A weekend
Made it through another weekend. Friday was the closing for re-financing my house. It went well enough. New mortgage has a lower interest rate then the last one, but now I've got 10 years left instead of 2-3. Ah well, can't be helped.
Did some exchequer work on Saturday morning and then went into the city for the film festival.
Saturday's movies:
Ceremony
A sad, romantic comedy. Enjoyable but not memorable. 3/5
Stake Land
Good vampire film which begins in Pottstown with many local sites used. 4/5
Sunday's movies:
Endhiran (aka: Robot)
Crazy Bollywood (complete with several musical dance numbers) sf film about a robot who gets emotions. 4/5
My Joy
Very slow paced Russian film that didn't really deliver what I hoped for. I was looking for dark and weird, and got depressed and confused. 2/5
Womb
Mentally disturbing at times (as one might expect when you clone your dead lover and raise him as your child...) but very good. 4/5
The Troll Hunter
Great "found video" movie about hunting trolls in the wilds (and not so wilds) of Norway. A good deal more humor then I expected. 5/5
I learned that four movies was too much for one day (though Robot being 2.5 hours and My Joy being what it was probably contributed a lot.)
Tonight I've got two that should be pretty good (Lapland Odyssey & Fire of Conscience)
