And, a lot of the bloggers profiled in the doc are relatively new to this thing that we do (2-3 years being the longest most bloggers have been at...

I thought filming on Indie Film Blogger Road Trip was done about a week ago, but not so, heading back on the road - to NYC - to interview Anthony Kaufman next week (along with anyone else on my list who may be available). I've started editing the blogger doc; expect to have it finished by the end of this month or early next month. So next week's road trip will definitely be the last filming session...

Today is my 28th birthday (cue self-reflexive old maid joke). I wasn’t even going to mention it here, but Anthony Kaufman has written a blog post with a promise that, if it ends up coming true, would be a pretty fantastic present, for you and me: I’d get to see Carlos Reygadas’ Silent Light get a theatrical release, and you’d get a reprieve from me bitching about it.
