Well I think the theme of this year’s films was dishonest love. A few prostitute dramas and a few gold-diggers thrown in for good measure.

Thankfully I’ve found a new DVD site or my lost list would be a lot longer.

There was a pretty broad range of films this year. Big war epics, prison riots, and just simple dramas. My longest film list so far and it really seemed to drag on. Not my favourite collection so far.

Favourite – The Love Parade. Absolutely brilliant musical, I’ve been recommending to everyone!

Least Favourite – Disraeli. A hard choice because I struggled with so many this year.

Only a couple of films really stood out for one reason or another, but Love Parade is certainly the only one I’d watch again.

1929/30 – Lost Films

Another three films missing in action.

Condemned (1929) – Not available. It goes on the list. I plan to sporadically look for my ‘lost’ films just in case.

The Green Goddess (1930) – Not available. Every search I made just kept providing me with the film Tarzan and the Green Goddess. I highly doubt that will be on the Oscar list but I desperately want to see it. If only to satisfy my curiosity – surely it can’t be a film about the king of the jungle and the reserve firetrucks?!

The Rogue Song (1930) – A lost film which I’m not holding out much hope for.
