A love letter to Flyway
Let me say this first: this is a love letter about a festival that’s rejected me twice.
2011 Kickoff Gala- Film as art installation by Coleman Miller
No, not Sundance, South By, or the other big tables at the festival casino – we’re talking the mother of all indies, the mecca of the git-er-done’s, Flyway Film Festival, in mighty Pepin, Wisconsin. What? You haven’t heard of it? Well that’s fine. Move along. I want to keep it to myself.
I first learned about Flyway from a video Lucas McNelly posted of Rick Vaicius talking about his festival and the no-application fee. Seemed cute. Aw. No fees! They just want films. Should be easy to get in.
WRONG.
My Favorite short film ever.
Much mythology surrounds Claude Lelouch’s 8:40 masterpiece.
Who was the driver? Perhaps Lelouch himself.
Who was the woman? Lelouch’s then girlfriend.
One take, one shot? Yes.
As a film geek, who is also a sportscar geek, this is by far my favorite short film ever.
Enjoy!
