Some Favourite Books

Visits? That Would Indicate Visitors!

The "Cyprus Mail": My main source of much-needed moolah. News, views and, of course, movie reviews - "Preston Wilder" is the pseudonym for yours truly.
Mike D'Angelo is the Benny Binion of online movie critics.
Now based in Houston, eloquent diehard Michael Sicinski takes a bold first step on the road back to Berkeley (his spiritual home). And there was much rejoicing.
Matt Lotti does the best Links ever. If only he liked the occasional movie, he'd be just about perfect.
Jeremy Heilman (a.k.a. the Movie Martyr) watches all the films you and I don't have the time or inclination to see. And he watches all the other films too, just to make sure.
Jason Overbeck is the only person on this list with an Oscar-winning film on his resumé.
Vadim Rizov will write trenchant criticism for your blog, magazine, networking site or bar mitzvah.
Dan Sallitt is some kind of guru.
Ryan Wu, a.k.a. Muse Malade, is my tenuous link to the blogosphere, the Red Sox and the finer points of Obama's awesomeness.
Paul Clark, a.k.a. Silly Hats Only, is my one-stop-shopping gateway to lists, quirky writings and the Muriel Awards.
"Rightwing film geek" Victor Morton is too hard on himself ; some might say he makes a religion out of it. He also updates about as often as the Pope sings in Swahili.
I don't know why it's taken so long to include Matt Prigge on these Links, but I've been meaning to do it for ages.
Life's little pleasures include watching old movies then checking to see what Fernando Croce has to say about them.
Eric Henderson, Adam Lemke and Zach Campbell veer dangerously close to the film-snob end of the spectrum, but you can't argue with smart people (or you can, but you'll probably lose).
IMDb users think The Shawshank Redemption is the second-greatest film of all time. Yet they also include Matthew Wilder and Darragh O'Donoghue.
IFC.com Daily makes me feel well-informed.
Rouge and Senses of Cinema make me feel intellectual.
Folco just makes me feel good about myself. I can't explain it.
