Now a German production company is bringing The Cube to the theatre stage as KUBUS. Sorry, no […]

Last year I did a post on the subject of What Would Jesus Buy? Who could have predicted that the Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping would choose that very title for their new documentary? Surely this choice is too much to be a coincidence! No, this confluence of events is a sure […]

I finally bought the DVD of the documentary Fuck, (previously mentioned here) which I thoroughly enjoyed and which I think any serious advocate of free speech should see.
Incidentally, Bill Plympton provides interstitial animation throughout the film and contributes an interview to the DVD’s supplemental features. Seeing his work again brought back fond memories of seeing […]
