I haven't seen anything yet, but I'm really, really hoping to go to the Surprise Midnight tonight. I have tickets for I Don't Feel at Home in this World Anymore later this week.

As for offscreen, Elijah Wood is a really good DJ, and if you have a chance to see Metropolis with a live score from Chrome Canyon, you should definitely go. The little snippet they played last night was real loving cool.

I Don't Feel at Home in this World Anymore was pretty good, and definitely recommended for fans of Jeremy Saulnier. The violence and comedy didn't always hit with the same impact, and I felt like it really should have been shot in the South instead of the PNW (which was Macon Blair's original plan). Melanie Lynskey was great as always, Elijah Wood was funny, and it had a neat, clever script. It comes out on Netflix on Feb 24th, so check it out soon.

I'm about to see The Good Postman, a documentary about a village on the Bulgarian/Turkey border and it's upcoming mayoral election.

So I completely loved The Good Postman. It was beautifully shot and edited, it felt very cinematic and unfolded in a very narrative way. The first half was funny and had some great visual gags, then the second half was very emotional, particularly in the wake of current political actions regarding refugees. And it did that great documentary thing of telling a very personal, intimate story that resonates with much more universal ideas and truths about community, empathy, aging, powerlessness.
