Assignment #114

Movies

Movies have to be THE art form of the 20th and probably the 21st Century. Like we used to (and still do) share our literary experiences with each other (Harry Potter). It’s more common to talk about Star Wars or the latest Spiderman movie.

Here are four websites that between them give all the info you could want to know about movies.

Chasing The Frog
