Wes Anderson movies are the quintessential expression of everything white. The characters are tennis players, oceanographers, playwrights, psychiatrists, anthropologists, prep school students and other characteristically “white†jobs. More then that, they are all sissies and have emotional problems and dress in goofy bright colors. Yet it’s okay because Wes Anderson’s movies are magnificent. Now there […]

Last weekend, I went and watched Oliver Stone’s new epic look at Bush’s presidency. It is a far more gentle and human film than I anticipated, but remains wholly enjoyable. If there is one fault I could find with that film, it would be that I already knew most of the zany plans and infighting […]

Caylee’s mother, Casey Anthony has been arrested […]
A truly scary place!!! The other night I had the opportunity to participate in a radio show, a round table about book reviewing and the publishing industry as a whole.
