The Bill Paxton Project

I was, and remain, a huge fan of the late actor Bill Paxton. I saw my first films starring him in the mid-80’s, and followed his work throughout the rest of his life. I used to collect his films, but got away from doing so about 15 years ago, when I started raising kids. Recently, I started hunting down films missing from my collection, and decided to write up reviews of every single film appearance. This page will host the reviews as I write them.
