Today starts a week long run for the 2009 documentary Videocracy at St. Anthony Main, brought to you by MN Film Arts. The film takes a look at politics and celebrity worship in modern Italy, in hopes of shining some light on the country's recent troubles (don't know what I'm talking about, then just look at this wikipedia page highlighting prime minister Berlusconi's controversies for starters).
Boy how you've changed, Italy! I remember when the likes of Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn would stroll along your sidewalks, eating gelato while running away from responsibilities... Simpler times, those were.
