Here's one from six or seven years ago featuring my dad fishing in Fisher's Island Sound on our boat. If by any chance you're a patient of his, you can now see where your root canal money goes: squid, sandworms, and gasoline. I think this was the 2nd or 3rd movie I made on my (then) new Sony Digital8.

Tova and Toby were having too much fun at Libbi's wedding. The collision doesn't happen until around 1:20 into the clip.

I'll post more of Tova's all-night dance party tomorrow. Also coming soon is my mom battling a New Zealand chicken with a wading staff.

For those of you who have never heard of Aki Kaurismäki, you'd better add his The Man Without a Past to your Netflix queues right now. In addition to being one of his best films, it's also the most memorable for me because it was my first encounter with this quietly hilarious Finnish writer/director.

But the reason I'm writing this evening is that my NYTimes movie reviews RSS feed just told me that the final installment in his Loser Trilogy is out now in certain cities. I'm bummed that Denver is not one of those cities, but Jeff, if you're reading this, you should head over to the IFC Center and check it out!

And bring a mini-dv camera and send me the tape!

Here's the link to the NY Times review.

Ara and I took a little run in the Sanitas area this morning:

It was nice and quiet--we saw only deer for the first half and only a handful of people and a raptor on the way down.

Here's the link to the full trip.
