The FESTIVAL FEVER May miniseries is off and running, and you may have been wondering what we've got in store for our Excursion on the 2015 Telluride Film Festival. Since Telluride has no prizes (aside from the career tributes), we'll be coming up with our own (fake) jury for this juryless festival, and you get to take part!! On this totally definitely real jury (with guests/jury members TBA), we are reserving one spot for the Garys, with the results of this ballot going to represented you the listener in what films will ultimately be awarded!

Here's How It Works:

You will rate each film below on a scale of 1 (lowest rating) to 5 (highest rating). IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN A FILM, please rate that with a score of 0 (0 scores will be filtered out of deliberations to give all films a fair shot).
We will also asking you which film would be your choice for top prize.
We will also ask you for your top 3 favorite lead performances and supporting performances.

Here is a list of 25 films from that year's festival lineup and where you can stream them if you want to catch any films before voting (note: films that played the festival as revival screenings will not be eligible):
