More views of - or before - Cambridge Film Festival 2013

17 October
When saying to Chris last night that I couldn't give Le Week-End a 6, but I couldn't give it an 8, a thought-process began that went beyond a 15-point scale (where one could, at least, have a genuine mid-point) :
I unleash, as Paul Bowles might do, the 102-point scale, inspired by whisky's Jim Murray and his Whisky Bible...
For said Week-End, it would be thus (each rated out of 17, 17 x 3 = 51, x 2 = 102)
76 = S : 13 / A : 15 / C : 11 / M : 12 / P : 13 / F : 12
S = script
A = acting
C = cinematography
M = music
P = pacing
F = feel
Mid-point of scale (all scores out of 17) = 9
The rating is based on a studio version, or the director's cut...
Thoughts, comments, insults welcome - with this result, almost a percentage, the film wasn't a 6, but less close to a 7 than it would otherwise have had to be

Unless stated otherwise, all films reviewed were screened at Festival Central (Arts Picturehouse, Cambridge)
A bid to give expression to my view of the breadth and depth of one of Cambridge's gems, the Cambridge Film Festival, and what goes on there (including not just the odd passing comment on films and events, but also material more in the nature of a short review (up to 500 words), which will then be posted in the reviews for that film on the Official web-site).
Happy and peaceful viewing!
