Wow! Did this creep up on anybody else? We were thinking this was still a ways off, and then all of the sudden the website is live, the schedule is up, and tickets go on sale TODAY (although as of this writing, the links for purchasing don't seem to be live yet online)! (UPDATE: Online ticketing now appears to be up and running.) We haven't had a chance to look over this year's list of movies in detail, but a quick glance at program titles like "Asian Gangsters" and "A Salute to Disney Animation" has already gotten us pretty excited. If, like us, you could use some help getting a handle on what's showing this year and what are the best things to see, you might want to check out one of the Evening with the Curators events. We're embarrassed to say we missed the first one of these this year last night, where the program was unveiled and information on advanced ticket sales was given out. But we're sure future installments with the curators will be plenty informative and fun, too. You can get an idea of what to expect at the event from our coverage of last year's. It's the inside scoop on how the festival was programmed, which of the films are the curators' favorites, and how you should go about scheduling and viewing the films. This year we are also promised film clips! Sweet.
