1. Bold the ones you have watched.
2. Italicize the ones you love, and will watch over and over.

*I'm not using depressing as a bad thing, just a reason for why some most excellent fiilms haven't made the "watch again and again" list.  Similarly films I've not heard much about may not be struck through where they might otherwise be if I knew what they were about...
