Here's the student film I made that's closest to my heart, lol. This was about eight years ago. Well, there's actually one I like better, but it's a little personal and embarrassing. This one is super not personal, but I do actually like it:

That's the one that I like more, but is more personal and embarrassing. It's still on vimeo, but now it's hidden.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I'm still really bummed about having to pass on that Nic Refn/Cliff Martinez interview opportunity, but on the plus side, it looks like I'm going to start covering the Telluride and Sundance film festivals after I move to Colorado!

If you're going to Sundance, I suggest you book your room now. I'm only half-kidding.
I'd be going with the two guys who run the site I'd be working for, and they've done it multiple times already, so I think I'm covered.

I'm not usually one to wish death on people, but the people who create petitions to have reviews (which are often mild scores like a 6 or a 7) removed from online review aggregators probably just need to be shot.
