Lovely blog post, nice web page design, continue the great work
This festival seems like a lot of fun. It goes without saying that there are obvious benefits to being in Los Angeles when it comes to seeing incredible films. I love attending film festivals like these to get to see things I know won’t come to the theaters where I live. I finally got to see the South African film White Wedding today, as it just came out on dvd. It had been on my radar since it was South Africa’s submission for foreign film in a previous year’s Oscars. I highly recommend it, it manages to retain the feel-good mood of a romantic comedy while still approaching important topics like Apartheid and racial tensions. If you haven’t seen the trailer yet you should go to the film’s website http://www.whiteweddingmovie.com
