The 12th Annual Philadelphia Film Festival Poll

Before you go into each film at the festival, you're handed a ballot. After you've seen the film, you can rate it by tearing the box on the ballot that corresponds with your choice. (In my diary, I'll let you know how I voted for each film.) The votes are then counted and the films with the highest overall audience ratings are declared "Favorites" and are re-screened in the last few days of festival.

The possible ratings are as follows:

• Excellent
• Very Good
• Good
• Fair
• Poor
