The Tree. Movie Review by Andriy Mishchenko

(VISA Screening Room)

Director Julie Bertucelli has taken a bit of a step back since 2003’s Since Otar Left. In this predictable production, Charlotte Gainsbourg puts in a strong performance, but she’s swimming upstream.
Rubber. Film Review by Andriy Mishchenko

Rubber, as you may have heard, is a horror flick with a telekinetic car tire in its lead role. It’s also a sometimes hilarious examination of the movie-making process and where the audience and suspense of disbelief fits in. It [...]

If you see Li Hongqi’s film, Winter Vacation, please come armed with lots of patience. It’s not a bore, but you need to wait for things to develop. The screening I was in had lots [...]

Review by: Andriy Mishchenko
Yesterday, I felt very lucky. I went to the Jonsi show, his first concert away from Sigur Ros. I’ll just start by saying it did not disappoint. If you have a chance to see him at the second show tonight (Apr 7) or later this week in Seattle, GO! I don’t want [...]
Some have tried to label Vancouver as a city with nothing fun or interesting to do. Well East of Main knows this ain’t true and is here to change that! There are so many amazing off-beat and mainstream things to do around town including festivals, rallies, underground parties and dances, and random people-powered events.
