Just Saw [Insert Movie Title Here]...

...or how my MFA in screenwriting ruined any chance of enjoying a movie like a normal person. If I apply what I've learned to existing films, would it have made a better film?


SPOILER WARNING: Please be advised, I plan to discuss plot points in detail so if you haven't seen the movie and don't want the surprise ruined, stop here.

VC Filmfest 2006 - May 4 - May 11 - Los Angeles

This weekend begins the VC Filmfest 2006, The Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival. Lots of interesting features and shorts to catch. Most of the films will be shown at the DGA or at the Laemmle Sunset 5 Theater.

Check out the official website (which is a pain to navigate).

I'm pretty much going to live there this weekend. If I see anything interesting, I'll try to steal some time to blog about it.

Here's what I'm planning to see. If you plan on seeing anything, drop me a line and we can meet while I'm mainlining caffeine between showings.

Isaac, is that a cigarette in your mouth? Been meaning to ask.

Hi Enzio. My memory is a little fuzzy from that night. I recall a few stogies so there probably was some cigarette action.
