Sundance and the MPAA

Some cinematic news to ponder the MPAA (Motion Picture Arts Associaiton) plan to meet with filmmakers, producers, etc this Sunday at Sundance to make the ratings system more transparent. And speaking of Sundance the festival opened yesterday with a documentary film, Brett Morgen's Chicago 10, which is a mix of animation and archival footage from the Vietnam war-protested 1968 Democratic Convention.

As for me, classes are in full swing. Film production gets underway next week. The kids are hanging in there. Winter here is bizarre and apparently showing up on the west coast instead.
