NYFF -- lined up.

Helen Mirren, regal once again. We are all deep admiration (and squee!) for the New York Film Festival, which this year as always displays impeccable taste in bringing all the best in international festival films to the city for what we like to pretend is our personal convenience.

I want very much to see David Lynch's "Inland Empire." The very first film I ever saw at the New York Film Festival was "Mulholland Drive" in 2001, and it had to have been one of the greatest cinematic viewing experiences of my life. I'm not a member of the Film Society of Lincoln Center, so I'll be up bright and early Sunday, Sept. 10 when tix go on sale to the public.

"Triad Election" = "Election 2"

I'm still giggly over "Inland Empire," as well as "Woman on the Beach" and "Syndromes and a Century" and many of the others. And yes, "Election 2" as well -- Tartan Films picked up both "Election" and "Election 2" in May for an eventual theatrical release, and I think it's great that the film's been given the context of a serious and prestigious festival here in the US. Hopefully this will mean it won't get the expected "Here's a violent Hong Kong film!" marketing campaign.

The film Journal of Knud Rasmussen by Zach Kunuk and Norman Cohn (Atarnajuit)will be well worth the wait. Filmed in Igloolik Nunavut it features Greenlandic,Danish and Inuit actors.
A must see for certain!
