Marc's Big Movie List - 2016

I"m not much of a fan of TV, but I love the discrete, special experience of a movie. I see a lot of them, and nowadays it's so easy to see what you want when you want -- and generally, I do. What a blessing.

I keep a little diary of movies and my impressions of them just for my own edification, but here's a list of what I sought out this past year. It even amuses me a little at the range and variety of what I find interesting, from blockbuster to marginal, from prestigious to sleaze. Maybe you've seen some of these, too.
