Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend. Well it is back to school for the kiddies up here in the Northeast and a return to a “normal” pattern for the rest of us.
Here are a few of the highlights that I am looking forward to this month:
1) Won’t Back Down Screening: this Thursday the plan is to take advantage of being the recipient of tickets to see the Viola Davis/Maggie Gyllenhaal “inspired by” piece. Hopefully with a review to follow.
2) The 50th Annual New York Film Festival. Oops! I missed the press credential-ing deadline, so if I do occasion to go to any screenings I am likely to go as a layperson.
3) Another classic to grace our screens: next, I am s excited about seeing the Hitchcock classic The Birds. Anyone else going to catch this one?
4) Also on TCM …: as per usual, TCM has a lot which tickles my fancy, including:
- Starring Cary Grant on September 11th
- Silent masterpiece Sunrise on September 15th
5) With any luck…: I am really hoping that the movie gods are shining down upon me nearer to the end of the month as I am hoping to score some tickets to small, independently-spirited film that opens in the UK on October 26th.
How about you all? What are you looking forward to this month?

I have been a bad movie lover of late … Nothing is really screaming out to me to run out and see. Makes me a bit sad really 🙁

WOW, the Viola Davis/Maggie Gyllenhaal combo should be enough for me to see Won’t Back Down!

The one fear is that it can go a bit “afterschool” special on us.

Been a hell of a long wait for Looper and looks like it’s going to be worth it!

People are getting quite excited about Looper – I think I missed the enthusiasm boat on this one.
