Sundace Line-up Announced

The “old” year isn’t closed yet but we’re about to jump into a new cycle of film viewing and Sundance has announced their 2009 line-up of films, a handful of which we’ll get to see in the new year with a peppering of a few more that will likely end up on some shelf somewhere. My first thought checking out the list is that there’s nothing all that outstanding in the dramatic competitions though there are some great sounding documentaries. A few that did catch my attention: John Hindman’s Arl

It Seems About Right

The hysteria that is our national election process is over now.  The evil villain has been ousted from the White House and his McClone was not his successor. No longer is there daily doom and despair on the daily news. It is all just peachy now that a young and ambitious man will be the next president. The big plus is that he and NOLA’s Mayor Nagin have not only a chocolate city but a chocolate White House as well. How fuckin’ sweet. Problem is the rosy tint we see on the horizon isn’t a beaut
