“It’s not the same kind of film consumption today,” said Poitras. “A good Boîte Noire customer would come in 30 weeks a year and rent between three and five films. That’s disappeared. Young people are less there. Look, we often talk about film festivals and how they’re festivals for the grey-hair set. It’s a different world. Look, I was in one little corner of the galaxy so it’s hard for me to talk about the entire galaxy. But I see less people interested in the masters, in filmmakers like Fellini and Bergman. For a long time we had a student special. You could rent two films for $5.50. That doesn’t destroy your budget. But it didn’t work. We’re in a society where we entertain ourselves to death. The leisure offering is so much bigger than it was 20 or 30 years ago.”

Hilarious! But also thoughtful and perceptive.

 

David Tennant is currently playing Richard II in a cycle of Shakespeare history plays at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and on Wednesday night, he stopped by Stephen Colbert’s show to tell him all about it. But before he could, he had to take part in a very silly “Who’s On First” spoof with late night’s most verbally gifted host, one that wrapped in Doctor Who, Doctor Strange, and Benedict Cumberbatch (who, coincidentally, is about to play Richard III on British TV).

Convention Review

Ad Astra

Ad AstraAd Astra was a good con, not their best, but not bad either. It turns out that many volunteers had only become involved in January. That’s really learning to swim the hard way! They did a good job indeed, considering the time they had.

I’ve no pictures, my camera just stopped working, yet it was fine a week ago. I did take some video of the masquerade, but haven’t had a chance to view it yet. If it’s OK, I’ll post it here. It was rather short compared to the good ol’ days, but there were some fine costumes, and good skits.

For me, the best panels were the ones on space ship design, police procedures myth busting, and 1966–the Year of. SF on TV.  There were an amazing number of panels directed at wannabe authors, and apparently a lot of wannabe authors were in attendance. The Mountie giving the police procedures presentation asked how many were in attendance because they were authors wanting to get it right, and nearly everyone raised a hand.

Regrettably, there was very little on costuming or art, and the art show was very small. Only one piece jumped out at me, an amazing Game of Thrones quilt.  There was no artist GoH, a big disappointment for me.

There were free books to choose from at registration–cool! I found a new author I like.

The dealer room was ok, but at my age I am not much into collecting stuff. In fact, I have to start getting rid of stuff! There was a lot of jewellery, but when do I get to wear pretty things anymore? Many book dealers, I mostly spent time browsing their wares. There were complaints about the dealer room being downstairs and way off down the hall, but really there is not much choice given the space the con can afford to rent.

I’ve registered for next year. Ad Astra is one of a very few fan run cons left. and deserving of support.
