Thanks to IFC’s Independent Eye I have now seen my favorite film of 2009. David O’Reilly’s PLEASE SAY SOMETHING won the Golden Bear for short films at Berlin this year. It’s about ten minutes long but packs a wallup of emotion, innovation, and experimentation into those ten minutes. My day has been made.
Splendid times indeed that we can get something like this — but this is a case where I only like the version that comes intact with the happy ending.
I would place “This Is Just To Say” on the top of my list for favorite poems and those things that have influenced me. That poem taught me how to look at the world differently, to see beauty in the mundane, and love even in the folly.

I watched graphic artist & writer Dean Haspiel on the Artist To Artist series that BRIC has this morning. In a lot of ways Dean is responsible for my making American Splendor. Back before he was the recognized great artist he is today, he was our receptionist on The Ice Storm. As we both shared a love for underground comics, it was only a matter of time that Harvey Pekar came up. The years went by and Dean did some drawing for Harvey and told him and Joyce of my dream of making an American Splendor movie. One night, late as it was, my phone rang. Joyce was on the other end and my journey began.
Seth has done a lot of great portraits and whole bunch of the indie film scene. You should check them all out but here’s a nice taste to get you started.
I love how the internet has redefined what a trailer is and what a trailer isn’t. Post modern times indeed.
Wow. 1965. Germany. Four American GI’s shave the tops of their heads and give in to that delicious beat. The first punk band?
