Wisconsin Film Festival
April 7, 2008 // No Comments
Yet another reason to love Madison: The1oth annual Wisconsin Film Festival presented again a broad choice of excellent films, 4 of which we had the privilege to enjoy.
My two favorites are ‘Garbage Warrior’ and ‘Bon Cop, Bad Cop’. One an inspiring documentary about New Mexico based architect Michael Reynolds’ quest for sustainable, energy-independent housing, the other an hilariously funny, Starsky& Hutch-gone-Canadian type cop and buddy movie. Both films I would and I will watch again and can only recommend to everybody.
Rounded up by ‘Big Man Japan’, a sort of surreal documentary-style, CGI mix Japanese super hero versus monsters experimantal film with definite cult potential and by ‘Prague’, from the danish cinema, a film that you will find in the late night program of European public television stations, with a good portion of interpersonal drama, a slightly too sober melancholy and irrevocable determinism for my taste.
Thanks to the Wiscosnin Film Festival for a great movie weekend!
