i spent the last five days on an island with no cars. no keys, no shoes, no wallet. it was in this environment that i launched my independent filmmaking career. go get some popcorn and watch the dailies!
this is a documentary film about a rhino.
this is take two, in which the rhino has a near death experience with a boulder.
this one is called poogene is magic.
see you at cannes!

skin and ink
it's entirely possible that this movie, the tattooist, (first read about it on needled) will suck. but i care not. because jason behr looks so totally hot with his fake tattoos. whatever fetish this is - being sexually attracted to the tattooed - i have it.

sounds like teen spirit
listen.
i am fully aware that i am an adult, and not a sulky teenager.
and yet.
sometimes i ride the subway with my hoodie hood up, iPod blasting inane pop that soothes the soul or blistering emorock that fuels angst.
and right now is a great time for infectious sugary confections, the silly tracks known as summer anthems. i've worn my amy winehouse and lily allen albums thin; i'm looking for songs to carry me through june.
candidate #1 ; girlfriend - avril lavigne
it's not rocket science or poetry, but it's like she can read my mind.
"hey, hey
you, you!
i don't like your girlfriend!
no way, no way,
i think you need a new one...
hey hey, you you -
i could be your girlfriend!
she's like so whatever
you could do so much better.
i think we should get together...
now."
i mean seriously. i've had this conversation with myself or a friend at least a million times this year and we're less than 6 months in.
candidate #2: lip gloss - lil mama
the estate of marilyn monroe and various marketing departments may want you to believe that diamonds are a girl's best friend, but ask any modern woman what she can't live without on a daily - nay, hourly- basis, and the answer is lip gloss. lil mama is 17 years old and shouts out mac and l'oréal. love her.
(download track here)
candidate #3: girlfriend remix - avril with lil mama
combine these brats and double your pleasure! two great tastes that taste great together!
download by clicking here!
candidate #4: party like a rock star - shop boys
the musical equivalent of candy from a 25¢ bodega vending machine. great and terrible at the same time, bad for you, sort of gross and highly addictive.
"totally, dude."
candidate #5: umbrella - rihanna
i dunno, the song is stupid but kind of hot at the same time, i guess she wants to be the new aaliyah, except ciara has that on lock. rihanna looks good—gorgeous, actually, but at times her voice is super nasal, that's my only complaint. still. i think jay-z is a genius and knows exactly what he is doing as he micromanages her career. the "ay-ay-ay" in this track is annoying at first and then you just succumb to it, it carries you away like a coney island riptide and you enjoy drowning in its repetition.
candidate #6: last night - diddy ft. keyshia cole
three words i always live by: don't doubt diddy.
ok!
this is by no means a definitive list. i'm open to suggestions for great summer songs.
while we're on the subject of teen angst, i watched nowhere for the nth time over the weekend. took pictures because the art direction is killer. i also just love the stilted acting, fast-paced potty-mouthed dialogue and apocalyptic tone. sigh.

leftovers
i'm just going to warm up some stuff from earlier in the week.
monday i had a hot ticket: entry to a press screening of pirates of the caribbean: at world's end.
it was super fun... non-stop action. if you think the second one sucked, you're right. but this was better.
about halfway through it goes all psychotic and psychadelic and you join johnny depp as he trips out of his mind. so much awesome.
tuesday i was walking home through soho minding my own business when richard famous called me.
"what are you doing?" he asked.
"i'm on my way home," i said.
"come to the rogan party," he said. "tsuyoshi is here."
"i dunno, i'm tired," i said.
he handed the phone to tsuyoshi.
"you have to come, there are so many hot guys here," tsuyoshi said. "get in a cab right now."
i got in a cab.
it was a hybrid!
i was already having fun.
"i thought rogan made jeans. why are there only surfboards in this store?" i asked.
no one answered. we drank free booze. we hung out on the sidewalk in the mild may air. we played ping pong in front of the store. we ate stupendously delicious appetizers at south's. we wandered the streets of tribeca and hit the afterparty at smith & mills.
yesterday was richard famous' birthday. drinks on the patio @ b bar and then much-needed sleep.
it was also a celeb-studded day.
last night i saw fred armisen on the F train platform at west 4th street.
later i saw alan cumming on ludlow street, considering entering paladar and then reconsidering.
then latenight i saw rashida jones on houston and essex, looking every bit as beautiful as she does in pictures.
looking ahead:
- it's fleet week! there are sailors everywhere.
- my attorney is coming to town again!
- it's almost my birthday. i hate aging but i love celebrating.

moss and movies
moss is a store in which you are not allowed to touch anything, take photographs, or make disparaging remarks about the merchandise. throw free white wine at people during the icff and suddenly anything goes. touching, photographing, critiquing. everyone's got one eye on the designs and the other eye on the crowd. lots of hot design-oriented gentlemen. most common question: "straight or gay?" most common answer: "here, it's so hard to tell."
later we hit another party @ kiosk and then lovely super ¢heap dinner @ congee bowery.
late night: gummo was on.
sunday night: watched larry clark's wassup rockers. not as good as kids, in my opinion, but still an insight into the lives of this clique: tight pants wearing latino skateboard boys in LA.
