Ever realise, the best films are the most forgotten?

Totaly agree but it often seems as if people are too distracting with weakly plotted,cliched and over budgeted films.
To further your point I think some people see films as just something that will entertain them and not teach or help nurture deeper thinking.

One thing that I hate is when I well made film is considerd boring just because it hasn't been made by a big studio. This is often foolishly twinned with the idea that the film will be inferior.

All I can advise is hold the films that are dear to you close and try and show your friends or family maybe you might find someone who will aprciate the work.

It happened when I shown my friend Threads for the first time and now he is passing it on to others.

I'm not so sure about that. However, with animated films that certainly does seem to be the case.

Absolutely agree.

'Threads' is another example of a film, that in my opinion, should be seen by all but probably hasn't. The characters of both these film are meant to be representational of the audience; what happens in the film is meant to be something that could happen to anyone at any time. Unlike most dramas, Threads, (and to some extent When the Wind Blows) do not try to pretend that the horror of nuclear war is something that always happens to someone else. The point of each film is in driving home the fact this could happen to anyone at anytime.

It's always the case with me that the films I love most are the ones most others have never heard of. I'm always seeking out obscurities, and many of them are justifiably obscure, but many – like this one – are criminally overlooked treasures.
