Films At Cucalorus

Well I ended up only going to see 2 of the films I was planning on seeing this weekend since the other one was in the morning and I didn't feel well that morning. So I went to the Whirligig Beetle shorts and The New Year. I loved the shorts. I'm extremely glad that I was able to see them. I loved seeing a bunch of different people's short films. I think all of the ones I saw I enjoyed. I definitely thought that Stanley Pickle was more of an experimental film since it had almost a stop motion feel with jerky motions. I really enjoyed Successful Alcoholics, cried suicide, and Dragon Slayerz. I thought those were all really well done and I loved the comedy in them. I also went and saw The New Year which I enjoyed a lot. I thought it was a nice story. It was a little slow at times, but overall it was good. I love how they left the ending somewhat open for interpretation. I think they left it with an optimistic feel, but they didn't tell us what the girl ultimately decides. I thought it was a great experience to go to these screenings and I wish I was able to see more. Maybe next year I'll be able to see more!
