Pantys '19: Fave Films, Part One

.
By my count I saw 253 new movies in 2019, which works out to about 7/10ths of a new movie every single day for you Rain Men out there. I don't know if that's high or low because I don't usually keep track of how many movies I watch in a year, I just happen to have that number in front of me. But it seems like a high number! And keep in mind this is not counting all of the pre-2019 movies I also watched, which surely brings that number into the billions. 

Point being I watch movies instead of going outside. Have you been outside lately? I do not recommend it. I mean yes, inside also sucks now, since the internet brings the outside inside with us. But shutting out the horrible wailing sounds of the outside world with a big beautiful glorious brand new baby of a film? Now that's the sweet stuff. That I recommend. But maybe you don't have time for 253 new movies like I did? Well hey what a coincidence, that's just exactly what I'm here for. I'm gonna narrow that gigantic number down to the absolute and finest of the very best ones, according to me. Starting... now.

Didn't remember you reviewing This Is Not Berlin. Excellent! Got to see it at the local gay film festival in February. Fascinating and charismatic.
