"Six months after Telluride, these are the films still stuck in my mind: The amazing dance hall scene of Grémillion's Maldonne. The patient humor of Dodsworth. The final shot of Julia Loktev's Day Night Day Night. And teenagers sitting in a circle at a community center trying and failing to articulate feelings in Civic Life.

"FRIDAY EVENING: SEVERANCE - don't like horror/slasher movies so this was not fun. i can appreciate that it was clever and funny (i was laughing when i wasn't cringing) but it was not for me. i'm sure it will be very popular! Laura Harris (Daisy from Dead Like Me) was fun to watch and made it tolerable. SATURDAY MORNING: A TRIBUTE TO WALTER MURCH - liked this a lot. only tribute we made it to. after some clips there was an on-stage interview and although technical it was really fascinating. highlights for me were when he talked about how he redid Touch of Evil using Orson Welles' notes and how he edited the Godfather movies. great storytelling and behind the scenes info. could have listened for another hour. SATURDAY AFTERNOON: THE SENTIMENTAL BLOKE - one of my absolute favorites. i love silent films and this rare one from Australia i'd never heard of. very charming, with live original music from an Australian composer.

"Any combination of William Wyler, Samuel Goldwyn, and Walter Huston amount to a classic. Period. Dodsworth endures because it's a sophisticated piece with a lot going on beneath the surface. A retired automaker goes on a European voyage with his wife of twenty years who's going through her own midlife crisis. It's 100 minutes of snappy, intelligent dialogue injecting humor into mature themes of infidelity and marriage. Dodsworth is a man ready to leap into the chapter of old age and enjoying the fruit of his labor. His wife is terrified of old age and runs into the arms of any man who takes an interest in her. After this film was screened at Telluride 2006, Sam Goldwyn Jr. did the Q&A. When asked why remakes of Dodsworth have been picked up and dropped so many times, he replied there's little sympathy for this film. We can't help but view movies from the time we live in. Dodsworth's wife is unsympathetic for cheating on him. Dodsworth is unsympathetic because, today, nobody un ... "
