...battle with their own fears and struggle with the obstacles of their own phantasmagoric condition" http://www.sonarchicago.com/en/sonarcinema.php You gotta love that photo of the guy in the bedsheet with holes for eyes, as he sits fishing by a lake, now that is spookier than a Halloween cake

I giggled when I saw that photo, then snorted derisively as I read the ridiculously pretentious description, but resumed giggling when I watched the clip. I am hoping to make it to as many items in the program as my tangled schedule today will allow and promise to report back if in fact "Finisterra" is the unconventional masterpiece it purports to be — or if it is simply the best laugh I've had in weeks!

I'm looking forward to your Chicago Cultural Center report, and the customary photos of the event, and in particular the one of you observing the proceedings whilst wearing your Samadhisound baseball cap

I want to know about that mad film now too! [/b]Sorry to disappoint you, gentlemen. I have no reviews and no photos (nor do I yet have a Samadhisound cap). I didn't make it to a single item on the program, as I was stuck in the office (on a SATURDAY!) until nearly 10 PM.  But I promise to keep an eye out and see if the ghosty Spanish film makes its way into the theatres anytime soon. We've got the Chicago International Film Festival coming up in about a month — perhaps it will be a contender for the top prize.

You should have given your boss an amplified gesture, and shouted out that we cannot live by bread alone, we need our art. I'm sure that if you'd played your management a track or two from Manafon to make your point then they would have got on your side with this...
