Slog - Comments on SIFF 2008: Day 13 Recommendations http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/06/siff_2008_day_13_recommendations If you're a John Waters groupie, you've already taken off work to see him introduce the matinee of Cecil B. DeMented (4:30 pm at the Egyptian) and have tickets lined up to see him speechify at Benaroya Hall tonight. (Who cares about Hillary Clinton, anyway?) If not so much, here's what's on: In the matinee slot, we reommend the gloomy and wonderful Moby Dick prequel Captain Ahab (4:30 pm at SIFF Cinema), starring Denis Lavant of Beau Travail and Tuvalu. Next, you might like to stick around for a meditation on Christopher Columbus by the 98-year-old filmmaker Manoel de Oliveira:...

And if you haven't bought a ticket to the Benaroya event yet but have purchased your Cecil B. DeMented ticket, you can use it to get $10 off at the door at Benaroya tonight.

Demented, Mirageman, and a far superior (5 out of 5 by a friend) film Captain Abu Raed.

I don't recommend Captain Ahab, but the first half is wonderful.

I've heard good things about Mr. Big.

See it before it's gone!

P.S. I wish John Waters was my dad.
