Hello CineTV
Last week we reached out to you all for you to share your favorite mystery film and you guys responded swimmingly to our request! We had some phenomenal entries into last week's contest and picking a winner was an absolutely difficult chore to say the least. I think there are so many sub-genres that fit into the mystery category that it made for an abundance of excellent films to choose from when putting for your reasons for them being better than all others. Even though it was an extremely difficult task, we narrowed down to our following winners:
First Place
@nbarrios67 come out of the box swinging for the fences and captured first place this week with his passionate plea for the classic Murder by Death to be considered the best mystery of all time and I have to say after reading his post, I may just have to agree!
Second place
Second place was seized by one of our past winners, @neiraurdaneta, and her expertly written submission for the contest to try to sway us that The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo should be crowned as the greatest mystery of film and cinema. He impassioned post was definitely grounds for awarding her second place this week.
Third place
Third place was secured by a new author, to me that is, as well as an unfamiliar movie to me. Now I can add it to my list of "must sees" and that is another reason I adore this competition so very much. You can read her post touting the excellence of House Hunting HERE. Third place is awarded to @pialejoana
Congrats!
225 CINE COINS and 100 Ecency Points will be transferred to the winners.
Now if anyone disagrees with our choices then please tag us in a comment on this post!
And let's move on to the new contest!
Your Favorite Vacation / Getaway Movie
Write about Your Favorite Vacation / Getaway Movie
This is such a fitting topic for the current contest as our amazing contest manager, @caulderfreeman is currently on vacation and I, @papacrusher, just got back from a quick trip to the coast with my amazing wife. Now, I can confidently say that my little trip was definitely not fit to make a movie about, BUUUUUTTT based on a picture or two I saw of Caulder's, his could be made into an epic saga of adventure and exploration! lolol Since I am still fresh off my wonderful trip and Caulder is still full steam loving his, we thought it would be appropriate for you to share your favorite vacation/getaway movie. I'm sure we all have that favorite movie that reminds us of exotic far-flung locales that we desperately desire to visit or, if you're like me, an amazing documentary that is so well composed and framed that you long so deeply to visit where it was shot. The sky is the limit and here is your chance to vicariously visit anywhere your heart desires, through sharing with us your favorite vacation/getaway movie!
