Greetings from Colgate University, which is awash with inconvenient construction, sub-par dining hall cuisine, and sleep-deprived seminarians here to watch the program guest curator Dennis Lim created. First, a list of the screenings thus far. Then, perhaps some catty, gossipy color commentary in a separate post.
[Aside: Dennis had considered doing a program called Duration, which personally I think would have been awesome and likely devolved into revolt and passed in to legend.]

Part of the way Flaherty works is that none of the films are announced in advance, so as to present them to seminarians without preconceptions. However, given that Zhao Dayoung is here and we're starting the evening screening 30 minutes early, the smart money's on Ghost Town. More TK
