Lee Clow At Ground Zero of California Cool: Think Different


DJMG: not just a purveyor of feet-tapping beats, but a published author as well. Excellent piece by an even more excellent human being.

If you don't take money, they can't tell you what to do

On Tuesday I saw Bill Cunningham New York at the Nuart. The Nuart is a funny, one-screen theatre that shows independent films, and great selection of hits and misses from the past on Fridays at midnight; their Spring 2011 calendar includes a documentary about searching for mass graves in Chile, and The Muppets take Manhattan. Something for everyone!

I really enjoyed BCNY as a profile of a quirky guy with strong thoughts on fashion, ethics, and material frivolity. As Mike will attest, you do not need to have any interest in fashion to enjoy the film. If you are like me, you will cry intermittently, and laugh a lot too.




I strongly believe that one of the best parts of seeing an independent movie in a small theater is watching the wacky trailers that you can only find in that environment. Here are two of my favorite trailers from this movie (I am sparing you the one with the surprise goat birth):

Robyn at Club Nokia Nov. 17 2010

The Robyn show was fun despite a poor performance by the Club Nokia staff. Robyn was wearing what appeared to be platform Timberlands and Haruki Murakami leggings. Those wacky Swedes!

I can't find any video from her show, but this is footage from her surprise guest appearance at Royksopp last year.



If Robyn made an exercise video I would buy 10.
