Well well well. Welcome to 2008, Kristine.

I finally put my new, and some old, videos on Vimeo.

If you dare, give them a look-see. The newest ads are The Good Wife's Guide, ATLD 2 -4, Too Much, Intentional Fallacy and Cut/Paste.

All the videos will be up on my website very very soon.

A work in progress...

Walk Hard

I haven't blogged in a loooooooong time.

I don't really have an excuse, because I've certainly had enough time to polish off a bottle of wine every night, get my homework done and watch the debates.

I guess it's been about a month...

A lot has happened in that time. Mira lives here now and she's fun. I see Kelly a lot too. I've made friends with our neighbors, Billy and Margaret and their two dogs, Henry and Stella. I shot part of my Boaz and Ruth documentary on Saturday and ate a cheeseburger. Today, I actually put away my laundry. See, I've been BUSY.

Last night, I even got to hang out with Bill Clinton in the intimate outdoor setting of the VCU Commons with about 5000 other Obama supporters. That was totally awesome.

I'm writing today, because last night, I had the pleasure of actually letting myself relax and enjoy a movie. I'd just finished my Lit Review for my Art Ed course and was riding the Clinton high. So, the three of us hunkered down, flipped through Stars On Demand and decided on something we thought we would be totally dumb and silly. Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story.

Granted, it was dumb and silly, but I think I laughed at literally EVERY SINGLE SCENE. My guts hurt when it was over. It was clever as hell, parodying Walk the Line and all kinds of trends in music history. Paul Rudd did a fantastic job as John Lennon. Jack White played Elvis. Kristen Wiig was a hilarious baby factory. It was good to see Matt Besser and Chris Parnell and Jenna Fischer, and the entire star-studded cast of some of my favorite funny people. And John C. Reilly, well, frankly, he was amazing.

In the midst of trudging through Paul DeMan's "The Rhetoric of Temporality" all day today, searching for the meaning of allegory, symbol and irony, I keep zoning out and thinking back to that ridiculous movie and laughing my ass off. Where's the irony in that?

The songs were fantastic...from "Walk Hard" to the non-sensical Bob Dylan parody, to the dirty duet...thanks Judd Apatow and Jake Kasdan for another killer film. You fucking rock!
