At this point it doesn't really matter how my day was yesterday, since none of y'all are going to be see anymore movies because hot docs is over. But since you asked, the highlight of the day was Kumare, about a dude from New Jersey who dresses up like an Indian guru and convinces a bunch of gullible Arizonians to become his followers. I found him inspiring - I'm already growing out my own beard to see how many followers I can amass.
The People's Choice award was announced today, and was awarded to Somewhere Between, about American girls who were adopted from China, and the difficulties that they encounter as a result of being "somewhere between" the two cultures. I'm kicking myself for missing this. I skipped it last Sunday because I was hungry and I needed a break. Poor showing, Dr. Dock. And to think that I call myself a doctor...
Coming soon (as in tonight, tomorrow, or whenever I get around to it): a list and ranking of all of the movies I saw, and perhaps some of my own awards. Stay tuned.
what about an award for best hot doc volunteer/announcer-prior-to-film-screening?
