Seen 6 films in day and a half. went from 7:00 a.m. untl 10:30 p.m. and saw 4 films today. The reason so few is that Telluride has an atrocious entry system. All a $800 pass entitles you to is the right to stand in line for 2 hours before each movie and hope that there are enough open seats to reach you in line. One hour before the movie they pass out entry numbers – still no guarantee of entry. Finally a half hour before the film they decide how many seats are left after patrons are admitted. So one needs to be in line at last an hour and a half before the film.
Lost in Paris 1 1/2 stars (Too avudeville / slapstick)
Maudie w/ Sally Hawkins and Ethan Hawke 3 stars
Una with Rooney Mara and Ben Mendelsson 4 stars
Things to Come – Isabelle Ruppert 3 stars
Frantz 4 stars
Arrival – Amy Adams 2 stars (Contact was much better)
I am saving detailed analyses until later tim.
My book is being received very well. A lot of people aware of the signing
People in line very friendly which makes the wait tolerable.
