The Film Emotion Blogathon


The Film Emotion Blogathon


My love of Pixar's Inside Out is documented. It is currently the best film of 2015...so far. So, it's no surprise that I would find myself drawn to this genius idea for a blogathon. Much like the world we create for ourselves, the movies create worlds for us as well, and, in movies, just like in life, we have emotional connection as the driving force.

Philip Seymour Hoffman Blogathon!



I'll start by saying that the death of Philip Seymour Hoffman stands as one of the great tragedies of my movie-loving life. He was an actor of immense skill and passion. One able to transform into any character, make us believe him, and thus effortlessly reminding us that performers can truly transform us.

Last week, a new blogathon made its way to me by way of Wendell at Dell on Movies, a movie blogger tribute to Philip Seymour Hoffman.

It comes from a blog new to me but one I plan to keep up with going forward.

That blog is Epileptic Moondancer. And this is my contribution to the Philip Seymour Hoffman Blogathon! Note that I am going outside of the original rule of choosing one Hoffman role and discussing it. I just can't do that. Hoffman's work is too ingrained in me. I can't choose one. I have to choose many. I promise. I'm not showboating. I'm just in awe and still utterly devastated by the loss of a man so dear to me, a man I only knew through these great performances I hold so dear.

The Five Senses Blogathan


I ran across this blogathon, hosted by Nostra at My Film Views, a while back and had planned on participating. I sort of forgot about it, then it started popping back up as of late on several blogs I follow. So, refreshed memory and all, I decided to jump in.
