The Unsophisticate's update #1

Have you heard? I’m going to be a Guest Blogger for the Sydney Film Festival (SFF).

I’m so excited. Some of you might think that film festivals are just for sophisticated movie goers that will debate the cinematic merit over a glass of red vino and a joint after the film. Well this is the year to challenge your assumptions and drag yourself off to at least one or two of the SFF sessions.

I’ve been a regular at the SFF for years and it’s one of the highlights of my social calendar! Even my mum’s been going to the SFF for over 20 years – in fact she’s had the same seat for most of that time. So for anyone seeing a session at the State Theatre please say hi to the lady in seat 48A.

For the rest of you, I hope I see you there. I attended the launch on Wednesday morning and got to see the previews for so many great films.

Check out the SFF website for my top picks. It’s going to be a jam packed 11 days…
