Five Days, Nine Movies…hopefully eight hours of sleep.

It's Friday night. I've done nine films in five days and I'm ready for a good night's sleep. How in the world does anyone do 45 films in 9 days.

I must say I enjoyed the whole experience. I loved the Q & A with the directors. (A couple of actors made it out too). I liked talking to perfect strangers about what they had seen.

Here's my ranking of the films I saw.

1-Across the Universe. I would pay to see this one again. I find myself breaking out in song all day long.

2-The Jane Austen Book Club. Grab all your girlfriends and have a night out. There's something in this for everyone.

3-Chrysalis. A French Sci-Fi. You might only be able to get this one on zip.ca. But worth the rental.

4-Normal. A great Canadian film. All about loss. Very sad great acting. And Kevin Zegers.

5-Honeydrippers. Slow but amazing acting.

6-Buddha Collapsing in Shame. I great film. Subtle. The children are adorable.

7-Silk. Sorry….Lost in Translation. There's almost zero tension in two hours. Ms. Knightly does nothing but look great even when she was dying. Michael Pitt is dull as dishwater. Alfred Molina is the one bright note.

8-Christopher Columbus. Awful. Don't even think of seeing this one. It took 70 minutes what could be said in 10. I slept through half.

Glad it's over but I'm going back next year.
