1001 Films was created to keep track on the films I am watching since watch up to 30-40 films in a month, I will be posting short insights on the films without giving away much to allow room for discovery.
Unlike the rest of the world, in the US the cinema business has a strict structure that falls into three seasons which keeps changing slowly but surely.
Between January and May is the award season of overflow or failed expectations, not that films are bad but it failed to impress the studios to launch them in the summer or award season.
The Blockbuster season, the most important season for the business with the biggest budgets ever spent on a film starts with Memorial Day (Last Monday in May) and ends with Labor Day (First Monday in September).
The Award season starts in September until the end of December which allows the studios and talent to get prestige. Prestige is important to lure talent and recognition. Without prestige the studios have to dig deeper into their pockets to attract talent.
The reason the seasons exists is that everything in Hollywood calculated down to a science and has been working and will be modified when it deems it necessary.
Anyway the award season is on and the field is wide open so far. Like every year it seems a strong year but it remains to be seen...
