This is a story about dignity. I used to think I knew exactly how I’d respond in moments like these. I’d be like Cary Grant in 'His Girl Friday': Pithy, sophisticated, dryly witty and unflappably handsome. But, in fact, every time I’ve faced real-life drama I’ve been more like Ben Stiller at the end of 'There’s Something About Mary': running down the road screaming, flapping my arms, blubbing like a baby. Which is what I’m doing now.

There are more than 120 features playing at this year’s Philadelphia Film Festival/CineFest 09, a large number of them in week two. In the interest of originality, we’re going to borrow an idea from The Morning News.org’s Paul Ford, who came up with the Six-Word Review for SXSW—the best way to deal with having to write about 763 bands. Surely this can work for cinema, too.
