Film Friday Weekly Roundup – The nobody puts PCF in the corner edition.

It’s been a trying week, ya’ll! PCF was kaput all last weekend, due to technical difficulties, meaning Pretty Clever Film Gal couldn’t precompose her brilliant thoughts to dole out a miserly pace for the week. And then, having nothing to do with movie, stuff went sideways. And now here we are. It’s Friday. I would probably feel completely exhausted, and burnt out, and done with it all if not for Capitolfest! Yep, that’s where I be. So if you’re wondering why there’s a Dirty Dancing reference in this post title, read on! If not, read on anyway – there’s other stuff. Happy reading and happy viewing (though not as good as mine if you’re not also at Capitolfest)!
