After scurrying from the UW campus up to cap square to watch Weather Gazers at the Bartell theater, we had to scurry back again to the Union theater on the UW campus to watch Summer Wars, the last film on our schedule for this year’s film festival. Next year, we’ve got to try a little harder to schedule films that are closer together.
Summer Wars was a Japanese animated film, a genre that I like and B goes along with, bless her heart. The story behind the film was only so-so, but the artwork behind the animation was gorgeous, so I gave this one a Three out of Five.
After the film we went to Husnu’s, a Turkish restaurant on State Street, to put on some of the weight we lost running all over town to see movies. Eighteen films in five days! Doesn’t seem possible that it’s over. Already looking forward to next year.
