Missed MSPIFF? Film fest is playing the 'best of fest' this week
The Minneapolis-St. Paul International Film Festival called cut on an impressive run on Sunday with a screening of Singing Back the Buffalo and a handful of other films.
It's a marathon, with hundreds of movies and screenings running throughout the day for nearly two weeks. Unless you drained your PTO, you probably missed some great films.
