I like most movies when I first see them. Not a flaw it would seem, except while at Sundance, where I’m seeing 2-4 movies a day. And, the very lifeblood of festivals seems to be picking something apart afterward.
Do I appear a bit naïve when I say “I liked it”? Maybe. But, at the time it’s true. I have an emotional attachment to each story…and with the emotional experience, it takes a while for me to articulate the emotions into words. That’s not to say I don’t see its flaws in films or have critiques. I just suspend them for the duration of the movie and it takes a while after the credits are done rolling for my critical nature to bubble back up.
Once my critical nature returns, I can tear apart a film with the best of them. And, I’m not quite proud of that.
