57th San Sebastian International Film Festival Opening Ceremony and News


I did taped the fest Opening Ceremony and watch it yesterday. My review: Really Boring. But there were some highlights.

-Elena Anaya with a white/blondish hair! To me means that the filming of Habitación en Roma (Room in Rome) is OVER, which obviously are EXCELLENT news, as hopefully soon will be released or at least Julio Medem will give us a new trailer!

-Saffron Burrows, speaking some Spanish and introducing the section Zabaltegi New Directors where she’s the President of the Jury.

-Clips -many clips- from all movies in all sections.

One little thing to suggest organizers for next and following events, DO NOT USE such a high staircase that delays the show more and becomes not interesting and boring watching celebrities and guests walking down the stairs! (lol!).

Anyway if you wish to watch the opening ceremony video with 47+ minutes go here and do not forget to check sansebastianfestivaltv that has many videos available with versions in Spanish and English, so you can select the language of your choice.

One video I particularly suggest watching is the Press Conference for El Secreto de tus Ojos to learn a little more about this film that’s generating so much buzz.
