    Time Event
    11:34a
    All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players
    More Dublin International Film Festival and less time to write about it.
    Started the day with The Good German starring George Clooney. Good film.

    Ended the day with As you like it another brilliant treatment of Shakespeare by director Kenneth Branagh. This may yet be my favourite film of the festival, excellent film, see it soon as you get the chance.

    Other commitments meant I didn't get to see Maggie Gyllenhaal starring in Sherrybaby but I expect she will make it to our cinema screens in due course. Princess, a Danish animated film (not to be confused with Princesses a Spanish language film also showing at the festival) was unfortunately cancelled due to delays sourcing the prints but may yet be shown towards the end of the festival, although I had bought tickets to see Princess it coincided with As you like it so events may yet work out in my favour. There are so many films to see I cannot possibly see them all but I will certainly try.
    Sunshine by director Danny Boyle (Trainspotting, 28 Days Later) had been cancelled before the festival even began and any reappearance seems highly unlikely from what little information I have gathered.
