2019 Movie Diary

For 2019 I wanted to watch move movies and keep a diary on Letterboxd. I remember seeing Steven Soderbergh post an end-of-year watch list and I had just discovered the social movie rating/review/diary site in December, so it seemed like a good idea. A year long project that wasn’t as intensive as some of my other year long projects.

So I started thinking of how I’d rate movies on a 5-star scale and add them as soon as the credits rolled. I had fun doing it and will keep it up - just, maybe not as many movies as last year. Here’s the video version I made for Instagram and below is the full list.
