Seen all of those except Ulysses' Gaze.
I have seen seven of Angelopoulos' films. Ulysses' Gaze is my favorite.

I'm designating the month of February for catch-up. You can post reviews of anything you watch specifically for this bracket here.

The bracket will start in March.

Is it wise to do that this month, with so many other projects looming?

There isn't really a better time and this goes well with March Madness.

Here's what seems to be shaping up for the year.
Jan/Feb: Filmspots and 2016 catch-up
March: Westerns
April: 2016 Discoveries
May: Music/Musicals
June-Aug: Summer of Hitchcock. This will be started early, but these months will be a more concentrated group marathon.
Oct: Horror
Dec: DOCember

I was going to say I have no interest in marathoning that, but revisiting the list there is are enough movies I already intended to watch soon to participate.

I didn't watch any movies. Neither did you. Let's do this.
