It's been cool to follow your journey at the festival. I do agree that the Ticketmaster system + fees were puzzling and frustrating at best. I think labelling a second screening with premium pricing was a bad move that left many people feeling ripped off when the cast nor director didn't even show up for it.
Honestly for something like The Brutalist, where all the screenings were on film, I could get behind the labelling of them as premium. But for the most part, I do agree with you.

Thanks for sharing your experience, I missed the whole fest this year due to travel 🥲
