Anya ,'Showtime'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Go Vonnie! I salute you! And your eyeballs. That's some serious film fest commitment.
I had a friend who organized her whole year's vacation around the SF Film Fest (back when it was more of a thing than it has been of recent years). Dag, they had a great programmer through the 80s and 90s.
Dude, Vonnie, you are a monster. respect!
That is one helluva list. I really want to see (and probably eventually will, but not all at once!) about 90% of it.
Go Vonnie.
Every year I say I'm going to go to TIFF and it passes me by every year.
Go Vonnie! Worth the eyestrain no doubt.
Thanks, all! It's a beast of a festival. There were several other films I wanted to see that I couldn't fit into my schedule, but overall, I am psyched with the ones I got. Will report back on the films periodically!
Yes! Take notes.
ACKSHUALLY I think it's great and kinda progressive that POC can have a fluffy rom-com movie with no particular deeper meaning. White people been having meaningless rom-coms forEVER
I felt the same way about Love, Simon -- a totally fluffy teen love story, no big whoop. But gay! Yay!
DH has been using some of our vacation wifi to plan his TIFF schedule (which is insane as always) - maybe you'll cross paths!
