These are the movies I’ve watched or rewatched over the last week or so, along with where they place in my year-by-year rankings. I’ve linked each to my short reviews on letterboxd as well. As you can see, I’ve been watching a lot of Johnnie To-related movies in preparation for a new episode of They Shot Pictures (check out the recently posted episode on Mikio Naruse). I also revived the Endy Awards (2011 and 2012), look for more of that kind of thing in the coming weeks.
