The Chicago International Film Festival kicks off tomorrow!
Truly, the lineup of films is simply mind-boggling. I sat down with the printed schedule (a pull-out from last Sunday’s NYT) and it took hours to read all the descriptions and to figure out which films I might wanna see. The film Short Bus has a lot of buzz, which I’m sure has nothing to do with the real-sex straight and gay orgy scenes.
I’m leaning towards a few of the documentaries, and there are a few sci-fi-ish films that sound intriguing (Let’s face it, there are only so many coming-of-age stories any one person can stomach, no matter what language they are filmed in. Unless of course it’s a coming-of-age story about one girl’s erotic journey from Milan to Minsk…).
Which films are on your “must see” list?
