Last night four of us sat out in the courtyard for hours, drinking our wine and talking. Eventually we made dinner and then went out to find the Irish bar with free wi-fi (pronounced wee-fee) that we found earlier. The bar turned out to be closed on Mondays (go figure) but we went to the next one and had a good time.
So, next day, the boat to the Lido took about 30 minutes at which point Walter took us on a tour of the grounds (pictures available on Facebook at some point) and then let us go for lunch. The eight of us who went together got kicked out of a restaurant because we wanted food, but managed to find a nicer restaurant farther on. After lunch there was a lot of hanging around, waiting for publicists to come and give us jobs. Oh! We got our festival catalogues today, which detail all of the films showing here and also has a list of the producers/distributors attending the fest. Score! I’m going to helping out/observing publicity work on Jerichow, a German film, and Nuit de chien (Tonight) a French/German co-pro. Going to take it easy tonight, ‘cause the fun starts tomorrow with the opening screening of Burn After Reading.
