From the Past to the Present

Don't forget that if you are in the New York area, Fish Tank will be playing in town.  Check IFCfilms.com or previous posts on this blog.

Also, if you are in Cleveland this weekend, Francois Ozon's "Angel" will be playing at The Cleveland Institute of Art Cinematheque on Saturday and Sunday.  If you can't wait for "Fish Tank" to make it near you, take a peek at "Angel".

Michael filmed this movie right after "300" and they both premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival at the same time.  He seems to be promoting more than one major film at a time during festivals.   

"Angel" is a very lush looking movie; beautiful costumes and rich scenery.  It's also over the top, so chuckling is allowed.  Michael's performance is great as Esme', Angel's brooding husband.
