Kookaloruss
My experience at cucalorus was an interesting one, brief and yet, still enjoyable. I had gone with a friend to go see the Australian film The Square at lumina theatre right on campus. I hadnt originally been that into going to any films but i figured what the hell why not eh? so we went and were sitting in ther theatre and there was an announcer who introduced the movie and such, but there was a technical delay so they decided to screen some interesting animated (mostly stop motion) shorts. They kept delaying and delaying then they just straight up canceled the screening because the film was wound on the two reels backwards!! that was pretty lame and it sort of killed my already low excitement for the evening. the next day I decided to give it another shot and went to go see Easier With Practice which did actually screen and was quite an interesting film. Oh there was this really cool animation that was drawn completely on postcards sent through the mail! each and every frame!!! it was pretty cool. SO the film was about this guy who was an author on a book tour with his brother. they are both about mid twenties. The main guy gets in this intesne phone sex/ quasi-relationship with a random girl named "Nicole", only to find out at the end that Nicole was actually a black guy creeping on men for years. It was kind of uncomfortable in the scene where the guy gets the first call in the hotel he is staying at because they decided to use a one take that lasted for like more than 5 minutes! and the guy was just facing camera masturbating... I saw a few people in the audience walk out at this point. Maybe looking back I shouldve goen to more films, but I had tons of school work to get done, maybe next year will be more relaxing??
