† The only two movies i walked out of in 2009 were both at Anthology Film Archive. One Parallel Movie was bailed on after a ten minute shot that was just Rip Torn in a construction elevator talking to himself; Andrei Rublev was fled because of a squabble between me and the person I was seeing it with and it’s four hours long and I’ve seen it before and I really most wanted to see the balloon sequence at the beginning. And sometimes Anthology smells like cat piss. Only sometimes.

†† Only movie that made me cry in 2009

APPENDIX A
My average monthly rent in 2009 was $687. I spent about $0.94 an hour to keep a roof over my head, not withstanding utilities, heat, etc. I saw forty movies in 2009. I don’t want to get too scientific about this, but according to my rough math, it cost me about $5/hour. But that included free heat/AC and entertainment. And cleaning and a bathroom (well, a half-bathroom) and MOVIES.
