Festival Favorites

The Philadelphia Film Festival has announced its Festival Favorites, and you can find a list of them on the festival website. They're all screening tomorrow evening in only two timeslots, which seems like a terrible idea to us, as that means you'll only be able to see two of them, at most (unless you've got Hermione's magical time turner on you). This Phillyist, for instance, would like to see Dog Bite Dog, but it's at the same time as The King of Kong, a film we definitely don't want to miss, so we're screwed. But hey, that's the festival for you! Always well organized! But we kid the festival. Anyway, some of these can't really be considered "favorites," as they were already scheduled for these timeslots, either because they were added late and didn't fit anywhere else, or just... because. But anyway, there they are. We're pleased to see that one of our favorites, Severance, made it to the list. Editor Jill is probably happy to see The Kovak Box here, although this Phillyist is not (blech!). We're really, really disappointed that Dead Daughters made it, as that's probably the worst movie we saw at the festival this year.

And it looks like the Phillyist staff managed to miss seeing all the rest of the films on the list. So what about you, readers? Did any of your favorites make it to the Favorites? Did any of your least favorites? Comment and let us know.
