SIFF

On my list of annual events to attend in Seattle is SIFF, the Seattle International Film Festival. This year, I only made it to one movie: August. The film was a tragic story of the demise of an dot com start up at the end of the boom. I don't think too many of my fellow movie buffs particularly liked it, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It did a great job of capturing the feel of the time (with pop culture references and now dated computers), excitement and overconfidence of the era, and its downfall. If you get a chance, check it out for yourself and let me know what you think.
