Film Movement Movie Club: Film List (Past and Present 2003-2015) Complete, In Order
by Juicy_Kumquat | created - 02 Sep 2015 | updated - 13 Nov 2015 | PublicWhile trying to arrange in order my Film Movement movies, I noticed that some movies are no longer listed on their website http://www.filmmovement.com/filmcatalog/
Movies were missing in certain years (I assume the distribution rights ended). UPDATE: I found that some missing ones are being MOD (Made On Demand) by Amazon now.
I tried to google to find out what the missing films were and no luck. So-called "complete lists" were made too recently and were missing the same films, or they were not in order of release and included many films (although distributed by Film Movement) that were not distributed to the film club members as a part of the one a month movies.
Luckily, I have been a member since the beginning and was able to sort out the movies properly. I made this list for collectors.
These are the movies (past and current), in order of release to film club members. One film a month since Jan., 2003.
This does NOT include any recent movies bought and distributed by Film Movement that are not part of the club membership selection sent to members.
