Film Friday | Weekly Roundup

Well I suppose the holidays are officially over. If you didn’t find Charlie Chaplin’s hat wrapped up under your Christmas tree, you’ll probably have to wait til next year. Or at least until your birthday. Maybe you should resolve to be nicer to your family? At any rate, hopefully the turkey, the turkey sandwiches, and the turkey stew have all been eaten and you won’t have to look at turkey again for at least 10 months. My New Year’s Resolutions are to watch more movies and eat more chocolate. (Ah, see what I did there?) Wishing you all the best in the new year, especially if you don’t have Pretty Clever Resolutions. Happy reading and happy viewing!
