AIFF 2013: For Real This Time: Wednesday Picks

This is a little easier than Thursday (tomorrow) which I posted already, by mistake.  Not quite as many choices.  You can check Thursday here.

Tonight's must see, so I've heard, is Vuelve A La Vida (Back To Life).  I got this mixed up with Juventud, which plays tomorrow.  The director, Carlos Hagerman is in town, I met him briefly this morning and got this photo.   Here's the description I could find about the movie:
"The love story between a top model from New York, a Mexican scuba diver and a shark."
The love story between a NEW YORK TOP MODEL, a scuba diver from Acapulco and a shark.

I'm headed for McConkey tonight, then to Vuelva A La Vida.

But the New World is a very fine movie that I highly recommend.  I wrote about it here.

Frozen Ground probably needs no introduction.  It's the big Hollywood movie, filmed here a couple of years ago.  I figure this will come to the regular theaters before too long, but the others won't.

Sorry this took so long.  I put up Thursday by mistake.  But at least that one's done now.
