People are starting to ramp up for Sundance. If you’re not fortunate enough to make it to the snowy town, you can still enjoy some innovative American cinema. Sundance has started 10 Shorts 10 Days where they show… 10 shorts in 10 days! All for free on the internet.

Enjoy!

Hokkaido Food Festival

Penguin says

Ninja and I just got back from the Hokkaido Food Festival at Mitsuwa in Edgewater, NJ.  If you can get there, go!  We had some great ramen and picked up some other really interesting Japanese food.

When you enter the market from the side entrance, get in the line on the right side for the ramen.  It’s miso ramen.  The other shop is always there.

What we got:

  • miso ramen
  • crab cream puffs (fried)
  • simmered squid stuffed with rice
  • mochi covered in red bean paste
  • la france pear soft serve ice cream

Thanks to Q and Nancy for accompanying us!

Festival runs until Monday Oct 1.

NY Film Festival

Penguin August 16th, 2007

Penguin says

The NY Film Festival has just announced 28 films will be shown from Sep 28 - Oct 14.  I’m looking forward to Paranoid Park, directed by Gus Van Sant of Good Will Hunting fame.

For all you Blade Runner fans, Ridley Scott will be presenting his “definitive cut”.  If you’ve seen any of the DVD releases, you’ll know that Blade Runner never got its proper treatment.
The festival will be held at Frederick P. Rose Hall this year.

If you’re in the area, come out.
