This restaurant, Nonna's in Staten Island, is one of the greatest jewels in NYC. I only went once and the experience really warmed my heart (and we ate A LOT). Watching this CBS Sunday Morning piece rekindles that joy. www.cbs.com/shows/video/...

Geminis always be extra #MetGala

submitted 1 day ago • 0 comments

The Met Gala with this year's theme of "Black Dandies" is such a delicious "f--k you" to all of the right wing anti-DEI bigots, I could eat it for dessert. Serve them, kings and queens! And come through @voguemagazine! www.youtube.com/watch?v=NW2o... #metgala2025

Time for me to hop on a zoom and start my work day. But #MetGala is going down in fashion, cultural and world importance like #TheBattleOfVersaille.

All of these #MetGala photos are aggravating my allergies. So much excellence.

I found out Sinners will be in theaters in Seoul in June. I will be shooting, BUT do not let me forget to run out, no matter how exhausted, and see this film. I am so amped. That and 28 Years Later which should (?) still be in theaters when I return to the US?

There was a rather charming trend in the 1910s to introduce the actor at the beginning of the film by showing them first in their street or evening clothes and then dissolving into the costume of their characters. Here we see recent stage import William S. Hart become a bandit in THE BARGAIN (1914).

The shock + disappointment when I told a shop owner in Seoul I was no longer on IG. She asked why. I doubt my Papago translator App really got my existential point across, but I tried. IG is the #1 way to connect w people when I travel. Closely followed by WhatsApp. I hope someone breaks up Meta

I'm doing hair/make-up tests next week and went down the Cinematography Rabbit Hole of watching vintage HMU tests. Landed with the Gone with the Wind test and watching Dame Hattie McDaniel, around 14:00m mark. I wouldn't mind doing a seance so I could chat with her. Chat and thank her.

Punk music is known for its raw, aggressive sound, edgy fashion and mosh pits. It’s also known for being predominantly white, but that's changed a lot in recent years. Resurfaced music from its earliest days underscores that punk has always been influenced and shaped by Black artists as well.

"Who’s The Big Dog at Linjiang Night Market? My 24 Hours in Taipei" It takes up too much energy to explain why, but I ended up visiting Taipei for the weekend. Thankfully, I am living in South Korea for a few months which makes this “Taipei Pop-in” possible.

The new Netflix docuseries, Turning Point: The Vietnam War, is a really fascinating, comprehensive look at the destruction, lies, corruption, and politics and effects of the "first television war," and the media that often risked their lives to bare witness to it.

Criterion has a war film curation this month. #TheLittleGirlFromHanoi is part of it. Many films that we’ve all seen multiple times and thankfully some new ones. Don’t ask why but I love war films. I’m painfully passive but I think war films are important

If I still taught a film class, I’d have a convo on propaganda film and the role of film to heal a community. Sometimes propaganda is so obvious. But other times, a film’s main purpose is to soothe the hearts of a community that feels damaged.

It’s a treat and sobering to watch films about the Vietnam War now that I’ve been there. #TheLittleGirlFromHanoi has some realistic doc style moments and others that are carefully composed. Intentional. More like a commercial than a narrative film.

This evening’s #nfotd is #TheLittleGirlFromHanoi (1974) by Hai Ninh. I’m watching on Criterion but the full film is avail on YT. “A young Vietnamse girl must find her lost family after her city was destroyed by US's bombing campaign in 1972.” Cinematography feels v new wave/neo-realism.
