Real Talk Tuesdays: Wes Anderson
Took the family to see the new Wes Anderson flick, Moonrise Kingdom. It was excellent and Anderson continues to build on his already solid body of work. Even amongst my favorite storytellers (Spike Lee, Woody Allen, Coen Brothers, Tarantino, Chan-wook Park) his filmography just might be the most consistent. Dig the reel and tell me I'm wrong.
Throwback Thursdays: Rappin' Duke
Fathers Day is just around the corner. Thinking about getting my old man a copy of True Grit (the Coen Brothers version). I bought him the Charles Portis novel awhile back - we both read it and loved it. The original film, of course, featured an Academy Award winning performance by John Wayne (1970). Fast foward to 1984 and D.C. musician Shawn Brown riffin' on the Duke in this hip-hop classic.
