It's that time again Sydney Film Festival. This time I have switched my handicap from being 8 months pregnant to working and having a 10 and a half month old! Lack of sleep is going to be a challenge.
I am trying to see a good proportion of my subscription this year. I am hoping a well timed rest day or two will be restorative. Items in brackets are films in my subscription I am missing.
So the plan
The Act of Killing
The Way Way Back
Wadjda
(Stoker - not seeing)
The Spirit of '45 - directed by Ken Loach
Gloria
The Rocket
Before Midnight - Richard Linklater revisits Jesse and Celine (yay!!)
Grigris
Midnight's Children
Broken Circle Breakdown
Prince Avalanche
For Those in Peril
Tenderness
Child's Pose
(Lovelace)
(Monsoon Shootout)
(Blancanieves)
(Oh Boy)
(Mood Indigo)
Borgman
The Look of Love
Stories We Tell
Frances Ha
Upstream Colour
Breathe In
Only God Forgives
The Past
Betrayal
Thanks For Sharing
So 24 of the 30 available in the subscription. Once upon a time totally achievable for me. Now potentially ridiculously ambitious.
Watch this space!
