The Fifth Annual
Milwaukee International Film Festival begins this week on the 20th. The ten day festival is loaded with interesting foreign and American shorts and feature length films. Among the theaters showing films are; UWM Union, Times Cinema, Oriental, Downer, Discovery World and Milw. Art Museum. The Art Museum is showing at least 20 shorts and three documentaries, plus it will be hosting the opening night gala on Thurs. the 20th from 8:30 to 11:30.
Several of the films sound interesting, "Cashback", "Kurt Cobain About a Son", and "In the Shadow of the Moon" to name a few. While there are a couple I wouldn't waste my time on; "Super Kitten and the Great Cheese Robbery" and "I Want Someone to Eat Cheese With," both from Illinois.
I've thought about doing the film fest other years but never have. Maybe this will be the year. General admission tickets are $9.00.
