▷ SIFF's 50th
SIFFTY years of surprising cinema
If the Seattle International Film Festival were a person, we’d have thrown it a surprise party for its 50th birthday. Instead, we threw it a surprise campaign to celebrate the decades of film surprises it’s given us.
In addition to our “film goo” festival ad, we made a few on-theme bumpers to show at SIFF before the films.
Surprising Cinema Bumpers
Of the many disgusting and disturbing surprises in Trainspotting, a film from the 22nd SIFF, this one takes the cake, so to speak.
It shall henceforth be known in all the land that Aragorn being Isildur’s heir is one of the most surprising plot twists in all of cinema. So it is written.
And then there’s this surprise from Nashville, the unavoidable kind that gets worse and worse until it’s so bad it’s funny. Even this is worth celebrating.
