Out of the Past - A Classic Film Blog Posted by Raquel Stecher on Nov 30, -0001
I'm ending my 2018 Cinema Shame challenge with a bang! I continue my exploration of Michael Caine's filmography with a first time viewing of Get Carter (1971). While I was expecting a great thriller, what I wasn't expecting was one of the most brutal revenge stories of all time.

My 2019 Cinema Shame challenge got off to an auspicious start. Seven days into the year not only had I posted my challenge but I had also already seen two of the movies on my list.

Out of the Past - A Classic Film Blog Posted by Raquel Stecher on Nov 30, -0001
Before this year I had never seen a single movie in the Rocky franchise. Not one.
My friend Jay hosts a Cinema Shame podcast in which he invites a cinephile to watch a big film they've never seen before and come on to the show to discuss. On Twitter Jay challenged me to watch Rocky.

Cinema Shame: The Grass is Greener (1960)
Out of the Past - A Classic Film Blog Posted by Raquel Stecher on Nov 30, -0001
Anyone who knows me knows I love Robert Mitchum. He's my favorite actor. Bar none. So why did it take me so long to watch him in The Grass is Greener (1960)? Well I was getting around to it. It's been on my to-be-watched list for years. There aren't many Mitchum comedies so maybe I was saving t read more
Cinema Shame: Le samouraï (1967)
Out of the Past - A Classic Film Blog Posted by Raquel Stecher on Nov 30, -0001
When I was curating my Cinema Shame list for 2018, I looked to FilmStruck for some inspiration. Le samouraï (1967) is a staple on FilmStruck's Criterion Channel and one of the first films I noticed on the service when I signed up as a beta user. I wasn’t familiar with director Jean-P read more

I'm chipping away at my 2019 Cinema Shame challenge. This year I gave myself the goal to watch 10 movies from my birth year 1980 for the very first time. I'm hoping I can tackle a few reviews this summer so I can keep up!
Oh boy. I'm not even sure how Urban Cowboy (1980) made it onto my Cinema Sham read more

Cinema Shame: Fiddler on the Roof (1971)
Out of the Past - A Classic Film Blog Posted by Raquel Stecher on Nov 30, -0001
Fiddler on the Roof (1971) was always one of those classic musicals that I've meant to see but I never got around to. When the 2014 TCM Classic Film Festival schedule was announced, I saw the film was part of their Sunday morning line-up. And the director Norman Jewison, who has directed some o read more

The completist in me has spoken and I must finish Steve McQueen's filmography. Even if that means watching a terrible movie like Tom Horn (1980). And yes it is indeed terrible.
