My esteemed blogging colleague Venoms5 over at Cool Ass Cinema (easily one of the best film blogs around) generously bestowed this award upon The Celluloid Highway So I only thought it is right and proper to thank him and continue the charitable impulse by passing it on to those blogs who I am currently enjoying and admiring. The rules for claiming this award are simple; one must list ten things they enjoy and list ten deserving blogs.
10 things that bring me joy
01 Ice cream (especially raspberry ripple)
02 Flood, famine, pestilence...and plague (thats four things, but they are all kinda inter-related)
03 Klaus Kinski (very similar to the above actually, if you believe Werner Herzog)
04 The continual failure of the England football team
05 A really creepy and well written horror/ghost story in winter time.
06 Beer or cider or lager or whiskey or rum or vodka or......
07 The films of Rutger Hauer (even 'Bone Daddy' and 'Blast!')
08 Nuns
09 A nice restaurant, with an excellent menu, moody and romantic lighting...and then the mother of all arguments.
10 Those who follow my blog - such charming, intelligent and discerning people.

Wow, thanks, Shaun, I'm terribly flattered. Love your joyous list, particularly Klaus Kinski and nuns and the fact they need no further explantation. Just awesome!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Shaun, you deserve the award. One of the aspects of your writing that I really appreciate is some of the genuine insight that you put into some of the older films. Thank you very much, also, for passing this award to me. I am very flattered.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments - you're all deserving of recognition and its great to know that some of my doodlings are being read by enthusiastic and knowledgeable people. It makes it even more worthwhile.

ReplyDeleteHey, thanks for passing this award my way - much appreciated!
ReplyDeleteI've just been enjoying a happy week of whisky and weird tales myself, so I hear ya on items 5 and 6.
No problem Ben - weird tales and whiskey (as long as its malt whiskey) seems like a utopian way to spend a week.
