Odds and Ends and Odds



A great fake interview with Cormac McCarthy at End of Books:

"ME: Hey Cormac, nice to meet you, I'm so happy you came!

CORMAC: All men are one man and their meetings or lack of meetings come about unbidden though they may be."

A great real interview with me and Argentine director Lisandro Alonso at The Rumpus:

ME:
Do you pay attention to more mainstream cinema?

Alonso: I know it exists. My father and brothers don’t give a shit about my films.

Leo McCarey´s Divine Tragicomedies

While I´m off gallivanting in Barcelona, here´s something to read. It´s my first article for the Dennis Lim-helmed Moving Image Source, about Leo McCarey´s underseen 30s greats, Ruggles of Red Gap and Make Way for Tomorrow. If you don´t read the article, you should see the movies. I won´t mind.
