Cucalorus Film Festival

I had a great time at Cucalorus Film Festival. I was a bit worried at first because between work, homework and tests, and my children, I did not know when I was going to be able to find the time to attend. Then at 6:30pm on Friday my children were invited to spend the night at a friend's house and was able to go see the films I really wanted to see. I still made a mistake, however, because I did not read the assignment sheet before I left, I saw a short and a feature at Lumina Theatre rather than at Jengo's Playhouse. I kept thinking I was missing something. After talking to Micki I understand what I was missing - The Party with all the Filmmakers. I enjoyed the intimate setting of the films I saw at Lumina Theatre and I chose to see those films because they had a personal meaning to me. So I did break the rules but for a good reason . Next year, however, I am sending the kids to Grandma and getting a hotel room downtown and a pass for my husband and I am not going to miss a minute.
