MY GOAL IS TO SEE 100 NEW (to me) MOVIES BY OCTOBER 24, 2008

New movies, old movies, made for TV, on dvd, on TV, in a theater... anything. I just want to increase my movie knowledge by 100 movies in 100 days.

Day 52, total films watched: 59

Faith of My Fathers -DVD- ***

This was a made for tv film about John McCain's time in a POW camp. The film told a compelling story and through use of flashbacks kept it from being monotonus (I am sure being in a cell for 1,900 days is monotous... at best.)
The highlight of the film is Scott Glenn as McCain's father. Good stuff, but never rises too much above the TV film level.
