Friday evening after seeing South of Ten & Radiant City I went home to have dinner, but two hours later I was at the Full Frame Festival again to see The Right To Be Left Alone.

This is a documentary about the life of Larry Flynt, a publisher of a pornographic magazine and a life-long activist for the freedom of speech. There is a fiction movie about Larry Flynt that I had never seen, and this documentary was interesting. The movie made a case that it is important that every generation learns and remembers how crucially important the right for free speech is.

Larry Flynt was scheduled to attend the movie (a world wide premiere) but couldn't make it for health reasons.

A website that shows Ads vs. Reality.

Advertisements for food paired with actual pictures of that food.

Horrible news from Virginia Tech today -- someone killed more than 20 people at the Campus today.

I was there for a career fair in November 2005 and it's deeply sad to read this news.

I was up bright and early this morning, and I was at the Festival at 8.00 am to get tickets for 2 shows that were sold out in the advanced ticket sale. The line wasn't very long and I got my tickets.

The Festival has nice tables with good coffee and wireless access. I'm on my way to get in line for the next show that starts at 9.30 am, 2 movies about Africa.

The beautiful Carolina theater.

Lines for tickets.

Tonight I went to the Full Frame Festival right after work. I saw two movies in a session that started at 5.45 pm: South of Ten followed by Radiant City.

The first one, South of Ten, was only 10 minutes long. It showed daily lives being picked up after hurricane Katrina -- a little girl bicycling through a littered landscape, boys looking at a broken bridge...

I selected this session for the 2nd movie, Radiant City. This was an entertaining film about living in the suburbs in North-America. Conversations by experts on urban planning were mixed with interviews of a family that lives in a suburb in Canada, and what influence living in a suburb has on their daily life. It was a fun but thought provoking movie that was about much more than just the urban planning aspects of the suburbs.

At the end of the session there was a Q&A session, but I was getting pretty hungry so I went home right after the movie ended.
