How I stay awake during film screenings:


Kino: Russian Cinema, the most awesome class ever, has screenings every Monday at 8 pm. I love silent movies, but I still tend to get very sleepy during these screenings. But finally I have discovered a SOLUTION to my slumber: lists!

I love listing things. Its the best. It makes me feel like I know things.Here is a list of 50 silent movies I have seen. Well, I counted 50 in my head but couldn't think of them all when I tried transferring the titles to paper. Oh well.

This is a listing game I invented today! It is a variation on a game I play to keep my mind occupied when I work out. The original game is simple, I have to think of a studio era movie star for each letter. But this variation is a little more tricky, as you can see I didn't fill in all the blanks. I challenged myself to list a movie star with a first name that starts with each letter, and a movie star with a last name that starts with each letter. I still can't think of anyone with a Q first name.(Quincy...nope, Quail Man...no) Ooh and I forgot an important rule, double points if you think of a star whose first and last name start with the same letter. Yay For Greta Garbo!
