The Luso World Cinema Blogathon Participants

Still from Manoel de Oliveira’s ANIKI-BÓBÓ

The Luso World Cinema Blogathon starts tomorrow! Below are the participants and their subjects. Each day of the blogathon look for announcements of whose piece has gone live when. Letícia Magalhães of Crítica Retrô hosts days #1 and #2 (November 12 and 13). Please visit her blog or follow her on Twitter for updates. I’ll host days #3 and #4 (November 14 and 15) on Spellbound by Movies, and I’ll be tweeting blog links as well. I can’t wait to read everyone’s posts, and I hope you feel the same!
