I realize the baton has been in my possession for a few weeks now, and I apologize for not posting something sooner. My alternate life as head of a DVD distribution company has been keeping me extremely busy.

Those who know me best know that my tastes in film tend to run towards the downbeat - dysfunctional relationships a specialty. (Hmm....wonder why that is?) On top of that, my DVD collection skews heavily towards the foreign, which raises an interesting question: Would a live-tweet of a non-English language film be possible? Enjoyable? Or would it simply become sensory overload?

Then of course there's the issue about finding a title that enough people are familiar with. For example, I'd love to live-tweet Chinese Roulette, but how many know the film well enough?

I'll wait to hear some responses on the foreign film question, and in the interim think of some titles that are in American.
