Cineppets: Does this sound too cutesy?


I've just coined this word- it's a cross between Cine and Snippets. I don't know if I like it or not, but I thought I would put it up on the blog and see how it looked. Let me know what you think. Either this is the coolest thing since JLo or it belongs in the dumpster with Bennifer. Thanks.

Onto another Cine Snippet (or Cineppet):


"Family Reunion"
Godir Gestir, dir; ICELAND; 20 mins
Reviewed at RIIFF 2007

What at first appears to be a predictable story ends with a sweet twist. New York-based lesbian Katrin returns to her native Iceland for her grandfather's birthday carrying a secret that she doesn't know how to share. This is a tidy little film about love and acceptance.
