A Reel Birthday

This month marks the 3rd anniversary of Reel Speak.
 

Reel Speak was created on the foundation of a love for the movies; a torrid and heated love affair which began in a darkened theatre in the spring or summer of 1977. In 2010, this Blogger decided to share that passion for film with friends, family, fellow-moviegoers, newcomers, and whoever else happened to come along. Sharing that passion has always been a driving force behind Reel Speak's creed of Movies, Opinions, Education. If you are reading this, then consider yourself a part of this Blog's success.

Although somewhat self-serving, the third birthday of this Blog seemed like the perfect time to share this Blogger’s reasons for loving the movies; all 20 of them:
