Do we know how to pick 'em, or do we know how to pick 'em?!?

Yeesh, are we ever having good luck with the films we pick at festivals! Hot Docs announced their award winners today, and the audience price went to Street Fight [my review]. While we didn’t rate it as highly as Murderball, it was terrific and a worthy winner.

One minor regret: the winner for best first documentary was The Devil’s Miner, which we were supposed to see but couldn’t because I had Arcade Fire tickets. And while I wouldn’t have passed up that concert for anything, it’s too bad that we had to miss this documentary; sounds like it was a good one.
