From an initial shortlist of 48 I have managed to narrow down my Film Festival wish list to 17 movies. I can probably afford to go to five, at best. Feel free to tell me what to go see, cos I have no idea. There's about 150 films in the festival, so I think I'm doing well to cut it back to 17. Why can't they spread them out over the year?
Here's my list (so far)...
Abouna
All or Nothing
Blue Car
Broken Wings
The Crime of Father Amaro
The Cuckoo
Dreaming in Motion
Is the Crown at War with Us?
Japon
Lilya 4-Ever
Love and Diane
Love is a Treasure
Mercano the Martian
Secretary
Suddenly
Tishe!
Uzak
Crap I'm too late, but i should have told you to go see Reverse Psychology last night, because I was in it.
Short films are so weird. In last night's late session of 7 films, 5 would have cost at least $10K, and one had a real cost of at least $50000. Our film cost... well Sam had two pies, and i got a can of V, so about $7.25.
It makes me wonder how people can justify such huge expense for such a... flippancy. I mean it's enjoyable but...
