There's no doubt this year's Olympia Film Festival will manage to attract a few more to its already substantial band of supporters. With an ambitious 10-day lineup spanning the ages of cinema, there literally is something for everyone - of any age.
The OFF looked deep into the past when building the 2011 festival, even inviting back a contributor to its own history. J.R. Baker finds himself in a sequel of sorts, back in the saddle again as OFF director after a 19-year absence. Baker compares his return to that other age-old travel metaphor: "It's like riding a bike. Once you get on ... after not riding it for awhile, you're good to go."
By now OFF's wheels turn so smoothly that Baker slipped into his former job without getting stuck in the gears.
