Interview with Neil White aka @everyfilmin2011

Today we’ve interviewed a man called Neil White who has planned to watch every film released in 2011, and posts all the reviews on his blog, also linking them to his Twitter page (now a dead link). I thought *I* was a film buff, but even I couldn’t watch this many films!

Q1. Who are you?

A. Neil White, 48, deputy editor of the Derby Telegraph, married, father-of-two, big film fan, bigger Coventry City fan.

Q2. What gave you the idea to watch and review every film released in 2011?

A. Kids are now grown up so needed a challenge. My passions include writing and films and I’m a bit of a list fiend. Also, I wanted to do something that nobody else was. Hey presto!

Q3. How long have you been a film buff?

A. Got an Unlimited Cineworld pass in 2007 so, serious, since then.

Q4. What is your favourite film of all time and why?

A. It’s A Wonderful Life. Never fails to stir emotions within me. We’ve got its poster at the top of our stairs. I watch the movie every Christmas.

Q5. Which film have you most enjoyed watching, in 2011, which you didn’t think you would?

A. TT 3D Closer To The Edge. I loathe motorbikes, but this was funny and scarey. A brilliant insight into the world of TT racing. A fabulous film.

Q6. Which is the worst film you’ve seen all year?

A. Accursed Blood. It looks like a bad media studies students’ movie.

Q7. Which film, being released between now and Christmas, are you most looking forward to?

A. Super 8 – only two days to wait!

Q8. Do you have a favourite director/actor?

A. Scorsese is consistently brilliant. Toss up between Johnny Depp and Michael Fassbender.

Q9. Finally, will we be seeing you rename your twitter feed to @everyfilmin2012 from January? 🙂

A. Will I watch everyfilmin2012? That’s the $64,000 question. Will my wife let me? Watch this space…
