COUCH FEST is Coming to Philadelphia, and 35 other Cities Around the World – December 6th
POST UPDATE 12/9/14: Le Anne Lindsay & Nicole Ayers Attended Couch Fest last Saturday, and met the Philly host Nicole Ayers in person, as our interview (see original post below) had been conducted online. As it’s my dream to one day be on a film festival jury panel, I enjoyed voting on the 16 shorts screened; however, I wish there had been a little more time in between films to really process my thoughts on each one. My favorite: Mit besten Grussen (With Best Regards) (Germany 5 min) | Filmmaker: Bernhard Wenger A woman desperate to meet her crush takes her coworker’s advice to “gently” damage his car and…

Blog Contributor: MEN, WOMEN & CHILDREN
I’m a fan of Jason Reitman’s films: Thank You for Smoking (2006) Juno (2007) Up in the Air (2009) Young Adult (2011) Labor Day (2013) there’s always a bit of melancholy mixed with subtle humor and a side of social commentary not far beneath the surface.
