This is my first challenge I am joining in MDL and I am so so excited to expand my palate! Brb browsing for movies from each country.
2024/01/16
Let's see how far back can we go. The 00s? the 90s? I'm only subscribing to Netflix tho, and my alternate source doesn't have any titles older than 2002. Welp. Hello archive.org, bilibili.tv, dailymotion ?

I've just noticed the country for Virgin Snow is changed from South Korea to Japan. It was technically both, I guess. A mix of both in the cast, crew, and filming location.
