And the French films this year were deadly1 How two mighty film centers have fallen!</p> http://chicagoist.com/2007/10/14/ciff_one_hundre.php#comment-1219686 http://chicagoist.com/2007/10/14/ciff_one_hundre.php#comment-1219686 Comments Mon, 15 Oct 2007 12:53:59 -0600 <p>My colleague saw Hallam Foe, not me. You, the Living wasn't bad at all, just a disappointment after Songs from the Second Floor.</p> http://chicagoist.com/2007/10/14/ciff_one_hundre.php#comment-1219662 http://chicagoist.com/2007/10/14/ciff_one_hundre.php#comment-1219662 Comments Mon, 15 Oct 2007 12:35:46 -0600 <p>Well it wasn't the "Osment" part of the equation that put me off, it was the "high school basketball crime thriller" part.

Looks like we both saw "Hallam Foe" and "You, the Living." And our opinions are flip-flopped!</p> http://chicagoist.com/2007/10/14/ciff_one_hundre.php#comment-1219653 http://chicagoist.com/2007/10/14/ciff_one_hundre.php#comment-1219653 Comments Mon, 15 Oct 2007 12:24:02 -0600 <p>Unlike you, I like Haley Joel Osment and had planned to see Home of the Giants (didn't quite get around to it, though, so I'm hoping it'll make the theatres or cable). It's interesting, Rob, that you have reviewed only one film that I saw. If you want to read my coverage: www.ferdyonfilms.com</p>
