He sounds pretty bummed.

I enjoyed this!

whit stillman is a very youthful 60

flesh, the devil, and a wolf (wolf) (amateurist), Friday, 30 March 2012 06:32 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah, he didn't look that old at all.

nb I had to ditch most of the Q & A tonight but I saw the first bit. I wish I could have stuck around. Utopianism is a good entry point for this film, and that's what he was talking about when I left.

I'm going tomorrow, apparently! Me! To a film thing!

how did I get here? why am I in the whiskey aisle? this is all so (Laurel), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:52 (fourteen years ago)

I may go too

Literal Facepalms (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:54 (fourteen years ago)

I'll be there tonight and tomorrow.

Virginia Plain, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 20:11 (fourteen years ago)

I'm guessing Laurel means Brooklyn and VP Astoria?

Literal Facepalms (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:19 (fourteen years ago)

Ah, laurel should come to bk to see the whit in person. Omg, I just realized Chris Eigeman will be present tonight.

The Siren interviews Stillman

I believe Stillman was in both places, directors work it when stuff opens.

A fan of Big Deal on Madonna Street:

This was pretty good. Loved Greta Gerwig referring to Real McCoy's "Another Night" as a "golden oldie."

get me bloodied (Eric H.), Friday, 6 April 2012 12:04 (fourteen years ago)

i am very pro-gerwig, being the one person on ilx who really liked greenberg.

Nah, I loved Greenberg.

Cuba Pudding, Jr. (jaymc), Friday, 6 April 2012 13:02 (fourteen years ago)

whatever i disliked about greenberg, it had nothing to do w/ gerwig

max, Friday, 6 April 2012 13:03 (fourteen years ago)

indeed

nyt review is mostly positive.

scott seward, Friday, 6 April 2012 20:10 (fourteen years ago)

but its not a rave or anything.

scott seward, Friday, 6 April 2012 20:10 (fourteen years ago)

still, it makes you want to see it. if you read movie reviews in the nyt.

scott seward, Friday, 6 April 2012 20:11 (fourteen years ago)

same w/ new yorker review. loved greenberg, LOVE gerwig. stoked for this.

balls, Friday, 6 April 2012 23:08 (fourteen years ago)

Once I got accustomed to its...idiosyncracies...I really liked it.

Even though that scene reminds me of Fat Girl and that's weird.

the one where the girl is raped by the guy who kills her mother and sister?

well i missed something 'scandalous'

World Congress of Itch (Dr Morbius), Monday, 9 April 2012 03:37 (fourteen years ago)

luv that pic, looks like LD was about to go full "g"

Raymond Dubious Davies (C. Grisso/McCain), Monday, 9 April 2012 04:18 (fourteen years ago)

I enjoyed watching it in the same way I might enjoy watching Mean Girls and reading Myra Breckenridge at the same time. what most excited me though is the hope that stillman might become active again, which I guess means I didn't think it was great. he introduced the film so that was neat (sadly, he is not quite a whit stillman character himself), and It's definitely fun if you don't work too hard trying to resolve the politics of the thing.
