As many of you know from my previous posts, Victoria is not a terrific city for film. Normally, we'll get art films and foreign stuff (aka the stuff I REALLY want to see) very late, and the big blockbuster product churning out really fast.
Every year, though, they churn out a ten day festival showcasing....well, what prints they can grab. To be fair, there are some interesting films here. I am participating for the first time in this festival, and would really appreciate your comments on any films I should see (Note that I can only attend screenings on Friday night, Saturday and Sunday, but would still like to hear any input)
Full list with details and screening times are available HERE.
I am for SURE seeing:
Storytelling by Todd Solondz
Century Hotel by David Weaver
Lunch With Charles by
The Business of Fancydancing by Sherman Alexie (I believe he's attending both screenings)
If I like what I experience with the festival over the next two weeks, I may consider checking out the Vancouver fest in the fall. Wish me luck!
