Ahh Let The Right One In. I've been waiting to see this movie. Awesome.

It's neat that The Fall will get a second chance to shine in C-U (it played early this summer at Boardman's). Kind of interesting because Ebert selected The Cell (also by Tarsem Singh) for last year. I wonder how often that happens . . . And if Singh will be in attendance again.
