Films by Jewish Filmmakers @ CIFF-06

I've now seen all four of the films directed by Jewish filmmakers (AVIVA MY LOVE, FAMILY LAW, FLANNEL PAJAMAS, & THE FOUNTAIN). Of these four, my top pick is definitely FAMILY LAW, the latest film by Argentinian director Daniel Burman. The others are good, but FAMILY LAW is really terrific. Read our FF2's COLUMN on the, Chicago International Film Festival 2006 for more details.

The 42nd annual Chicago International Film Festival begins this Thursday (10/5), so I'm busily attending critic's screenings & watching DVD screeners at home. Once the CIFF begins, I will post daily updates here in my new blog, providing more details about which films I'm seeing & who I'm meeting for f2f interviews. Meanwhile check out FF2's main CIFF webpage for complete details including a link to their website.
