It would probably be easier for you to pick the film, especially with me up for anything.
Or we could pick a year (or genre or actor or whatever) and each pick a film and do a double feature, given how short and watchable much of classic Hollywood tends to be. I don't think I'd be overly challenged to pick films you haven't seen and vice versa, perhaps successfully so like with
A Walk in the Sun and
Counselor-at-Law.
I want to get back into the 1945 Retrospots as well, but that's more of a group effort and harder to coordinate. I'm looking to start something smaller and more certain and see where it goes.
edit: Perhaps for now I’ll just try to jump in on one film a week from your Directors marathon. I was planning to watch (or rewatch)
Night and the City this November, for example, but it’d make more sense for me to watch it now so I can discuss it with else who’s just watched it.
