Weekly Movie Night with Jesse - 2024

49 movies  

My noted good friend, <a href="https://letterboxd.com/worldonwire/">Jesse</a>, and I typically get together once a week to watch a movie.

He started to keep a running log of what we watched this year, and because I want to be as cool as he is, I am now too also as well.
