Sorry that I have been out of touch with regular blog readers. I have moved to Nantucket for the summer, and the weather here has been too great to spend much time in front of a keyboard. (The three best reasons to be a professor: June, July, and August.)
The past few days I have been attending the Nantucket Film Festival. I have had a chance to see some great movies before they are in general release. Two are worth mentioning: Arlo and Julie, a small quirky comedy/mystery that is a bit Woody Allen-esque. Also, Happiness, a documentary about a boy and his family in Bhutan.
This morning I am off to see Begin Again, which won the award for Best of Festival.
