i figured i'd spare myself some trouble if i gave up on early screenings
after work, but it was still a mess trying to make it from milpitas to
san francisco by nine. maybe if i'd managed a couple weeks off before
the festival, i might have been up to dealing with it.
too bad they can't bring back peter scarlet and rachael rosen. i don't
mind the new programmers, but the energy's a bit thin, and i'm not bringing
as much as i'd like.
i saw a lot less than usual. i didn't take any days off, skipped the
opening and closing nights, and i took time off on the weekends. i stayed
away from that buzz where i start wondering which film was which and where
am i, am i ever going home.
