Sure there was the
Red State carnival and its tempest-in-a-teapot-outrage, and at about the same time there was a rather odd bit of film-goer outrage at
Lucky McKee's midnight premiere of
The Woman (which makes me excited for that one), but, really, the cool kids were at the Magnet/Alamo Karaoke Party where
The Host,
Mother,
Memories of Murder director
Bong Joon Ho belted out Billy Joel's Uptown Girl with a bottle of Stella. Now that is
Jury-Duty. You can bless or blame
Tim League for infecting the world-wide film festival circuit with the Karaoke bug, but either way: Video below.
