UPDATES

Okay, so the final episode of the Soprano's this season was a bit of a disappointment...a few good moments, but not even close to the ummph of the last couple that I caught up with the nights before.

I saw two Film Festival movies tonight - a chilean called Los Debutantes which ended up being a half soap opera, part porno, and part gangsta coming of age movie. If that sounds bad, it was.

Nina's Tragedies was an Israeli film with not much of a high concept or plot line, but was a really great character and performance driven film. I felt like I missed something with respect to the Iraeli-ness of the film, I'll have to consult my Israeli friends, but overall, a small, nice film.

There are some independent and/or foreign movies I watch and I'm like, "This is why hollywood wouldn't fund this movie because it's boring and shitty." Others I see and I'm amazed how someone does something so good for so little. I feel like I saw both of those tonight - Los Debutantes was pretty poor and Nina's was really good.

To bed...
