DVDebuts: BEN X
Just a reminder/note that BEN X makes its DVD debut tomorrow, Tuesday, March 10 -- from Film Movement. Although it's a movie of which I was not overly fond, it has its good points and reasons for a viewing. In my interview with its writer/director Nic Balthazar, I did learn some interesting facts that made the film resonate a bit more strongly. So... your move.
Thanks, Ralph (or Ruth, which is the name at bottom). Whichever: I am always happy to hear from readers. Where are you based, by the way -- U.S., Europe, or elsewhere? That's always interesting to learn. And have you seen Ben X? If so, tell us what you thought of it.
