Hey Look a Title!

So I why I never clicked on add title is beyond me. But there it is. I have titles now. Sorry there is no news right now. I promise I will return in a few days and each post will now coming with its own title. Clever, huh. See ya soon.

Sorry. I seem to be more distant from this blog recently but I honestly don't mean to be. In the coming weeks I plan on being a lot more active in it. As I said before, making my music blog has made me more interested in writing again. Within the next week, you should see a review of the latest Magnolia Pictures blu-ray release The Signal. I just finished it tonight and I have to say it is quite different than what I was expecting which is not necessary a bad thing. Also on the way I should have some cool things to say about something I will be doing early next week. What is that you ask? Well, my buddy Bo is shooting another short film and yours truly is going to be a Grip/Production Assistant. I am super excited. He is shooting this one on 16mm film I believe should be one hell of a experience. Lots more on this next week.

Man, creating that music blog -yes I am plugging A Week at the Most - has really inspired me to write more so I figured I would also jump on here and write a few words before heading out to see the film The Strangers with some friends. I stumbled upon an extremely well written blog entitled and The House Next Door just had to eleborate. The person who writes the page was fortuate enough to make it to Cannes this year and brought me great news that I was hoping for and one bit of news I refuse to believe.

For starts he claims that Woody Allen's latest Vicky Cristina Barcelona is his return to form and very well maybe his closest to the director's masterpiece Annie Hall (one of my personal favorite films...ironically I am not a big Woody Allen fan at all). In case you are wondering, the film stars Penelope Cruz, Javier Bardem, and Scarlett Johansson. Second, he also proclaims that Charlie Kaufman's directorial debut Synecdoche, New York is a complete mindfuck and a total masterwork. Great news to hear figuring I am extremely excited for both films and each are on my must see of the year list.

Unfortunately another film on the list is Blindless, the new film by Brazillian director Fernando Meirelles and he states that the film is an utter disappointment. I just can't take his word for it. I really can't. He does call City of God and The Constant Gardener visually appealing but ultimately shallow films and I believe the exact opposite towards those films so maybe there still is some hope.
