Secret Screening: CLOUD ATLAS at Fantastic Fest

Andy Wachowski and Lana Wachowski at Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas in September 2012.

You all know that the movie CLOUD ATLAS opens today, yes? It’s all about time and souls and spirits who find their way into your life in one way or another.

After a surprise screening of the movie at found its way into my life during Fantastic Fest, I couldn’t help thinking that in my own life, many of the people who seem like they should be in your life have a fairly unique way of introducing themselves.

Oftentimes such people enter your life by first catching you up on the major details of their story so far–sort of like filling you in on the details of a movie where you stopped in the middle.

As for the movie, go see it!

My only regret about that screening–being too shy to talk to Lana Wachowski when I saw her sitting in the Highball after the screening.  If I hadn’t been so shy, I would have told her that she has great pink hair!
