Stop Hurting My City

Two movies are coming out soon and I must protest. Both I Am Legend and Cloverfield show my beloved New York City either dead and abandoned or in the process of being torn into bits by a giant movie monster for a new generation of moviegoers.
While I admit to wanting to see an update on […]

Tofu the Vegan Zombie

A few of my favorite things rolled into one animated short:

zombies
a monkey
tofu
vegans

I’m not vegan, still struggling with eggs and certain cheeses, but regardless, the idea of a vegan zombie has long been an obsession of mine.
Zombies are hot.

Go for the movie. Stay for the tofu.

Two Films: NO END IN SIGHT and THE DEVIL CAME ON HORSEBACK

It was a rainy day in NYC today, so I went to see some serious films to match the mood of the city: NO END IN SIGHT and THE DEVIL CAME ON HORSEBACK. Neither of these are feel-good films. But they are both essential and you should watch for them when they open near you.
NO […]

“…and we have declared war on tyranny and aggression.”

“…and we have declared war on tyranny and aggression.”
President Lyndon Johnson said those words in Errol Morris’ devastating film The Fog of War.
“Mr. McNamara, you must never have read a history book.”
The parallels between the war in Viet Nam and the war in Iraq are obvious and heartbreaking.
Who is going to end the tyranny and […]

“Homosexual Panic is Hot…and Funny” courtesy of Kevin James and Adam Sandler

I saw this on 3rd Avenue (I think) in the East Village tonight (I “think” because my memory is lacking). I remember when I first learned of this project. My head and heart went THUD. I was disappointed to see how things have just not changed that much since films like “Zorro the Gay […]

Goodnight, New York, Goodnight

When I moved to New York City three years ago, I had little in mind other than to disappear. My wife Siri died in April 2003 and I spent the following year trying to kill myself indirectly via substance abuse and then cleaning up my act by going sober. In February 2004 a friend of […]

As seen in the LES: HBO Voyeur Project

I was wandering today around the LES and Chinatown. I had lunch at Buddha Bodhai, a very practical and yummy vegetarian restaurant down at the end of Mott Street. I was looking for “Apt. for Rent” signs. I’m out of my Bed-Stuy place in two months and it’s time to start looking for my next […]

“Once” and Glen Hansard

Last December I went with my then-girlfriend to see Damien Rice and his band play at the Beacon Theater here in NYC. There were two opening acts, but the one I remember, the one that impressed me very much that night, was led by Glen Hansard. I wasn’t familiar with his work, although I have […]
