NATHANIEL R in Hit Me With Your Best Shot, blog-a-thons

This series was a big hit last year so we're bringing it back for round two in exactly two weeks time. Participating is easy. You just rent the movie, take a screencap of your favorite shot in the film and post it on your blog, journal, flickr, wherever. You can write an explanatory essay, a brief note or nothing at all. Let us know you posted it and we'll link up at 10 PM EST when The Film Experience post goes up.

Wed March 16th
  -  MEMENTO (2001, Tenth Anniversary Celebration)
Wed March 23rd - A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE (1951, Tennessee Williams Centennial Week)
Wed March 30th  -  PSYCHO  (1960, in celebration of the excellent debut novel "What You See in the Dark" by Manuel Muñoz that comes out that week. I read it in galley. More on that book/author soon.)
April Titles - TBA

So put those films on your queue. If you have other visually motivated friends that you think would enjoy this 'group gaze,' challenge them to participate. Last year we covered the following films: Requiem for a Dream (2000), Se7en (1995), Black Narcissus (1947), Pandora's Box (1929), Bring it On (2000), A Face in the Crowd (1957), Showgirls (1995),  Mean Girls (2004),  Night of the Hunter (1955), X-Men (2000) and Angels in America (2003).
