There seemed to be a good deal of agreement that I needed to see one particular film above the others. But let’s hit up the second and third place entries. In second was The Man from Laramie followed very closely by a tie for third between Touch of Evil and 2010’s True Grit. Once again, John Ford gets a film into my queue (along with John Wayne) in The Quiet Man, which has been added to my queue. I will receive it next week to be watched that subsequent weekend (or watched this weekend if I have time) and reviewed in The Morning After to be posted on January 3.

Here’s the deal: every week, I will be calling for suggestions of films to be added to my Netflix queue. Each person makes one suggestion and one alternate (in case I have seen one of your suggestions). The next week, when I call for new suggestions, we begin a one-week voting period to select the film to be placed immediately into my Netflix queue to be reviewed the weekend after (because I’ll already have my Netflix queue selections for the coming weekend). Then, you’ll find out what I thought in my weekly Morning After feature on Monday morning.

I’m also going to throw in a couple of selections I haven’t seen from Oscar history. To select the years from which I’ll contribute, I will randomly select two years and then look at the Best Picture race and choose a film there I have not yet seen.

To help decide what to pick, here is a list of what I’ve seen (or at least that I have personally logged).

Here’s what you need to post today (and through next Wednesday):

1. Below, please provide your suggestions to add to my Netflix queue.
