If at first you don't succeed try try again - - and did we ever try
Love and Other Disasters was a wonderful Brittany Murphy movie seen at TIFF - was it last year already ? - but totally appropriate to the scheduling disaster now left here.
The day of the ticket pickup the first exchange and additions were made - with some success and some disappointment. And it all started off with a disastrous trade the day after [ now that is a disaster movie ]. Trying to get rid of scheduling conflicts necessitated second choice backups and more backups as the projected first wave of changes did not materialize. Entering the lineup twice afterwards - then after a final consultation with the book and the schedule and a plan of attack on paper worthy of Patton, we hit the lineup for the third time at 4:00 pm [ 16h00 ].
It seems the TIFF gods looked down from above and laughed as once again we tried for Lust, Caution and Eastern Promises, and tried to reschedule No Country for Old Men and The Assassination of ... The Argentos were still no go but Catherine Breillat emerged from the dungeon with Une Vieille Maitresse [ this should be fun - who has not seen Fat Girl or Sex is Comedy or L'anatomie de l'enfer at TIFF? ]. The Australian film September became available and so did the evening slot for Juno which means Elizabeth: The Golden Age can stay but In Bloom is now in conflict as are yet Lars and the Real Girl and King of California. It will definitely be nice to see Les Bons Debarras again - one of the very first quebecois movies we ever saw.
But clerical error has left us appalled and without any tickets for either Persepolis or The Brave One on Day One opening night Thursday and Jodie Foster The Brave One showing up on Friday Day Two.
In any case, the disaster is below down there below all that white space - we do not know why it exists so keep on scrolling.
