These past months stuck indoors have opened my mind toward a lot of cinema I had shrugged off or avoided over the years. I suddenly had time and came across some hidden gems, some titles I hated, and some stuff that fell somewhere in-between. 

It turns out, I'm not the only one doing this. 


Writer/director Edgar Wright has been watching a few movies a day and compiling a list of what he saw. Total Magazine published the list, and we have it here for you to check out. 

Maybe you have some crossover.

Love any of the movies he watched or think everyone should check them out? I want to know about it.
