Apropos of that remark about the films in NC 20 seeming "too familiar": the percentage of films screened in previous festivals has definitely spiked with this one. 21 of 24 films have been shown in earlier NC Bay Area shows (88%), a figure that blows away the previous record in NC 16 (13 of 24 in that series, or 54%). Only KEY LARGO, CALL NORTHSIDE 777 and ALL MY SONS are festival premiers this time...
