Fall is shaping up to be one busy season. My output over the next few months might be a
bit sporadic, but rest assured, I’m still alive and blogging. Here’s a sampling of what I have in store:
Silent September, my month-long tribute to silent
movies, is just around the corner. As a
result, or byproduct, it only seems natural that I’d take part in the GishSisters Blogathon,
sponsored by the inimitable Fritzi of Movies Silently.
On the heels of Silent September, will be October’s
annual Horror Month (not to mention Cinematic Catharsis’ third
anniversary!). As usual, I plan on covering
an assortment of familiar classics, personal favorites and new reviews from one
of my favorite genres. I’ll also premier
a new feature, “Double Take,” with a comparison of Psycho and Psycho II for Backlots’ Hitchcock Halloween blogathon on October 31st.
On a personal note, I’m looking forward to teaching
my first college course (gasp!). Yep,
the future of America is in my hands. Hmmm…
that’s a little scary when I put it that way.
As always, your comments and feedback are welcome
and appreciated. See ‘ya next post…
Congratulations on your teaching post, Barry. ... Looking forward to next month's series. I'm overdue on extending my familiarity with silent movies.
ReplyDeleteThanks, David! It's exciting and frightening at the same time, but mostly exciting.
DeleteI love silent films, but I feel there's so much territory I haven't explored. It's going to be an adventure.
Good luck on the teaching job! I'm sure you will be up for the task!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for your Silent September! As for October, I'm also keeping some Horror movies for this month! Maybe we'll have some similar titles!
Thanks for visiting, Michaël! I hope all is well. I appreciate the kind words too! :)
DeleteLooking forward to reviewing some old favorites during Silent September, and hopefully discovering new favorites as well.
I'll look forward to seeing what silent films you will pick. I can't resist tossing out one - The Passion of Joan of Arc. If you haven't seen it then it's well worth checking out.
ReplyDeleteThanks Chip! I have to admit I feel a little intimidated by that film for some odd reason, but it's definitely on my queue. Thanks for the suggestion.
