Movie Roundup: Trade Deadline Edition


Between unhealthy amounts of work, various travels around the state a rewatchings of Deadwood and Mad Men, and reading Infinite Jest (I'm halfway through! It's great!) I haven't had much time for movie watching over the last month, certainly not for writing about movie watching. Coming up, as we're all on the edge of our seat with anticipation over how the Mariner front office will reshape the team in the next week, is the opening of Metro Classics. There's a lot of good stuff on our blog over their, including an appreciation of our opening film, Stanley Donen's Charade, by our friend Ryland Walker Knight.
