taste....also known as standards or discernment.Merely having been released on DVD doesn't, for me automatically qualify some visual arts compilation as worth watching.Why don't you make some suggestions for me?
- Gee... I dunno... I keep adding more films to the queue, faster than I can see them - Victor Khomenko 20:02:18 12/08/06 (3)
  And I have been doing this for close to four decades.
  With the number of good new films coming up there's not enough time to revisit the classics. Four to six films a week is not enough to keep the pace.

    so this is not a problem though my knowledge of the existence of such films is limited.Honestly,as interesting as They Drive by Night with Bogey was i felt it was near the bottom of the barrel.I really felt stumped in finding anything appearing interesting and i didn't want to just start reviewing old standbys. Maybe the three months fast will show me some of these new movies Netflix has added and I'll have a pleasant surprise in store for the rest of the Winter which after all is the time of year you need good movies to enjoy inside.I hope what i meant as a teasing jest to Tinear wasn't given any serious weight.. Its evident in reading his posts he doesn't lack good insight into quality films.
    - No, he doesn't, and neither do many other posters here - Victor Khomenko 20:18:07 12/08/06 (1)
      But I guess we all have our roads... I am just mightily surprised at what you are saying.

        I didn't mean my statement to be some kind of declaration that I have seen all there is to see by any means only that I wasn't finding any when i needed to refill my queue that looked terribly appealing.
        I've been a Netflix member for a several years,pretty much since they began.I suppose i am rather conservative and am hesitant to simply add anything to the queue just to check it out.One area i haven't explored at all is Asian films i think because the Culture is so very foreign to mine here in the US that i fear lacking any reference points will make it a wasted effort.I can relate with Bergman's films though they be in Swedish and some French and Polish films, Solaris was the only Russian film i rented but Netflix will automatically reactivate on January 1st so i am hunting for Films to add to the list.
