"What makes Alice Wu's debut so pleasurable is its easy rhythms, its sly juxtapositions, and its relaxed but funny performances. A generous straight man,
Krusiec gives the film emotional heft...."---Slate

Live! Opens this week in London
Sunday, September 14, 2008
Some news that Michelle wanted me to pass along.
Live! Opening this week in London!
In a world where reality and entertainment are continuously colliding, Academy Award winning documentary filmmaker Bill Guttentag's feature debut Live! follows ABN network president Katy Courbet (Eva Mendes) and up-and-coming documentary filmmaker Rex (David Krumholtz) as inspiration strikes to create the most daring reality program ever. The show is Russian Roulette, network style, with contestants competing for 5 million dollars on-air, complete with loaded guns. As seen through the lens of a documentary film crew, Live! examines the competitive and often gut-wrenching world of television production, where everyone from the crew to the contestants to the network brass becomes engulfed in a ratings battle to the top-a battle where questions of morality, ethics and sheer will lead to a darkly humorous and unforgettable outcome.(Summary from imdb.com)

U.S. Election 2008
Wednesday, September 10, 2008
Hey Everyone!
I just wanted to encourage everyone to register and VOTE. This is truly a special election but if you're not registered by October, you may miss your chance to be a part of a truly historical election in America. Also, since my exposure to Burma and my participation in the PSA campaign (see past blogs), I've really become sensitive to participating in our political process. Please VOTE in this election.
XO,
michelle
