Comments on SIFF 2008: Day 15 Recommendations

Choke was awful. I never finished the book, either. I stopped at, I believe it was chapter sixteen, but it was when the nurse took him in the church and if I recall they started going at it. That book was all kinds of suck.

So Brick Lane is coming here later? Neat. I read the book once and was vaguely bummed that I couldn't make any of the screenings. Now, I just have to wait.

Top pics for today are:

it's a great day!

Call Me Troy was fun and informative, but flawed. Informative, but not informative enough. The filmmakers had whole sections of the film taken out for fear of being too about the MCC (and, thus, not getting into schools or universities) yet had a lot of repetitive sound bites.

Still, the information in it almost trumps the lack of style/quality editing.

Choke is sold out, so no point in sending people to go see it :p

@5: Some of our readers have passes, so--unlike in Stranger Suggests, say--I'm occasionally going to list events that are already sold out. Sorry!
