[Never Cursed]

Was not aware of this until ten minutes ago, but apparently the Poland-based American Film Festival allows you to rent a bunch of titles digitally if you use a VPN set to Poland and can configure the payment properly. I post it here because among the titles that will be up for rental starting November 5 is Paul Schrader's Oh, Canada, which will get only a very small theatrical release in most of the English-speaking world. Apparently they've been doing this for a while, and I'm curious if this festival may inadvertently be the source for a lot of stuff on backchannels. The runtimes appear short by a bit for most(?) of the movies, but I'm not sure if that's somehow PAL speedup. If you hit the auto google translate, it's funny to see how some of the titles are rendered in Polish
