2014 VIFF Day 1
Oct. 1st, 2014 11:57 amVancouver International Film Festival time again.
Based on an unscientific and statistically insignificant random sample, film is unsurprisingly terrible at women. Also at making movies I like.
( Black Fly, Rekorder, The Fool )
Both Black Fly and Rekorder have, as their last scene, a backstory revelation that is supposed to cause one to Finally Understand the characters' torment and See The Film In A New Light. This lazy O.Henry crap is something newbie writers are warned against, and now I understand why.
