After talking with many people in Serbia for whom English was their second language it became apparent that the main way young people learn English is through music, TV and films.

I have been learning Italian for 4 months. I started with an intensive short course when we arrived in Italy, and have followed this up with audio courses and attempting to use websites like livemocha. It is clear now that I must start watching Italian films.

Thanks to my Italian friends I now have a long "Must-watch" list of quality italian films and those of importance in the Italian contemporary culture.

The website idea is to keep a blog as I work through the list keeping track of my thoughts on each film. I think my partner (Suzy) will help with this task. The plan is to write the blog in Italian so the improvement in our italian language should be apparent!

I'll post a link once it's up and running.
