So what's my prize?
I'm hoping for a bowlful of chocolate-covered Brussels sprouts.
Or the 32-DVD set of the Complete Works of Alfred Hitchcock.
Though I'd settle for a signed copy of Limahl's Greatest Hits.
It's been a pleasure fightin' you.
How's this for next month's topic:
Resolved: Yasujiro Ozu's use of mise en scene in the early 1950s was as much an aesthetic response to innovations in color cinematography in the work of Sergei Eisenstein as it was a reaction to the encroaching tides of Western colonialism in post-war Japan.
I'd like to see you argue against that one.
