News:: The 300 Week 16: 2018 Tribeca Film Festival Critic's Notebook (Part 1)

Hey there, gang, and welcome back to The 300, a recurring feature on my foolish quest to watch 300 movies in theaters in the year 2018. I’ll be watching new releases, classics, hidden gems, and festival films to experience the wide world of cinema in all its forms. I hope there’s something here for you to enjoy and share as well.

As always, there are three rules for The 300:

  • The movie must be at least 40 minutes long, meeting the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ definition of a feature film.
  • I must watch the movie at a movie theater, screening room, or outdoor screening venue.
  • While I can watch movies I’ve seen before 2018, I cannot count repeated viewings of the same film in 2018 multiple times.

The 2018 Tribeca Film Festival is in progress and runs until Sunday. I've been able to catch 15 films in the opening days. It would have been more, but I needed sleep and time to finish some other work. Jesse Lab and I will have more reviews out by next week, so keep checking back with Flixist and our Tribeca 2018 coverage.

Right now, I am tired, drinking coffee, and trying to finish this before heading in for another long day of movie watching, including three movies at the festival followed by a screening of Avengers: Infinity War.

It's raining, my feet are soaked, and my blazer smells funny.

And so, onward.
