2-1-08 Reinactors Rocks Rotterdam
Just returned home from International Film Festival of Rotterdam 2008 where The Reinactors world premiered, clearly a resounding success for the film. All the screenings were sold out, with no press or hype. Besides being placed in the top ten audience favorites (Daily Tiger 1-26) , The Reinactors also picked up 7 additional international film festivals. The future brightening considerably for the film, thank you Film Festival Rotterdam and Cameron Jamie. Cameron's films (BB, JO, Spook House, & Kranky Clause) were shown along with live performaces from The Melvins and Keiji Heino. My 1982 LA punk doc The Slog Movie was also screened as a part of Cameron's Cinematic Nuggets. -David Markey
