Sascha's very cute babies
I was a huge fan of Sascha Paladino's doc THROW DOWN YOUR HEART which premiered at SXSW in 2008. Since then he's had a couple of twins. Very cool to see this film he made in connection with Focus' new doc Babies.

ELLE Film Critic Karen Durbin's Postcard From Austin
Not that I'm going to post all my work clippings here, but it is a convenient scrapebook and filing system of sorts for some favorites. Loved this

Plastic Bag By Ramin Bahrani
I'll totally post this too. Love this film - directed by the extremely talented Ramin Bahrani, voiced by the great Werner Herzog. We were delighted to screen Plastic Bag at SXSW 2010.

Tiny Furniture in the NYT- just one of SXSW 2010 highlights
I don't keep this blog anymore, well, certainly not like I used to too. It was a little space for writing practice and personal musings. Now I'm in a job with a public component, and lots of eager eyes with their own agendas. But occasionally, it's still a worthy parking space. So I'm happy to note this here: Young Filmmaker's Search for Her Work is Rewarded, by David Carr.
It's a terrific piece, about a terrific film, by a wonderful new filmmaker, that on top of everything, exposes one of the best components of SXSW Film - the creative crossroads where filmmakers really do get to meet and mix it up with one another and return or even evolve elsewhere, that much the stronger.

Barbie parts jewelry
Found this via a tweet from Roger Ebert @ebertchicago strangely enough. Fantastic! Really illustrates how so much of art is just a different way of organizing in the world. Talk about seeing with fresh eyes! Love these images.
