Banff Centre Film Festival

S got us tickets to the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity's Mountain Film Festival (there is also a book festival and photo contest, but they're not much to take on the road). The actual event takes place in Banff in the fall, and a selection of films are taken on the road.  In St. Louis, the festival was a two-night show at the Sheldon.

Note: I've linked to trailers and full films where I can find them.  Some of the films were edited for the Banff traveling show, so the link may not be exactly the same version we saw, but hopefully the feel for the movie is the same.

There was one other movie to close out the night, but I fell asleep!  It was late, I was sick, excuses, excuses!

If you want to see a nearly-complete listing of all the Banff films, they're here.

This was a great way to spend two evenings, and really made me want to go see some of the crazy things in this world!
