Best Film Society Ever

Well, maybe not the best, since there have been a lot of good Film Society screenings, but it's certainly the most memorable I've been a part of. I thought we had a lot of people for the late screening last week, and there were easily more than twice as many in Boliou 104, which made it that much more full.

The real excitement, though, came when the projector and DVD player shut off with about 15 minutes left in the film, because apparently you can't use the system in that room after 11 pm. Since the controls up front were locked, it took a while for somebody to get up and find the light switch so we weren't in total darkness. A riot was averted when security agreed to open Olin 149 for us, since the other screening had finished in there.

It was great to watch the mass exodus from one lecture hall to the other. Hopefully this will keep Film Society in people's minds for the next two weeks and perhaps even next year. It was also great that we actually got to finish the film, which I'd highly recommend.
