Once again the tech team at Scotiabank theatres had their challenges. Good thing since I had been sitting in a large theatre at the Lightbox, eagerly waiting for DESCENDANTS to begin. And when the character of a slave began rolling around and banging himself on the head, something told me I was in the wrong movie, let alone theatre. Running over to Scotiabank, I was the only one relieved that the film hadn't entered the auditorium. After 45 minutes, I decided to head to TRISHNA, directed by Michael Winterbottom and starring SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRES Frieda Pinto. I was glad I had. It's an amazing view of India from the largest cities to the smallest villages. My luck began to wane as did the day with 360, a tragicomic view of love lost and found all over the world with a stellar cast, DARK HORSE, a disappointing new Todd Solodonz film where I kept waiting for the TS to come through, and the last film of the day UNION SQUARE, directed by Nancy Savoca and starring Mira Sorvino. But the saddest part of my day is depicted in this shot:
This is the red carpet at the Fox Searchlight Party. It represents my missing Bono and GEORGE CLOONEY who made a ten minute appearance before we arrived. One chicken dog, no dinner.
