Another year, another film festival. Just one movie shy of my record number of movies seen during a festival (23).
Best movie: Daytime Drinking (and funniest..)
Best FeelGood movie: Pranzo di Ferragosto
Most Intense movie: Bronson
Most Disappointing movie: Ecce Momo!
Have a look at the rest of my ratings here.
Here’s the top three of the Audience Award for the 2009 Festival:
| # | Film | Score |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Slumdog Millionaire (surprise, surprise) | 4.764 |
| 2 | Troubled Water | 4.585 |
| 3 | Maman est chez le coiffeur | 4.525 |
Oh, check out the list of the Audience Awards for this years festival. I’ve got just one movie in the top ten, good enough.
Have a look at some of the pics I made of the festival; counting down the days for next year!












He Frenchy, long time no hear. Did you like Slumdog Millionaire? Is it the movie that really was the best for an Oscar reward? I was wondering because I was not really enthousiastic after looking the trailer.
Wooo, that sure was a long sleep you took after the festival… Glad the Fracas is back!
Hiya Jogy, yeah, I took my time to finish the festival blogging, heheh..
ehm.. didn’t see Slumdog. I decided I’d watch it after the festival. The amount of attention and praise the movie got, kinda turned me off, so I’m not sure if I’ll be going to see it soon..
I think it’ll be a nice movie, but probably not worthy of all the buzz/hype and number of Oscars. Don’t mind being wrong on that point, btw..
Heheh..
ForTo those who wait, Evelyn..My feet were getting a little bit tired, waiting for you to bring dem cows home, Friar Frenchy…
Heheh..
