Honorable mention. If you’ve hung out with me the past year or so, he’s my favorite topic. A fellow virgo, my acting inspiration and exercise guru lol In all sincerity, I find his work groundbreaking at times. The quintessential post-Pacino, James Dean renaissance leading man/character actor of his time. Do yaself a favor, Go watch Pope of Greenwich Village (1985) , Barfly (1987) and soak it in. I think they are both free on Y*utube 👀

i spent the beginning of this week watching stand by me, running on empty and my own private idaho and river truly was one of the most special humans to ever exist.
i just really think everyone should watch his body of work and talk about him more.

this guys somehow been in nothing I’ve heard of but everything I’ve seen as of late. he‘s mastered the “being the european guy in the room” role and has been in so many culty films, notably a lot of Von Trier stuff which I can take or leave I’m. Sorry. he has a great scene in My Own Private Idaho performing a kind of desperate musical number (his OWN ORIGINAL SONG) holding a lamp. he also has a name-droppy criterion closet video which is my favorite kind.

some of my favorite movies ever were made by him in the 60s, absolute mood pieces. seen la notte (pictured) more times than I’d care to admit. the passenger with jack nicholson is also sublime.

a beautiful inlet coffee & wine shop in the heart of Fort Greene. Run by some amazing, industrious friends of mine (Darryl Nuhn & Brad Ogbonna) featuring food from my guy, my genius, Nate Cox. Ferris Bueller Voice: “The menu is always changing but the vibe is so consistently choice. I highly recommend!”

Last music recc i promise 🙈. The Dark Knight of Indie Sleaze. Cody has been my fav since I was little kid. This album does not get enough shine for bringing us into the Frank Ocean world we’re currently in. Definitely a spiritual blueprint for me with the whole genre-blending. Reconnecting with his catalog really helped me pick up the guitar again too.

Another recent find. Maryland’s finest. Tommy was an exceptional pop writer from around my neck of the woods of Greater Washington DC/MD. A king of sincere queer coded lyrics a bit before it was okay to be or bait (think pre-Nirvana dress, but u mean it etc). His debut “Places That Are Gone” and “Nothing Can Change You” are also perfect. He did a lot of “multi instrument” playing for ppl like Paul Westerberg in the mid 90s, which is something I often do for bands I play with. He has been a big inspiration for me and my next round of albums.
