Film Festival! It's a fun time to be in the #PonceyHighland/#L5P area of #Atlanta when the #ATLFF rolls around each spring (except for parking--YIKES). 🚫 The fest has moved through other venues including the Landmark and the Hollywood 24 (both previously featured here!) but in recent years they've settled into The Plaza and @7stages_atl as home bases, and those seem to work pretty well. 👍 This is the 40th year of Atlanta Film Festing, and it has a pretty good reputation. THE ARBALEST (featuring lots of #ATL talent) played here this week after a VERY well-received premiere at SXSW, and LIKE LAMBS (starring the kid who played Glen's friend on MAD MEN and the Asian kid from TWILIGHT) had its WORLD premiere last night! 🎥 As for my photo subjects, I'm featuring Star-Lord and a Lady #LEGO Racer to honor some cool stuff I'm enjoying this week. Lady Racer because SPEED SISTERS was a great doc about the only all-woman race-driving team in Palestine--you should see it! 🚗 Star-Lord because there's a screening of GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY tomorrow afternoon with James Gunn and Michael Rooker in attendance! THAT'S COOL, Y'ALL. Maybe I'll see you there? 👽 So what is your favorite ATLFF event ever, if you have one? I will always have fond memories of seeing JESUS CHRIST VAMPIRE HUNTER with a pal from Texas many years ago. That's a silly and entertaining movie. Totally worth it for the ending theme song alone. Meeting Bill Pympton last year was definitely another great moment in Festival history for this animation fan! 🙌 Get out and catch some of the remaining features if you can. It's a good one. # #weloveATL #atlantafilmfestival #atlantafilm #GOTG #gotgvol2 #StarLord #SPEEDSISTERS (at Atlanta Film Festival)

If you get the chance SEE THIS FILM!! It's a documentary called Speed Sisters and it's about an all women racing team in Palestine. Not the only female racers but the only female-only team in the Middle East (and probably one of few counting the rest of the world too, it's not a very female-fronted sport). They are so badass and the film is really good at showing it and also showing a side of life in Palestine that at least I don't get to see very often. Great music, fast cars, a lot of laughs - super inspiring to say the least! The film is only screening at festivals and separate screenings right now but there's plans for wider distribution online and on dvd later. #speedsisters #speedsistersfilm
