Can't stop watching this clip of Ken Jeong doing improv, an outtake from Knocked Up. It's funny. You have to go to the youtube link to watch it b/c it's unembeddable.

I just finished programming for Slamdance - roughly three weeks of film-viewing. It was fun and enlightening. I tend to be a little too open-minded in evaluating things - whereas some people trust their instincts from the start - I have to sift through things for a while until I'm sure of what I feel. So by the end of it I felt a piece of me had come back and connected with the kinds of films I really enjoy. Sometimes we have to leave where we come from in order to learn about the world, about past history, about anything outside of ourselves. But looking at the sensibilities of the work I liked most, I'm reminded of how much American filmmakers like Kubrick, Spike Lee, Tarantino, and Wes Anderson were a part of my growing up.

Recently, I met up with Quentin Shih, who just moved to NYC from Beijing. The last time I saw him was in 2001, when we worked together on LE Magazine in Beijing, which is now Time Out Beijing. He was already a good photographer then, but looking at his portfolio now totally blew me away! I'm guessing the Asia peeps might be more familiar with his work in recent years than I've been since he shoots for Chinese Vogue, GQ, etc.
My favorites are on his website at
