True/False Weekend

This weekend has been crazy fun.


Documentaries. Hipsters. Crowds. Costumes. Food. Theaters. Parades.


The annual True/False Film Festival is in town and I've found myself shuffling around downtown among a very diverse crowd and sitting through amazing documentaries that have brought out a variety of emotions: tears, laughter, greif, and joy. I love how a well done film can move you in ways that nothing else can.

Here is a short clip of what I ran into when I was going to a film last night:

I still have a few movies to go but the two that stand out to me are Undefeated (which actually won an Academy Award) and Going Up the Stairs. I can't stop thinking about them!

We've been able to make it to a lot of films so far because my parents were in town-which means we had a full time babysitter! They actually took Adelyn home with them tonight so I'm having my first night away from my gal in 9 months. I thought I'd be excited about the freedom but I was surprisingly a little emotional about sending her off to a different town for a night. I  have no doubt she is in good hands but I have been caught off guard by my reaction.

Anyway, it's been a great weekend so far. I still have four more films to see so hopefully my brain won't be too fried by Sunday night. On to my next movie!
