Before I get into today, let me explain the reruns.
The Cannes Official Selection has reruns during the last four days of the festival, from Thursday and into Sunday, for all of those movie-watching needs that you didn't get during the premieres. And the best part: you have to have a Marche badge.
So starting off this day, I already knew which movies I'd been planning to see.
Unfortunately, I overslept.
So, instead, I went to the Am Pav to listen to our good friend John Cameron Mitchell give a talk about film and drag queens, as you do. It was awesome, and I invited JCM to the annual drag show that we host at UGA. I'm genuinely hoping he takes me up on that offer.
I only saw one film today, and it was the Olympia premiere of Good Time, by the Safdie brothers and starring Robert Pattinson. ...Eh?
Eh???
Everyone loved it. I didn't? Like, it was a good movie. I just didn't like it. Hopefully the reasons so will be clear in my next review. But ultimately, I feel like the movie tried to be too many things and ended up... pointless.
Still, it's worth a watch, and I don't regret seeing it.
I do regret sleeping through that showing of Rodin, though.
Movie count: 25
