I've always thought if she is the one who designs the live show, she would make a fantastic filmmaker -- but an experimental, conceptual filmmaker -- not some traditional narrative feature film director hocus pocus.
Because the woman nows who and whom to hire, I may hate the bitch to the 10th level, but shes great at business decisions and knows how to work up and coming talent, if its in concert mode, or producing mode, she knows how to steal. That being said, I don't think she has ever had an original thought in her faux british head. This will be a movie shot frame to frame of other works, or a complete joke. as always I'm wishing for the latter. The bit in bold is so true. I've been saying the same thing for years. “The man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them, inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.”

I've served on screening committees for several film festivals, including a major international one...and for the most part, what gets shown is subject to extreme competition and has to have "some merit" somewhere or it could never survive the process. Of course, a large part of it is subjective, but the judges have to justify their decisions on some level. Oh, I'm not talking about "less successful" or "not to everyone's tastes", I'm talking about pure, unadulterated swill. And there's a lot of that at film fests, too. So YOU'RE the one responsible for allowing this one to pass? 
[Edited 12/29/07 9:46am] oh get over it, it takes blood sweat and tears and a hell of a lot of money and time to make a film, even the most crappy one. Filmmakers deserve to screen at least once, you don't have to buy a ticket. | |
