The film festival programme is out and its looking pretty good. Of course the political nerds like myself will be off to see The Hollow Men movie (in fact I already have tickets to that one) but there are a lot of other gems.
This year I'm going to try and avoid the more 'worthy' films and I'm focussing on sheer entertainment!
So here's the rest of my list:
The Wave - story of a teacher who starts acting like a fascist dictator to better demonstrate how bad Hitler was (chaos ensues).
Let the Right One In - Scandanavian film about a 12 year old vampire - the quote did it for me - "Very smart, very sweet, very sick".
Somers Town - Shane Meadows' follow up to his acclaimed 'This is England'
Be Kind Rewind - looks like a cross between Clerks and Hercules Returns. Its about a video store where they remake all their old stolen/lost movies on home video.
The Savages - Philip Seymour Hoffman stars (say no more)
Bigger, Stronger, Faster* - looks kind of like Super Size Me - but with steroids!
Gonzo: The Life and Work of Hunter S. Thompson - title kind of captures it
Annimation Now - the short annimated film spectacular
Romero's Diary of the Dead - Zombie films rule
I Think We're Alone Now - film about stalkers of 80s pop icon Tiffany (can it possibly get better?)
The King of Kong - doco about a dude who kicks ass at Donkey Kong.
Rock n Roll!
