Let me show you my shorts...

Welcome to my shorts. This is not a rambling post like most of my work but rather a quickie, though God knows I prefer LONGIES... Ah, what were we talking about?? Oh, yes, posts... A few quick points of interest that are either too convoluted or just not deserving of an entire post. Like little gems that you find that are worth remembering but not worth changing your life over. This is a new segment and I hope you like it.

I saw a wonderful film last week called "Whatever Works". This film is really a blast (at least I enjoyed it). Woody Allen wrote it some 30 years ago and Larry David from Curb Your Enthusiasm has breathed some great new life into it. JC says, "Check it out..."



I saw Duncan Jones' "MOON" this weekend. For those of you who don't know, he is David Bowie's son. The film borrows from some of the greatest films in the genre: 2001: A Space Odyssey, Solaris, even a little Invasion of the Body Snatchers. A very intense and believable first project for Jones.



Yours truly interviewed the director and the lead actor of a local Dallas film entitled "FISSURE" this last Tuesday. I got my screening copy the night before and have been trying to catch up with my review ever since. I'll post it sometime tomorrow, Saturday the 26th. I'll also be posting the interview in video later next week. Until then, here's the trailer and some press off of YouTube. I hope you enjoy it...





And, after a sweltering weekend of no AC, the compressor at my apartments is once again fixed and it's starting to cool down. Fucking finally.

OK, gotta run. My friend Hunter Sullivan is singing at the Mansion tonight and I'm meeting a group of people there and for dinner before hand. Yes, I know, I know, but even enigmas need a little socializing. Have a great Friday and see you soon.
