  • At the IFC Blog, Alison Willmore unpacks the wildly divisive buzz surrounding Filth and Wisdom. “On one side is the urge to wield the long knife one’s probably been sharpening since the film’s presence at the festival was announced, and on the other is, perhaps, that wild contrarian compulsion to hold up the sure-to-be-maligned film as a misunderstood masterpiece.” Meanwhile, Jurgen Fauth defends his positive exit Twitter.
  • Mike Jones has the winners of the Teddys, Berlinale’s juried queer film prizes. Matt Dentler got the news via a call from winner Olaf de Fleur, whose The Amazing Truth about Queen Raquela will be making its US premiere at SXSW next month. See a “making of” short above.
