:: reviews redux ::

Somewhat belatedly, I found Bob Greene's picks for the Spring Showcase on the Honolulu Weekly's website. My apologies for the delay.

Moon Yun and Albert Lanier wrote about the Opening Night of the Showcase for Aint-It-Cool News. Albert also has an AICN review for HARD CANDY here.

The Guardian (registration required) has an excellent article on TSOTSI, the Showcase's Opening Night Film. The article touches on the South African film industry, race, ticket prices and how comedies like There's a Zulu on My Stoep can drown out the new generation of directors.

Click here for a Chosun Ilbo article on the Korean indiefilm queen Bae Doo-na, who starred as the exchange student (and punk rock singer) in LINDA LINDA LINDA.
