Bits and Pieces

A couple of interesting things to pass along that don't directly relate to waht will play in 2 and 1/2 weeks...but are connected to the Fest.

First, this video resignation of a TFF staff member is making the rounds of the web this afternoon:

Sounds like some internal trouble at the happiest place on Earth (DisneyWorld notwithstanding).

And multiple sources reporting this afternoon that Clint Eastwood's "Hereafter" starring Matt Damon will close the NY Film Fest. Essentially closing the door on it for good as a possible Telluride film. We'd already pretty much reached that conclusion anyway.

Last note...Kris Tapley at Incontention.com has just tweeted that he has the "lowdown" on the TFF #37 lineup. Says it' s " a hell of a lineup." Wonder if we could pry any info out of him???
