Too busy to write anything here, but allow me to recommend the following:
- Writers on drugs! Film in Focus talks with Rick Moody about drug movies. No hats on the bed.
- "Chick. Chicka-Chickaaaaah." A John Hughes* memoriam-as-corrective by the Globe's Wesley Morris. Oh, yeah.
- Related: John Hughes... and Preston Sturges?
- Thanks to Cineaste, finally, a piece on Anna Broinowski's stupefyingly engrossing doc, Forbidden Lie$.
- Holy Steve Buscemi doing performance art in an abandoned subway station! A consideration of Scorsese's Life Lessons.
- "By the way, Julia Child came and said we had the best popcorn in Boston."A profile of former Coolidge Corner Theatre owner Justin Freed.
- The Last Days of Disco is out! Celebrate by hearing Whit Stillman read "Cocktails at Petrossian."
That should hold you. I've been thinking about homonyms and horses. Back soon.
*Extra: Download The Dream Academy's instrumental cover of the Smiths "Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want." Lord knows...
