JL;DR SUMMARY Dina Fuchs-Beresin expresses her disappointment with the controversies surrounding the 25th Atlanta Jewish Film Festival (AJFF), particularly the Israeli Consulate General's withdrawal of support due to the involvement of a Muslim student juror who had criticized Israel. A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski. At least, that was the handle his lovin' parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude. Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
