AUTUMN BREAK? No, not a film title, just notice of a week’s hiatus. But that’s no reason to stop hunting for great video on MAKSQUIBS CINEMATHEQUE. Over 6000 posts to scroll thru, more than a thousand come Recommended, thousands more barely shy of the mark. (I-Phoners can switch to the Main Site to view all our Labels. Scroll to the bottom of the screen for a link. Our Search Box also on the Main Site. Alas, the big Search Engines only index a fraction of our Posts/Titles.
Meanwhile, here’s a few titles with LINKS to the full Write-Up, two to a category, to get you thru the week. Most, not all, Recommended, a few flawed but fascinating. Mostly older ones you probably haven’t heard of. Or if you have, probably not seen. Even a few downright famous titles; but have you seen them? Like the last two; well-known/widely-acclaimed classics, but seen by shockingly few Stateside.
