{Youssou N'dour: I Bring What I Love screens at the Seattle International Film Film Festival tonight, June 12, at 9:30pm and Sunday, June 14 at 1:30pm, both screenings at the Harvard Exit.}
Okay, here's the deal: SIFF live-music events are always amazing. Every time I run into someone who's been to one, they insist it's one of the best shows they've ever seen – so I feel compelled to plug this as a recommended Friday show.

Has SIFF saved the best for last, or is it scraping the bottom of the cinematic barrel? We'll soon find out, and I'll be in queue for these films.
Latest comment by: Amie Simon: "Here is the part where I admit that I was watching Denise Richards: It's Complicated last night, and it was the Sundance episode, so they showed Julie Davis on stage for the Q&A and I excitedly said: "That's the Director Chris interviewed!". Because I am 5. "
The generous folks at SIFF have given us 3 pairs of tickets to see Rain this Saturday, June 13 at SIFF Cinema, 7pm.
Sounds great, non? Director Maria Govan is expected to attend the screening too. If you want a pair, the drill is thus: email me (lulafortune at g mail dot com) saying you want ‘em, and I’ll reply and arrange a meet-up sometime between now and Saturday.
Latest comment by: Amie Simon: "Quickest giveaway EVER. All three pairs of Rain tix are gone you guys! Sorry. "
Director Marc Webb channels Cameron Crowe at his best – great conversation, lots of laughs and a killer soundtrack – with his feature debut, (500) Days of Summer. If this is where he's starting, I can't wait to see what he does next.
My Suicide features music from Rocky Votolato on its soundtrack (and I hear that he will be at the screening, along with the film's director, David Lee Miller). The film screens on Wednesday, June 10 at 9:30pm at Pacific Place. If you want to see My Suicide at SIFF, just e-mail tig@threeimaginarygirls.com before 9am on Wednesday, June 10 with "My Suicide" in the subject line and we'll notify you shortly thereafter if you've won tickets to the screening that night.
A comedy that makes you think as much as it makes you laugh is hard to come by, but Writer and Director Sophie Barthes has produced one that's nearly flawless for her first feature film.
