Toronto looks terribly stong this year, which happens about once every four or so years. The year that I went (2002) was not traditionally strong though I loved it a lot. Seeing 20 movies in 6 days does something interesting to you that this post is not really about. And I got to see and talk to Michael Almareyda, whom I respect, pretty much as much as any director working today - so that was good.

So anyway though, kinda wish I decided to go this year as I had planned. Instead I am venturing west just because I have never been. North and South Dakota and Wyoming, baby. Yeah!
