Peter Cameron – It’s hard to not get excited when I hear the pressure releasing four letter word—SIFF. The Seattle International Film Festival is back and this year there are no COVID woes to slow it down.

SIFF 2023 Preview: The 39 Films on Tim’s “Short List”
Tim Basaraba – The 49th annual Seattle International Film Festival kicks off later this week, which means it’s time to share the films I’m most excited to see.
473 Words on “A Thousand and One”
Tim Basaraba – Melodrama is not a bad word. Sure, it gets a bad rap for intentionally eliciting emotional responses, but isn’t that what cinema is supposed to do? A.V. Rockwell’s feature film debut, A Thousand and One, does just that – uses melodrama in an attempt to make the audience feel a particular way.
Film Appreciation 101: Optimum Immersion
Tim Basaraba – As a self-proclaimed “Cinephile,” I pride myself on maximizing the experience whenever I watch a film. To do so, I recommend an approach I call “Optimum Immersion (OI).”
Zach Braff: A Good Person
Tim Basaraba – I’ve always been indifferent to Zach Braff. I’ve never seen his films Garden State (2004) or Wish I Was Here (2014), nor have I watched a single episode of Scrubs (2004-2009). I don’t have an aversion to Braff, his acting, or his directing, it’s just that some people’s work doesn’t find it’s way into my life.
