stpfilm: Talking STP
http://stpfilm.blogspot.com/2008/01/talking-stp.html
Tuesday, January 29, 2008. Recently, I had a chance to TALK film online versus just writing about it when my friend Nathaniel at The Film Experience. Asked me to participate in an Oscar nominations discussion as part of his new podast feature. Joe Reid of Low Resolution. The segment follows an interview Nat conducted with 12-time sound Oscar nominee Greg P. Russell, who is up for another sound Oscar this year for the. Download the conversation here.

stpfilm: Doubt's Beautiful Ambiguity
http://stpfilm.blogspot.com/2008/12/doubts-beautiful-ambiguity.html
Monday, December 01, 2008. At a recent SAG screening of Doubt. Writer/director John Patrick Shanley said the film—based on his Pulitzer Prize-winning play—is about “the pain and experience of being alive, and that you can’t be certain and yet you have to live.” No doubt about it. The story takes place in 1964 at Catholic school in the Bronx, where a nun grows suspicious that a charismatic priest has developed an inappropriate relationship with a student.

Wednesday, December 12, 2007. By Susan Thea Posnock. Viggo Mortensen is missing.

Tuesday, December 09, 2008. Michelle Williams and the Ellipses of Wendy and Lucy. In the melancholy world of Wendy and Lucy, meaning is conveyed more through looks and gestures than words. That’s key, given the plot turns on the relationship between down-on-her-luck Wendy, subtly portrayed by Michelle Williams, and Lucy, a lean and tan mutt with soulful brown eyes. We can’t know the full story between the two, but their affection is palatable. Read the rest at Awards Daily. Monday, December 01, 2008.
