Cinequest - Day 2
It's almost midnight and I need to get some sleep, but before I do I want to let everyone know that Disfigured is one of the best films I've seen at Cinequest, Ever. It was nothing like what I thought it was going to be, and the audience was completely wowed. To quote one of the viewers, "This is only the second movie of the festival, and I'm not sure how anything else is going to beat this." You can still see it on these two dates, and if you can make it, I definitely recommend it: I took 16 year old Buffy and her male friend, thinking this was going to be a "comedy" (I don't know why I thought that since the description clearly states "drama"). Once it began I thought they were going to be bored to tears - except for around halfway through when the very nekkid sex scene began... I was pretty sure they were going to kill me after that, or at the very least blame me for all their future psychological problems. But at the end, as we left the theater (after Buffy took a photo of me with star Deirdra Edwards), the friend said: "That was a really good movie. It almost got me at the end. I had a little tear. It didn't fall though, I caught myself... but it almost got me." We also saw about ten of the student shorts, and as usual, they are more awesome than the regular shorts. So I recommend those too. I'll write more about all of them tomorrow. Food ate: One tomato mozarella ciabatta sandwich from Starbucks with a small vanilla frapucchino, some popcorn with parmesan garlic powder, and a diet coke. Buffy attracting attention all over the place with her bag again, even getting notice from the manager of the Camera Theaters himself. It really is a cool bag though.

Arrgh, not sure if I can fit it in. Going to see Art of Travel at that time tonight and Autism the Musical on Sunday. D'Oh! In other news: Bittersweet Heart was very good, highly recommend catching that one if you can. Posted by: Morgan at February 29, 2008 8:37 AMPost a comment
