Happy New Year gang!
Some bio-docs for the first round of 2016.
NB:
John Milius, responsible for iconic dialogue in films like Apocalypse Now and Jaws, suffered a paralysing stroke.
Artist Nicola Constantino infamously made soap out of her own body fat.
"Ray Harryhausen: Special Effects Titan" was directed by Gilles Penso.

Off topic: Thanks for the Mad Max vote, demonic (I asume). By strange coincidence, I've also watched it today.
Edit: Oh, maybe not. I'd just seen the accolade title but is it one hundred films you're planning to see? |

No, that is the list of films I saw in the cinema in 2015 (squeezed in a few last week to make sure I made the milestone). I had a quick look and I did vote before on your highest MM:FR review.
By the way I added Rocky Horror Live to the FWFR database if you want to add it to your 2015 list. |

But the accolade says 2016. Confused. Is it an Oscars style thing? Congrats on reaching the century though. I normally aim for that too, but where I live now there is only one film a week, which I have often seen previously on weekends away anyway, so I fell very short last year. On track this year so far thanks to this Movie Garden though, but : Kill Bill Vols. I and II today, if the electricity has not heolds out. 
Thanks; will do. |

Ah, that's just my confusion, not yours... I've been dozy and bunged up since New Year, so I didn't even notice. Fixed it, thanks.
It's my first year hitting triple figures - combination of long stretches between jobs and a very active week and a half at this year's LFF, which I've not been around to attend in recent years. Very addictive seeing three films a day every day... |

Love manically fitting in as many as possible at a film festival. When I was freelancing/unemployed in London was also when I got into seeing huge numbers: seven in a day once. |

Whoa. I doubt I could handle that many. Four is probably my maximum before I start getting crazy. |
