The READIN Family Album
Me and Sylvia at the Memorial (April 2009)

READIN

Jeremy's journal

The alternatives are not placid servitude on the one hand and revolt against servitude on the other. There is a third way, chosen by thousands and millions of people every day. It is the way of quietism, of willed obscurity, of inner emigration.

J.M. Coetzee

🦋 Sideways

We saw Sideways tonight and I was just blown away. I don't think I have been so moved by a buddy movie, with the possible exceptions of Y Tu Mama Tambien and Thelma and Louise. For a while I was feeling really resentful of Jack and Stephanie for having such a good time when Miles and Maya were really much more deserving -- this was of course a facile and limited reaction, and I recognized it as such. Really, a beautiful movie -- go see it if you have the chance.
