Nisennenmondai opened for Battles last night at the new Emo’s East.
1. Battles put on a stellar show. I’m fell madly in love with the guitar/bass player Dave Knonopka. Sadly, he’s married. But whatever, a girl can dream…
2. Nisennenmondai is a band consisting of three Japanese girls (see video). Watching the drummer play was unreal. I don’t think I’ve ever...

THE ONLY MUSIC WORTH LISTENING TO (WHEN YOU'RE 15)
Inspired by the greatest radio station in the country, 93.5FM in Los Angeles, I’ve created a series of one hour old school rap and r&b mixes… songs from 1993 - 2001 that remind me of running wild in the suburbs of Washington, DC. This is the first of many.

my favorite IMDB review of THE PLEASURE OF BEING...
While looking up the technical specs for The Pleasure of Being Robbed, I came across this gem of a review. Now take everything that ‘ranndino’ says, invert it, and you’ll have exactly why this is a great film.

Unfortunately I had the displeasure of watching this schlock last night. My girl and I like indy movies, so after reading a blurb...

REVERSE SHOT'S INTERVIEW WITH THE DARDENNE...
Tragic Destinies An Interview with the Dardenne Brothers By Damon Smith
Late for an interview, Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne amble out of an elevator with a bemused, nonchalant air, smiling politely through introductions. It’s May, and they’re in New York to promote the release of their latest film, Lorna’s Silence, and to participate in Q&As for the Film Society of Lincoln Center’s...

SENSES OF CINEMA: CATHERINE BREILLAT
I haven’t yet seen all of Breillat’s films, but I’m working my way through them slowly. Each one is a masterclass with required reading and watching of the films that inspired each of hers. This essay not only sheds a bit of light on the themes found in her work, but accurately describes what I hope to do with my own films (in my own way of course).

I spend my days on off-hours building schedules, organizing shotlists, and helping with logistics. I work 12 + hour days during production running the set, putting out fires, calling roll, and facilitating between crew and the director.
I live in one room in someone else’s house that I pay rent to. All of my stuff lives in this room. I cannot afford my own place. My credit...

lil poundcake (snl does it again)
an email from Benjamin Marra
While in New York a few weeks ago, I told fellow Five Leaves regular/friend Ben Marra over breakfast that DRIVE was spectacular (having seen it the night before at Nitehawk Cinema)…but I would have liked to see what Tarantino could have done with it. It turns out that Ben is not a fan of Tarantino…and by not a fan I mean straight up hates the man and his work. ANYWAY, I told Mr. Marra...
