favorite quote: Not so much a quote as an exchange between Frodo and Gandalf (you know the one):
Frodo: "I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened."
Gandalf: "So do all who live to see such times but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."

i was interested in learning more about slavic cinema since we didn’t go over any in my intro to int’l film class in college. we also weirdly didn’t go over any films from mexico (i mean, i’ve seen pan’s labyrinth, but that seems like an odd oversight for a country we share a continent with), india, or anything at all from anywhere in africa. i did a little looking at lists of ~ best films ~ but i’ll always take recs, too
