DVD/BLU-RAY RELEASE
On April 17th, Steve McQueen’s acclaimed Shame is scheduled for release on home video. I have already pre-ordered my copy.
BOOK OF THE MONTH
Olivia de Havilland and Joan Fontaine: Twisted Sisters: To Each Her Own
REPERTORY CINEMA
Playing at the local Picture House in Pelham, NY (long-overdue profile forthcoming) is Woody Allen’s Annie Hall. I have never seen the film and am looking forward to seeing it for the first time on the big screen.

It seems such a long time ago that there was a film festival near me. It all seems to kick off in the Autumn here!
I hope you enjoy yourself and I look forward to the coverage.

April 2, 2012 at 12:34 pmI have avoided it for many years not on purpose or anything. Just never really bothered to see it. So I am quite excited to see it.

April 2, 2012 at 12:35 pmDefinitely a fun festival. I volunteered for several years in various capacities; that was equally enjoyable!
ruth says
April 3, 2012 at 1:18 pmOh how cool! I think it’s great that we get to participate in film fests. I’m looking forward to TCFF later this October, it’s not the same caliber obviously, but still fun to be a part of.

April 3, 2012 at 1:48 pmI am definitely of the opinion that people should volunteer at least once. I really wanted to work at Sundance and Toronto also.

April 3, 2012 at 4:05 pmI saw Annie Hall for the first time in January for the Blind Spot series I’m taking part in. Don’t have your expectations too high for it on first watch. It feels like a grower to me.
