Of course not! Don't be ridiculous. That's why we're here.

The Northwest Film Forum Brings Octubre and Inni to Town

Inni does a great job of depicting how it feels to experience Sigur Rós live, while also interspersing archival footage from the band's history as far back as 1998, when they were just little Icelandic babies.

This Week’s DVD Releases

This week brings yet another terrible car-based action film with Nicolas Cage, Drive Angry, and Javier Bardem's second Oscar-nominated performance in Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's Biutiful. Meanwhile, Kaboom is a perfectly serviceable sex and drug-fueled midnight film from Gregg Araki. But probably the most anticipated release this week is the third season of True Blood, even though Alan Ball's HBO vampire series long ago jumped the shark to so trashy bad it’s good.

Perhaps in the midst of SIFF you would like to take a break? That would be crazy. But if you would like to watch a film at home for a change, there are plenty of options new to DVD. Unfortunately, the big new releases for this week are not very good.

It's a good thing SIFF starts soon, because we are well within another dry spell in new releases.

The films coming out on DVD right now are pretty fair, all things considered. Some Oscar nominees, some blockbusters, and a whole lot of TV on DVD.
