365 days of 40 #173-174

Sundance is over, which is always so sad. Once again, I wasn't able to see as many movies as I wanted, but I did manage to see a few good ones.

Friday night, Nancy and I were able to sneak out and see, "The trip to Italy", a British comedy with Steve Coogan. It was pretty good. It was really nice to be able to hang out with her because I haven't had a chance to see her since she's had the new baby.  Sometimes it's really hard to maintain friendships because people get busy and that is always so sad.

Saturday, I was able to usher for the Indian film, "The Lunch Box", which was a wonderful and uplifting story.  It didn't have a happy ending per se, but it had a hopeful ending, one where you really hoped that once the credits rolled, they managed to get together.  I thought it was probably the best film that I saw.

Later, I managed to get one final film in,  "What We Do In The Shadows", thanks to volunteer tickets.  It was by far the funniest film I had seen.  A vampire mockumentary,  and I laughed my ass off.  Both of the ones I saw on Saturday, I totally want to buy of I can get the chance. 

It's time for me to get over myself and get my stuff going, because I'm tired of not living my dream.  My films are good enough to be made. I just need to keep remembering that.
