This past week I got three CD's that are great. If you haven't seen Garden State, I would recommend seeing it. The soundtrack is really good as well. With artist like Coldplay, Zero 7, Frou Frou, Thievery Corporation, Remy Zero, Cary Brothers, Colin Hay, The Shins, and others. I also got Aimee Mann's Lost in Space which came out in 2002; a good album. The third one was Travis' The Invisible Band. Similar, but better than their first album The Man Who. I would recommend checking all three of these albums out.

Sometimes I worry that I've lost the plot. My twitchin' muscles tease my flippant thoughts. I never really dreamed of heaven much until we put him in the ground, but it's all I'm doing now - listening for patterns in the sound of an endless static sea. ~ Conor Oberst
This site is now (mostly) an archive of my writing on film from November 2004 - May 2008. I will link to my articles elsewhere and post the occasional Twitter review.
Film Index
Looking for a particular film? Use the Index. I rank films from 1-7, looking for good and well told stories about what it means to be human.

We are lonesome animals. We spend all of our life trying to be less lonesome. One of our ancient methods is to tell a story begging the listener to say-and to feel- ‘Yes, that is the way it is, or at least that is the way I feel it.’ You’re not as alone as you thought. —John Steinbeck

I think Lost in Space is one of the most consitantly impressive albums I've ever purchased. Mann is a fantastic songwriter, and while lots of her stuff sounds alike, too much of a good thing is a great thing. Right?
