I have never been to a major film festival before, but someday I hope to. In the meantime I obsessively comb each year’s entrants in hopes of finding my next favorite movie. This year, I decided to share with you all what I’m most looking forward to seeing. Some are already available, and I just haven’t had a chance to rent/buy them yet, others are still a ways out. If you’ve seen any of them, please let me know what you thought!
And if I missed any that you really want to see, or have seen and really dug, let me know that too!
This list is not going to be short or in any particular order, so bear with me!
