So I’m still working on putting all the pieces of life back together. It’s been a very difficult two weeks for me personally, and things haven’t really gotten much better. To make matters worse, the crown on my front tooth decided last Friday night would be a good time to pop off — thankfully it’sContinue reading “THE GOTHAMIST INTERVIEW: MAY DAY 1 – YOMAIRA REYNOSO”

So last Monday I posted how Tribeca was over and I should be back to posting more regularly. Then Monday and Tuesday, the world of my personal life sort of came crashing down around me, and I haven’t particularly been feeling like blogging much. There’s been a lot I’ve wanted to write about, too, butContinue reading “WE’RE JUST GOING TO INHALE AND HOLD OUR BREATH FOR A BIT AFTER ALL”

Well that was fun. Yes, the Tribeca Film Festival ended yesterday, and finally I can start to breathe again. Maybe even see some movies and watch some TV. (Yes, my job at the festival actually precluded me from seeing anything, until I finally had the chance to sit through the wonderful Favela Rising yesterday.) InContinue reading “AND … EXHALE!”

Hi everyone. So I wasn’t really able to keep up my hope of visiting this site at least a couple times a week and providing some content. I hoped to write about Sin City. I hoped to write about the end of Miramax (as we know it) more, and why everyone who owns Disney stockContinue reading “TRIBECA’S HERE … THAT’S WHY I’M NOT”

Thank GOD this week is over. Somehow, I always learn these lessons about how much I can handle, but when the opportunities arise to avoid these situations, I still take on everything. It’s a bad bad workaholic trait which I absolutely blame on my father and his side of the family. Cause, you know, geneticsContinue reading “THE GOTHAMIST INTERVIEW: APRIL DAY FIVE – THE WOMEN OF WET (SASHA EDEN & VICTORIA PETTIBONE)”

I know. You don’t really want to read my bitching and moaning every day about how hard it’s been to do this week’s series of interviews or how ridiculously busy I am at work. I’m sure you’re waiting anxiously to read what I thought about Sin City, the one movie I’ve actually managed to seeContinue reading “THE GOTHAMIST INTERVIEW: APRIL DAY FOUR – JON BLOOSTEIN”

One of the more interesting (that’s not really the right word, but I’m going to go with it) things about working at a film festival, especially Tribeca and especially in the kind of logistical position I occupy, is that you can spend weeks planning and preparing certain scenarios only to have it all go poofContinue reading “THE GOTHAMIST INTERVIEW: APRIL DAY THREE – ANNA E. HOUSLEY JUSTER”

Wow. I’m just really getting no sleep. Not good, you know? I was up until about 3 AM again last night transcribing the Gothamist Interview that will run on Thursday, and I still have more editing on the one that will run tomorrow. Oh, and how about the fact that Friday’s interview, as of now,Continue reading “THE GOTHAMIST INTERVIEW: APRIL DAY TWO – DAVID HASKELL”

You know what’s a really dumb idea? Thinking that less than three weeks before the start of the Tribeca Film Festival that I would have time to properly do a week of Gothamist Interviews. Even dumber? To think that I can accomplish this while my trusted partner (and more importantly, big time editor) is offContinue reading “THE GOTHAMIST INTERVIEW: APRIL DAY ONE – VINCENT SKELTIS”

It certainly wasn’t intentional. And I by no means want to pop my head in here every now and then to talk about how busy I am. That wouldn’t just bore you; it bores me too. Yet right now, it’s the truth. And it’s hard, you know? Because I have all this crap hopping aroundContinue reading “I BLINK AND TWO WEEKS GO BY”
