I did warn you what would happen when I started attending the midnight movies. It’s hard to find any time to write when you are in movies from 9:30 AM until 3 AM! (with small breaks of course, I’m not completely insane) I have no idea how the film writers do it!
So this is the final tally of films that I saw. For the most part they were all great with only a couple of exceptions.
- Antichrist – amazing!
- Backyard – really good
- Nymph – good, liked his other films better
- L’Enfer de Henri-Georges Cluzot – amazing!
- Leslie, My Name is Evil – good and fun
- My Tehran for Sale – amazing!
- Fish Tank – good
- I am Not Your Friend – great
- Mall Girls – good
- Face – great
- Rabia – really good
- Reel Injun – really good
- A Brand New Life – great
- Airdoll – great
- The Loved Ones – really good
- Youth in Revolt – really good
- Colony – great
- Bitch Slap – bad
- Vision – pretty, but not for me
- My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done – interesting, have to see it again
- Moloch Tropical – interesting but but not for me
- She, A Chinese – great
- White Material – really good
- The Bad Detective – great
- Valhalla Rising – really good
- Bunny and the Bull – amazing!
- planned for tomorrow am – Whip It!
I am bleary-eyed and exhausted. Can’t wait to be home. I will write more on my festival experiences and thoughts through the weekend.
