Saw TiMER

As some of you may (or may not know) the company I work for gives out tickets for events and stuff.

I haven't actually wrote about this stuff before but nevertheless it does happen.

The other week there was the Tribeca Film Festival and in order to decide what film to go to you put your name into a computerized lottery.

I won 2 tickets to see TiMER which I saw with my cousin Mandy. I didn't really expect much as it was an independent film and I didn't know anything about it.

When I got there, the lines were long and there was a long line of people waiting for tickets IF the primary people who already owned tickets didn't make it.

The Film was based upon a story that for a small nominal fee you could implant a device in your wrist that would light up and beep if you ever met your soul-mate. It also had a little device which would count down the number of days/hours till you meet your soul mate.

As you can imagine all kinds of problems occur as some people's TiMER's count out 30 some years before they meet their soul mate.

The question is asked? Do you wait 40 years for your soul mate? Do you take someone who likes you right now? And if you are already married to someone and you find out they are not your soul-mate what do you do then?

Also it seems you can fall in love with people who are not your soul mate as well.

Do you trust a little device in your arm?

The film turned out to be very good and the actresses and director spoke in front of the movie afterward and took questions. Both me and my cousin Mandy really liked the movie.

I'm not sure when/if you can see it as it doesn't have a distributor but based on how good the movie was I would be surprised if it wasn't picked up.
