This week on Operation Kino, we're yarning to the babbits, yay, and tellin' 'em the true-true, as we review the new film from Andy and Lana Wachowski and Tom Tykwer, Cloud Atlas. After that extra-long review segment we get into the fact that everyone has praised the editing of Cloud Atlas, but… wait? What's editing? And how can you tell it apart from directing and writing? Before any of that, though, there's a lightning round inspired by Halloween, plus tidbits, in which Patches snacks on oysters and talks about the Food Film Festival, Da7e wonders about the function of set visits after visiting the set of Mama, David declares The Comedy the best American film of the year, and Katey is all about another David favorite, Julia Loktev's The Loneliest Planet. We end, as always, with your lightning round answers for dessert.
