Your Mother

Glass, a Portrait of Philip In 12 Parts
Saw this at Full Frame Film Festival. Wonderful portrait of a man whose music I admire more than anybody else’s. It wasn’t the standard documentary on an artist where the film is dedicated in making the subject look grander than they are. The Scott Hicks film is quite intimate, I never realized Glass was a closet Buddhist (he denies it). The filmmaker and the artist doing bring a certain humility to their tasks. Both practice their art because it intrigues them.

No video but WTF! Why is Obama silent about this?
We post videos here but I cannot believe this has not gotten any press coverage. Michael Moore reveals this little tidbit:
Finally, I want to say a word about the basic decency I have seen in Mr. Obama. Mrs. Clinton continues to throw the Rev. Wright up in his face as part of her mission to keep stoking the fears of White America. Every time she does this I shout at the TV, “Say it, Obama! Say that when she and her husband were having marital difficulties regarding Monica Lewinsky, who did she and Bill bring to the White House for ‘spiritual counseling?’ THE REVEREND JEREMIAH WRIGHT!“
Incredible. There is something as having too much decency.
