Is it really a confession if everyone knows it?

My priest says yes.

I might have got a smug sense of satisfaction from all the '20s films I've seen when I updated my lists.

According to my spreadsheet, I have seen 34 films from the 1920s. I am guessing your number is much higher.

I've seen 77. Still a lot of silent films I want to see.

133, which I feel isn't enough to get smug about. Especially because I'm certain that 1SO's count is far greater.

I love our polls, but whenever I see one person has posted in like 10, I hit that mark as unread button faster than a teen hits the close button when his mom walks in the room.

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

You either die a hero or live long enough to become a poll whore.

237, but of course that includes a lot of shorts. Besides, it's not about quantity, but the great films you discover, like 3 Bad Men and The Last Command.

I haven't watched nearly as many films of the 20s, but I affirm that The Last Command is great.
