Sarah Palin: Grizzly Woman 07/03/2009
It's stunning to me, watching Sarah Palin resign, how much she reminds me of Timothy Treadwell, the titular Grizzly Man of Herzog's film. They have an amazingly similar naive and simplified sense of the world and their place(s) in it. Maybe it's an Alaska thing. You decide: Edit: As usual Josh Marshall nails it. He writes: Okay, we're getting our first indication of what happened. It seems like a colossal sulk on Palin's part, or perhaps better to say an effort on her part to ingeniously combine anti-liberal media bias agitation with Christianist politics by portraying herself as having been crucified by the liberal media. Said Palin, according to a reporter at the press conference, "You are naive if you don't see a full-court press on the national level, picking apart a good point guard." Juaneco Y Su Combo 07/02/2009

I didn't realize how much I liked this movie. This very 80s Dr. John cut doesn't hurt matters either. TSROAW at LA SHORTS FEST 06/25/2009

Highly recommended: Made in Britain, Alan Clarke's wonderfully disturbing 78 minute film of 1982 featuring a young Tim Roth. Here's the first 2 1/2 minutes. |
