Mark Kermode's Secrets Of Cinema - 2018 - 7/10
Five part documentary of the formulae used in select genres.
RomCom - Heist - Coming Of Age - SciFi - Horror
Kermode explores character types, plot crutches, mold breakers.
Aside from the "coming of age" section, I had viewed the vast majority of movies discussed.
Yes, this includes romcom.
I imagine most reading at
TLO will have seen the bulk of SciFi and Horror titles mentioned. From the Silent era to the present.
There were a few titles that had flown under my radar that I may seek out.
Good introductory doc.
