It's 2012. And I'm far too behind in my quest to finish these by the end of 2011. So, what does a wannabe-film-blogger do? He gives himself an extension. This will be done in 2012, folks. Believe you me.
So 1971 - what did you give us cinematically? But, less importantly (but no less interestingly), what happened in 1971 that had nothing to do with films? Shall we?
- Idi Amin becomes president of Uganda. I don't have anything funny to say about that. Wait ... The Last King od Scotland. That'll do.
- Rolls-Royce goes bankrupt. The CEO is forced to drive a Cortina.
- UK and Ireland goes through decimilisation. People are confused.
- Something important happens in Malaysia.
- Democratic Republic of Congo is renamed Zaire, which will revert back to its former name after a few decades. Pointless, really.
