The Boston Fantastic Film Festival schedule is out. It's what you might call slightly heavy on the horror; they're also showing The Muppet Movie. Intriguing contrast -- since they showed Five Children and It last year, I'm assuming there's a tradition of having a children's movie.

Hm. Thursday night looks good, with Creep and the inevitable Miike. Friday, likewise, for Marebito and R-Point. More the latter. I could miss Friday night without shedding too many tears.

Saturday has nothing I'm dying to see but Dark Hours, although I quite wanna see that. Reeker? Maybe. And then Sunday... I keep going back and forth on Three: Extremes. I was chatting about it with my sweetie, and the truth is, I just don't dig Chan-wook Park that much. I dunno. If Miike expands his segment (Fruit Park expanded his), I'd see that.

It's a pity we're not getting more non-horror this year, but it hasn't been a great year for that. Night Watch would be nice, as would some Hong Kong action, but the BFFF hasn't ever been oriented towards Asian action flicks so I can't fault them there. And this is a nice festival all in all.

Three Extremes got really good reviews from Montreal.

Yeah, but everyone except me liked Oldboy, too.

Congratulations on having a sweetie, btw. :)

Thanks!

I was gonna say the same...when do we get to meet her? Or you, for that matter? Don't forget, Jewish Christmas is only a few short months away...

[bryant]

When she comes out to visit next, I expect. :)

Ah, I see...long distance, then? I take it you're still local, though, no? Hard to tell lately... ;) (Subtle, ain't I?)

I'll be up in January, I think. But, before I get to visit Boston, I get to subject him to the beauty that is Dayton, Ohio. Which I'm leaving. Soon, hopefully. Soooon.

Well, it will be good to meet you - plus, it will give us all an excuse to force Bryant to show his face around town! :)
