Thank you Seattle International Film Festival Audiences for the nice things you’re saying about Sita. I’m really touched, and wish I could have been there.
Update: this just in (scroll to last entry). Oh my goodness!
Props to my Seattle peeps

I just wanted to echo the positive feedback from Seattle. I saw your film at the festival and instantly fell in love. My husband and I especially loved your Indian version of the Greek chorus. We are telling everyone we know about it and I even went to every record store in the neighborhood looking for Annette Hanshaw’s CD!
I wish you the best of luck – from one indie filmmaker to another – and look forward to hearing good news about your film soon.
nice article! my friends emily and dereck went to see it and loved it.
See, what’d I tell you!?! 🙂 Have fun in Europe, and good luck!
And, just in…your film made the Top 10 in the Seattle Film Festival. Check it: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/movies/2004476383_siffmovies16.html
Seattle audiences also chose Nina Paley, for Sita Sings the Blues (USA), for the third spot in the SIFF 2008 best director write-in balloting.
Also, the “Fool Serious” unofficial organization of SIFF full series pass holders chose “Sita Sings the Blues” as having the best music of any film in the SIFF 2008 festival.
I didn’t see my own review in the list, and had to check why. It turns out I only had a three-line mini-review. I’ve expanded it into a full review:

Of the 85 films I managed to see during SIFF, it was one of my top two or three favorites.
