As a post script to
my previous post, here is a list of the movies I have recorded from television but have yet watched. (There are a few others that I have watched that are not included here. I usually just record over them with a new one.) The first section is entirely from the NY Times' list of 1000 movies. The rest are just some random movies I thought were interesting and wanted to see.
