Casablanca (1942)

Revisit
Format: Blu-ray
Venue: Rivendell

I love every frame of this film with a passion. One of the greatest films ever made and a definitive argument for black-and-white films receiving the Blu-ray treatment. It just makes me happy to watch.

The Departed (2006)

Revisit
Format: Blu-ray
Venue: Rivendell

The Good: One of my favorite films of all time. Having been obsessed with gangster movies since I was a kid, there really is nobody better than Marty Scorsese. I actually saw, and fell in love with, Infernal Affairs before Scorsese remade it and I love the direction in which he took it. Fantastic script, incredible performances, and an ending that makes me infinitely happy.

The Bad: Some people might think it's too long, I do not.

The Weird: Jack Nicholson, need I say more.
