A friend and I went to the Clinton Street Theater to see a screening of a local indie film, The Auteur. The film is about a “past his prime” director of hard-core porn movies who is trying to recapture his past stature.

The writing was great, and the acting dead on. This was only the second public showing of the film, and there is still some work to be done on the color balance across the clips and the tone of the sound track. But the writing is sharp and the acting dead on. And the familiar shots of Portland made me smile.

I really enjoyed this movie, and I’m looking forward to seeing the final, finished product. When it hits a regular run, I heartily encourage you to check it out.

Hmm, second porn-related movie in a row I’ve seen at the CST. What’s up with that?
