Films of the Year 2017
Somewhat belatedly (because I am abroad), this is my annual list of films I've watched in 2017 and, in keeping with the close of every year since 2003, it's
time to review the ones I've seen over the last twelve months.
In 2017, I made it to the cinema on 83 occasions - down from 96 in 2016. Overwhelmingly, these visits were to my local Stratford Picturehouse and according to the stats on Letterboxd, this amounted to 159.4 hours of cinema.
As always, this does not include anything watched on DVD or BluRay and as in previous years, I've arbitrarily rated the films I've seen. You can find ratings for the last decade here.
Since I started going to the cinema regularly and keeping track of the numbers, I now make this 826 visits since 2003. Onward and upward.
