The List

Earlier this week Kurt Anderson of Studio 360 talked with Oscar-winning director Stephen Soderbergh about what he's been up to this past year as he prepares to retire from filmmaking.  It appears as if Soderbergh has kept a list, dating from April 12, 2010 through March 23, 2011 of every movie and television show he's watched, along with every book, play and short story he's read. 


The list is incredibly extensive, watching 92 movies in under a year, some of them multiple times.  They include the movies he's working on before retirement, classics like "The Godfather," "Jaws," and "All About Eve," and last year's hits "The Social Network, "Black Swan," and "The Fighter."


I'm not crazy about Soderbergh's work, but I love the idea so I'm totally going to do this.  I've already logged four movies today.
