I just heard an online NPR interview about college movies and their development (Hat tip to Keith Martel for directing it my way). I've blogged about this before on the higher education blog. Recently I've been listening to more pop music, such as The Fray (Ben Folds-ish) and Daniel Powter (James Blunt-ish). I also discovered a rapper, M1, from the NPR music podcast. Every week itunes has a free download, I'd recommend checking it out. Any other music I should be listening too? (The grammar is on purpose:-).

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
