Movie Mania!

Well, Chica Cherry has gone to Mexico for our cousin's wedding so I had to work the San Francisco International Film Festival all by myself. Actually, they have plenty of volunteers. They get quite a unique crowd and Gina, the volunteer coordinator, does a terrific job. So this week, CC and I will see five fabulous movies in two days.

On May 7th, we see --
Vasermil: An Israeli film about teens on a soccer team.
La Zona: A Mexican Movie. Viva Mexico!!

On May 8th --
American Teen: It's a documentary a la breakfast club.
Glasses: My personal favorite. It has a dance scene so I am really excited to see it.
The Secret Life of Grain: It is a French movie and I love France.

This year we'll only have seen 7 movies which is quite a let down from previous years but sometimes that happens. We just have to make do and pray we get the right ones. With so few movies to see you really don't want to get stuck watching a bummer film.

There are plenty of movies I wish I could have seen this year like the Danish film, "Just Like Home" and "Secret". Hopefully, they will get picked up for distribution.
