How on earth do you get to see so many movies? :O

I binged for the month of September, fitting films in to the wee hours of the night. Hardly listened to any music. I probably haven't watched so many films in one month like that in a very long time, say 6 years or so.

afterhours,
do you own Travelling Players? if so, where did you get a hold of it, i cannot find a copy of it anywhere; at least not one for american dvd players.

It is extremely hard to find. The only way I was able to get it was through inter-library loan at my library and on VHS. It is easily one of the greatest films ever made, though only for the patient and very attentive viewer. It boasts the most deftly puzzling narrative I've ever witnessed.
