An actual blog update....... kind of

It’s been far too long – what have I been up to? Well nobody asked so what the hell – why not talk.

This summer was crazy, it lead me to far flung places like Pompton Lakes, NJ, the Flaherty Seminar and a few times Toronto for research trips at the NFB and the Cinemateque Ontario.

Beyond that I did make a film I’m very proud of that is taking some form and have been swamped with TIFF 2010 – which is why this time last year I was sort of anti-social: the energy of TIFF could power you straight for 10 days without sleep, who needs sleep when there is that much cinema to catch with the highly receptive audience.

Instead of posing my exploits here, I’ll be covering TIFF for The Film Stage, where my review of Easy A is already posted:

More reviews to come from Toronto – including this weekend when I’ll catch two up my most anticipated film of the fest, Bruce Springsteen in The Promise: The Making of the Darkness on the Edge of Town.
