Wow, time has flown by this week as it usually does when you have a million things to do. Hmm, where to start. First, our serial "Masher" has been delayed due to reshoots. Apologies but it will be up soon, promise.
-Sujewa has posted a long interview w/ Barry Jenkins - writer/director of the new film Medicine for Melancholy. The interview digs into some "big ideas" :) connected to the movie. Check it out:
- I just saw Olivier Assayas' 5 minute short for the Paris Je T'aime compilation (w/ Maggie Gylenhall) and it was pretty good. The lovely, lovely Manohla Dargis reviews his lastest "Boarding Gate" in the NYTS.
