My daily #SFFILMFestival blog post today is on Laura Huertas Millán's The Labyrinth, part of the New Visions Golden Gate Award competition. I talk about the film, the program, & how none of the shorts in this particular competition won a prize this year.
Here's my #SFFILMfestival daily post, mostly about the Mel Novikoff Award presentation to BBC Arena. 35mm print of Wisconsin Death Trip at @BAMPFA this afternoon!
My daily #SFFILMfestival post highlight's tonight's showing of Midnight Cowboy, and talks a bit about silent film presentations at the festival as well.
Asako I & II (Hamaguchi 18) Found it! My favorite feature film of #SFFILMFestival. Formally adroit, an emotional rollercoaster & kept me guessing to the end; even the one inevitable plot turn didn't play out as I expected.
Front row, just off-center for David Hegarty’s always-wonderful pre-movie organ concert. #SFFILMFestival
My #SFFILMFestival Day 6 blog post, talking about tonight's @Castro_Theatre tribute to @oddballfilms. If you read just one of my @SFFILM blog posts, this is probably the one
It’s day 4 of the #SFFILMFestival. Here’s my daily blog preview, focusing on Wayne Wang’s appearance at @Dolby Cinema
My #SFFilmFestival Day 3 blog post discusses Nathaniel Dorsky's Avraham, one of 4 of his 16mm works screening @SFMOMA tonight
My #SFFILMFestival Day 2 blog post is about television at a film festival. Barry screens 6PM at the @VictoriaTheatr
Had a wonderful #SFFilmFestival this year. Saw 21 feature-lengths & 38 shorts, from (conservatively) 19 countries. Most of 'em good or great
Before seeing @iamsrk at the @Castro_Theatre tonight, I'm seeing this Chinese ghost drama at @BAMPFA #SFFILMFestival
Hard to believe I'm gonna be seeing a set of Jerome Hiler 16mm films on the @Castro_Theatre's massive screen tonight. #SFFILMFestival
Willing to forego final #SFFILMFestival showings of Yourself & Yours/The Unknown Girl? I've an extra ticket to this:
Golden Exits (A. Perry 17) Hard dislike. Excellent actors giving mostly-dull speeches. Director still grasping for a movie. #SFFILMfestival
Nocturama (Bonello 16) Something special; still figuring out just what because it hits heavy. Arresting from start to finish #SFFILMfestival
The Next Skin (Campo & Lacuesta 16) Seemingly rote Pyreneeian amnesia drama turns more interesting in the last "reel" or 2 #SFFILMfestival
Have I ever been as excited about digtially-presented "old movies" as Tom Luddy's #SFFILMFestival presentation Sun?
My #SFFILMFestival plans today: Catalonian mystery Next Skin, Bertrand Bonello's controversial Nocturama & Alex Ross Perry's Golden Exits
The Death of Louis XIV (Serra 16) Magnificently-coiffed Jean-Pierre Léaud falls into the Sun King place for 2 reverent hours #SFFILMFestival
Birth of a Nation (Jem Cohen 17) Ground-level companion to depopulated inauguration aerials an ideal start to 1st Trump-era #SFFILMFestival.
