Film Fest News

[przed]

Well, we drew a box number about three quarters of the way back in the film fest lottery. Which turned out to be good news for me, and not-so-good news for the Sweetie. (There were only two films he had his heart set on, and he didn't get either one.)

But as further proof that he is the best Sweetie in the world, this morning he managed to snag me a ticket for the first screening of Appaloosa. Which means I'll be seeing Viggo Mortensen not once, but twice this fest. (With any luck, his bestest boyfriend, David Cronenberg, will be at one of the screenings and they can act all cute together.)

I've actually ended up with tickets to both screenings of Good, the other film Viggo has in the fest, but I'm thinkin' I'll only go to one of them.

Just for fun, here's a pic of Viggo, complete with crazy Appaloosa facial hair



With any luck, I'll have time to put up my usual capsule reviews.

Don and I both take the week off. We'll see stuff during the day, and alternate weekends and evenings so there's someone always home with Ros. Though we did get babysitting so we can both go to the final midnight screening. It's a crazy looking Thai martial arts film, so we both had to go.

20 is more than last year's 8, but no where near my record year of 36. (Admittedly, my brain was leaking out of my ears by the end of that fest and I swore never to see more than 30 a fest again.)

Good idea. I hear all that gray matter stains. ;-)
