Rio International Film Festival 2008

The 10th Rio de Janeiro International Film Festival (Festival do Rio) will take place from Thursday 25 September through Thursday 9 October 2008. Festival do Rio, which first took place in 1999 as a result of the merger of Brazil’s two largest film events, Rio Cine Festival (founded in 1984) and Mostra Banco Nacional do Cinema (founded in 1988), is Brazil and South America's largest film festival and industry event. It receives massive media attention throughout Brazil and much of South America. Over 300,000 tickets were sold at the 2007 festival to the Brazilian public and overseas visitors. 380 films were screened from 60 countries at 30 venues around Rio de Janeiro, including on Copacabana Beach where the festival headquarters is located. The 2007 festival witnessed nearly 100 Latin American premieres and 18 World Premieres, including that of the Brazilian film Tropa de Elite (Elite Squad), which won the "Golden Bear" at the 2008 Berlin Film Festival, and Mike Newell's Love in the Time of Cholera, which closed the festival. China was the honoured "Country in Focus" in 2007. In 2008 that honour will go to the United Kingdon.

The Dark Knight

Have you seen "The Dark Knight"? They say Heath Ledger's performance as "The Joker" is amazing. Sadly, he died of an accidental overdose a few months ago, before the film was released. Some people think he should get a posthumous Oscar nomination. What's your opinion? Vote on the poll!

Here's a trailer of The Dark Knight. Comment away!
