Tuesday Report

July travels and not many movies... I'm catching up just a little bit with a couple of Wisconsin Film Fest selections.

MY YEAR WITHOUT SEX (2009)

2010 WIFF selection. Pretty unremarkable... I later read there is a specific genre of movie called the 'Australian middle-class comedy' that this movie is an example of.

HARVARD BEATS YALE 29-29 (2008)

2009 WIFF selection. I wouldn't normally choose this, but it sounded intriguing relative to other sports films. What was a surprise was that the documentary was simply game footage and interviews with the players. A rather straightforward formula manages to hold together a documentary for 100 minutes. It dragged a little towards the end, though.
