A film for every day of the year

18th October - Happy Death Day and Happy Death Day 2U (both excellent films spoofing the genre btw, well worth a watch if you like the whole repeated/groundhog day genre and like a spoof film, the sequel was just as good)
 
1 May - 127 Hours (it takes place over several days but that was most likely the day the bloke cut off his own arm with a penknife to free himself so that is probably the pivotal moment of the thing - he had been trapped for a few days before that though)
 
Not going to be able to sleep until every date has an entry :eek: bloodshot eyes
 
2 May - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 (The Battle of Hogwarts)

Great post. But you really should get out more….
 
8th August - Once Upon A Time In Hollywood could be argued that it is less of a significant date because of the alternate reality/timeline thing going on meaning Tate doesn't get murdered, but it still hinges on that real event as a centre point to the setting because the viewer knows that is what happened, even though in this fictional setting of the film it has a different outcome

I checked Citizen Kane for dates and despite all those newspaper front pages filling up the big screen none of them have a date on. They call this the greatest film ever made? In what kind of a world do newspapers not have the date on the front page? You've let yourself down, Mr Wells, and you've let all of us down.
