Well, well, its already drifted past, and slowly these eyes are uncurling, and peeking at this very circular world we live. In. DIFF007 has been and been scene, not a has-been scene but a token bar scene, with beers and popcorn.
I have been away from my desk, and so these posts are coming thru a little slower than I had hoped. Here are the final days' posts:
The WAVESCAPE Finale'.
I'm referring to, of course, the KwaCinema Finale' - a supreme evenings viewing, for water babies and land-lovers too. I've never ally been fascinated by 'surf genre' movies, cos it looks like surferWanking material. A Penthouse of Waves. Lots of them do have good music though. And this we like. Personal favourite was Glass Love. Even though I caught most of it in the foyer, the music had a driving element, that thing about the surfer way of life, the eternal search for the eternal wave. Any movie that features a track from Neil Young's 'On the Beach' album as part of the soundtrack, gets serious thumbsup! Great to have soothing, calming and terrifying waves to soundtrack the eyes.
The final movie, one the first I saw with my bum to a seat was Sipping Jetstreams. A moving collage of people and places from the world hand pasted together in a collage of discovery and delight. Really fractions of culture from places in the world, with the sea and the rhythm as the connector, this really had an impression on me. if you get a chance to see it, its worth the 50 minutes.
