1998 in Film

1998 was the year it happened. The American Film Institute came out with their top 100 list and prompted me to do something I had been thinking of for years. In high school I had a classmate who kept a notebook where he reviewed every single movie he ever saw. Now that computers were everywhere, I decided to do the same thing, only on a spread sheet. Fourteen years and over 1,000 movies later, it is still going. That being said, 1998 was not a strong year. Either I was just getting going and didn’t see enough, or the year was weak.
