What we missed this week – Film Festivals

What we missed this week – Film Festivals

Author: Photo provided by TaniaMaria Cabrera

This weekend the Cordillera International Film Festival in the Reno – Tahoe area moved to a virtual and drive-in setting. Filmmaker panels and workshops are held by video streaming, and films are shown in multiple drive-in theaters around the area.

 

The atmosphere of a movie theater and new releases, whether they be large box office sells or small independent festival entries, is something I have missed immensely this week. I have been holding my own film festivals at home.

 

Pick a handful of films by your favorite directors and make a screening for an audience of one. If you are looking to branch out, I highly suggest picking fun selections from the Coen Brothers or Wes Anderson collections. This weekend I watched Hail Caesar, Burn After Reading, A Serious Man, and Raising Arizona.

 

Creating a selection of films that you are unfamiliar with, makes for a refreshing feeling and a fun experience.
