Why did the Best of the Fest Live Action 2 become a program of Gay & Lesbian interest only films? Let's face it, not everybody - regardless of their sexual orientation- is interested in seeing 90 minutes of gay themed films. More importantly though, you are doing the film makers a disservice by SEGREGATING their films and not letting the best of them be shown to a wider audience. I think of all the great gay themed films I've seen through the years on the Best of the Fest day and it saddens me that you have made this programming decision.
Well, let's see: we present a "Films for Families" program at ShortFest. Does that mean we're "SEGREGATING" films that are only meant for families? Or does it mean those films may be meant for everyone, but be of particular interest to people with children? How about our "Sibling Stories" program? Do you think that program was meant only for people with brothers or sisters? Are we "segregating" films about brothers and sisters?
Relax, MussikLvr - nobody said that Best of the GLBT shorts are "a program of Gay & Lesbian interest only films", to use your phrase. And rather than sending GLBT-themed films to the back of the bus, we simply put together a group of the best of them from this year's ShortFest for all filmgoers to enjoy on Best of the Fest day. Just like the program of comedies showing at 6:00 at the Camelot. No slight to non-comedy lovers intended...
I am glad you take pride in what you write. This makes you stand way out from many other writers that push poorly written content. buy dvd last man standing season 6
