Film fest-ivities, halfway through
I love a good film festival. And it's more than just the films, it really brings out a sense of community. One person has been there for pretty much every session, local filmmaker and projectionist extraordinaire Pete Gurbiel. I asked him what he's enjoyed so far and what he's still looking forward to:
I was looking forward to THE LOST THING big time. I've been a fan of Shaun Tan's illustrations since he provided the cover artwork to Lotel's 2000 Album. The execution of the animation was spectacular, and lifted Tan's heady concepts right off the page - massive approval!
Things to look out for are THE LOVED ONES and NIGHT OF THE TRIFFIDS, shows you'll be hard pressed to catch on the big screen any time soon.
What's everyone else looking forward to?
