Follow-up to Sideways

Posted in Query tagged , at 4:47 pm by thatmovieguy

So in thinking more about that last post…I started thinking all about road movies. And I tend to end up thinking about films in terms of High Fidelity…top 5 lists for a specialized category. So maybe its because I’m still thinking a lot about Sideways, maybe its because I love road movies, or maybe its because I’d just like to see one comment posted on this page…but I’m just wondering what you, the reader, have in your top 5 road movies of all time.

All types of road movies accepted, be it a journey that changes everything ala Motorcycle Diaries, or a vacation that that the way of National Lampoon Vacation. I could see deserving arguments for both. So please, if you do read this, share. And hopefully you’ll give me a few more movies to add to my Netflix queue (as though I need any more…)

I’d also like to pretend I choose the cover art from SFU S5 because that way it wouldn’t tip my hand as to my movies…but lets be real, I love that show and I love that image.

If this post didn’t satiate your need to read, here’s an interesting pre-Oscars article. Not too much about what’s in the running this year yet…moreso an oft heard complaint voiced well, about Oscar campaigning and its effects on the world of cinema. Check it out if you have the time.
