year, 169 to be precise.  I managed to watch movies in some great places, I’ve seen numerous films at the British Film Institute, I saw Drive & Attack the Block in the presence of their directors, watched Die Hard and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World at an outdoor cinema with good friends and sipped cocktails whilst watching Lost in Translation on a rooftop bar in London.

I really love going to the movies and it’s something I look forward to continue doing in the year to come. These lists have been a great way of keeping track of the trends of how and what I watched. 

In December I saw sixteen movies:

  • My Week with Marilyn 
  • Moneyball
  • Rango
  • Hugo - 3D
  • Love Actually
  • Hannah and her Sisters
