New friend Maddie is headed to Europe for nearly a month, Marie has new, if temporary, digs, not sure what Mike and Angie are up to, and I need to get in touch with Loren and Angie.
There are some pretty amazing films happening in Eugene this week, new films by the younger Miyazaki (From Up On Poppy Hill), Ken Loach (The Angels' Share), Harmony Korine (Spring Breakers), Susanne Bier - who I am not at all familiar with (Love Is All You Need), Steven Soderbergh (Side Effects), Noah Baumbach (Frances Ha), and Sam Raimi (Oz, Great And Powerful), a new version of the film that brought Sam Raimi b-movie stardom (Evil Dead), along with a just-missed film, Renoir, about one of my favorite film makers, Jean Renoir. Also some entertaining movies, The Croods, my first Antoine Fuqua film, Olympus Has Fallen, Oblivion, and 42.
Gotta make a point to see a couple of those this weekend. I have a coffee date at braille's on Sunday. Should be a fold weekend. Going to bring loads to storage as well.
