CineQuest - Movie #1
"The Namesake" - I loved it. I love Mira Nair movies, like I said earlier, Monsoon Wedding is one of my favorites ever. She was at the theater tonight and was lovely. I like Monsoon Wedding better, but only because it's an overall happier movie. The Namesake was not depressing, but it had its sad parts. It was about Life, and Love, and Loss, and living and loving while dealing with loss. First person we saw there was Nathan, second person was Jason, and third person was Jim, my old boss. It was very funny. And those pictures were taken last year, yet would have been the same pictures if I had taken them this year. Jason sat in the first row, we sat right behind them. Nathan was "Official Greeter" again. And it wouldn't be Cinequest without technical difficulties. Last year there were really bad sound problems - this year was worse. I don't know if it was the speakers or what, but we all missed a lot of dialogue and it was sad because, especially at the end, we're pretty sure we missed something important. However, Cinequest viewers understand this festival is put on by volunteers and we are more patient and tolerant than most. The noise problems just barely crossed the line at "unacceptable", but there were no riots. Overall, good time was had by all. Tomorrow: "Cortos de Mexico" and Shorts Program #2 "Ties and Expectations". Buffy already got herself grounded, so I'll be attending by myself tomorrow while Spike is in school.
