Floating Leaf

So, the Chicago International Film Festival schedule is finally out. A Dangerous Method will be shown on Monday the 10th. Only once, with no special bells & whistles attached. Same goes for The Three Musketeers, which I suppose would be the chief attraction to all the Orlando fans on my flist.;) They're showing it on Sunday the 16th - at roughly the same time as another Orlando movie, The Good Doctor. Yes, really. I know that, technically, each of these two films is aimed at a totally different audience - but those who would like to see Orlando in both will have to choose (again, each one will be shown only once). Which kinda sucks. All things considered, I think I'm picking the Doctor. The Musketeers will be in 3D, and I'm not sure how that works for people who wear regular glasses... I've read online accounts of migraines and such among some 3D viewers with various sorts of visual impairment, which makes me a little wary. Anyway... I wasn't too crazy to see that one ASAP. My chief aim is to catch some foreign rarities which might never get a wide release, or even a DVD, here in the States. That's what I did last year - and at least one of the films I saw then STILL isn't available through Netflix. So, points for me.;)

In other news, we had a company meeting at work yesterday, due to which I had to get up at 4:30 a.m. Yes, you got that right: FOUR THIRTY. It was at a remote suburban location, and they provided bus transport to all the employees who either couldn't or didn't want to drive to the location themselves; but the bus was scheduled to leave the office at seven, so I needed to leave home at six. Honestly, I'm not quite sure how I did it, and if I never have to do it again, it will be too soon.:P I'm still recovering from the drastic disruption of my regular sleeping schedule...

Speaking of which... yeah, it's bedtime again.:/ *signs off*
