I have a confession. I love films. Some might say I'm a geek but I'm sure there are others like me, lurking in the shadows, coveting the latest box-set like the one ring to rule them all. We are a secretive breed, perfectly ordinary looking (most of the time), keeping our love of film under wraps. Well, I thought it time to bear hug my film nerd status. I hope you enjoy and please join the debate. Go on, embrace your inner (or outer) film nerd too. You know you want to.
