In a daring move, the Montreal Film Festival has completely snubbed every American film in competition this season, according to Yahoo Movies. I actually think that’s a good practice that more festivals should start implementing, if only to accentuate a healthy cinematic provinciality. I don’t mean exclusionary tactics, but more that when we go to Toronto, for example, we can rest assured that the films we’ll be seeing are actually Canadian. In fact, if more international film fests only played home-grown pictures, there could possibly be the creation of a sort of film tourism. Like if films could take the place of monuments: nice Gaudi, but, how about that new Almodovar?
