Introduction

1001 movies you must see before you die. Must I? Let's see.

My name is Dagmar and I am from Czech Republic. I have a bachelor's degree in screenwriting. I study movies. I watch movies. I write about movies. I kind of mention movies a lot. I even cross stitch things I like in movies. My views on cinema could be described as peculiar. My views on the "1001 movies" list as complicated. It happens a lot that I get the feeling it wasn't that necessary to see some particular movies. Sometimes I'm really grateful I saw them. And there are also times when I don't watch any new movies for six months straight. And they keep adding new movies every damn year so I might have to never die to watch them all.

What's the score right now?
606/1245 - That's 639 left to see.
I started this experiment on July 3rd 2009 and the latest update was made on April 19th 2023.

Dances With Wolves (1990)

USA
directed by: Kevin Costner
written by: Michael Blake (+ book)
starring: Kevin Costner, Graham Greene, Rodney A. Grant a Nathan Lee Chasing His Horse
seen on 26th January, 2019

If the film didn't abuse the cliché of "the noble wild west", it could have been really something. Because it has everything in it. But it sure is all blockbustery, kitschy, and white-savior-like numb and dulled. Nevertheless, Graham Greene, Rodney A. Grant and Nathan Lee Chasing His Horse for presidents.

2023: Ok, I retract Nathan Lee Chasing His Horse's nomination.
