There are two good options in every slot today, save the early afternoon matinee. Skip Vinicius (Pacific Place at 2 pm) unless you’re a huge fan of the titular musician and start your movies off at…
Pacific Place, 4:30 pm. Kathy Fennessy says the cutesy-sounding German film Grave Decisions is actually “sweet, funny, and occasionally tasteless—much like your favorite pre-teen nephew.” If you haven’t seen it yet, Running on Empty (SIFF Cinema, 4 pm) is even better.
SIFF Cinema, 6:45 pm. David Schmader adores For the Bible Tells Me So, a great doc from Sundance that hasn’t been picked up for distribution.
See it now or see it never. If you saw it over the weekend, go with the Belgian comedy Congorama (Neptune, 6:45 pm), which Brendan Kiley thoroughly enjoyed.
9:30 pm, Harvard Exit. Pay homage to the late Charles Nelson Reilly with this film about his one-man stage show (here’s the New York Times review, performed in 2001. Plus, the South Korean schoolgirl fantasia/sociopolitical commentary Dasepo Naughty Girls, which Bradley Steinbacher couldn’t help but love.

what about "fortune hunters" at the egyptian at 7pm? that's the movie w/ long duck dong. i saw it and let me say AWESOME!
The gentle(wo?)man above is referring to a locally produced short in the Northwest Ties program, which is sold out. I have a screener, but I haven't watched it. I'm a little afraid of Jessica Skerritt. You understand.
Um, ok, but I think Dasepo Naughty Girls is a way better idea.
Dasepo Naughty Girls was the bomb diggity! Unbelievable to me that Korea apparently despised it. As for Long Duk Dong, I love that dude (Gary Watanabe), but I'll stick to watchin' him on netflix. He kicked ass in "Volunteers."
