our office closed early for the pagan holiday so this afternoon i saw my first film at this year's philly film fest. not an auspicious start i'm afraid. in past years i've seen 12-15 films and never disliked more than 2 or 3 and i've never started with a bad film. so those are pretty good odds even with my semi-random film choosing approach. i guess my luck had to run out eventually.
but i got a bunch i want to see tomorrow. one has the word "monkey" in the title. there's never been a bad movie with the word "monkey" in the title. surely i can't lose. (unless i decide not to see it. there are several non-monkey possibilities in competing time slots)
