Today's my last day here in Venice but I've got a couple more films to see before I head off to the airport. It's been an okay year in terms of quality with only a couple movies of exceptional quality, several others jostling in the category marked "good/very good", and more than a few turkeys. I have a number of reviews still to write, among them
Ponyo On The Cliff By The Sea which I loved enormously and which is tying with
Valentino as my favourite of the festival thus far. The imagination involved is extraordinary and the film must be a serious contender for The Golden Lion. Ciao for now...

SO glad to read of your Ponyo love!
It's really rather wonderful. I'll have my review up soon.
Can't wait to read - I'm a Miyazaki whore. But speaking of genius animated features, I FINALLY saw WALL-E on Sunday. My new favourite Pixar, and I'd argue their greatest. Just gorgeous.
As much as I love the first half of Wall-E, I think I still prefer The Incredibles.
