What we missed this week – Film Festivals

This week Viviane looks at the entertainment we are missing due to the Covid pandemic and gives us some alternative suggestions
What we missed this week – Film Festivals

Author: Photo provided by TaniaMaria Cabrera

This weekend the Cordillera International Film Festival in the Reno – Tahoe area moved to a virtual and drive-in setting. Filmmaker panels and workshops are held by video streaming, and films are shown in multiple drive-in theaters around the area.

 

The atmosphere of a movie theater and new releases, whether they be large box office sells or small independent festival entries, is something I have missed immensely this week. I have been holding my own film festivals at home.

 

Pick a handful of films by your favorite directors and make a screening for an audience of one. If you are looking to branch out, I highly suggest picking fun selections from the Coen Brothers or Wes Anderson collections. This weekend I watched Hail Caesar, Burn After Reading, A Serious Man, and Raising Arizona.

 

Creating a selection of films that you are unfamiliar with, makes for a refreshing feeling and a fun experience.

They strung them along for years until they had no financial choice but to accept and get out. My Dad even hauled water for the Snow ranch trying to stay afloat. May God bless you all. I truly pray it works out for you.Comment publication date: 3/28/26, 9:22 PMComment source: Local Rancher Says Navy Land Expansion is Devastating His Family RanchComment author: Lynn JohnsonComment text: I remember your mother well; she was a lovely and kind woman.

I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.
