Slog - Comments on SIFF 2008: Recommendations for Day 4 http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/05/siff_2008_recommendations_for_day_4 Wow, there are lots of equally good alternative schedules today. You could go to the Egyptain for the Ben Kingsley appearances (Elegy with an onstage Q&A at 2 pm, then the still-great Sexy Beast at 6 pm) and stay for the new Patti Smith doc (Patti Smith: Dream of Life, which is being distributed by Palm Pictures and should return to Seattle in late summer or fall, at 9 pm).
