| General | Acting, writing, filmmaking, business ventures. | | Music | Well, there's the Beatles. Then there's everything else.
Lately I've been getting into downtempo electronica. Chill music. Like The Chillcast with Anji Bee. | | Movies | I like a pretty broad range of movies. Everything from the Marx Brothers to Welles to Tarantino to Apatow to Hal Hartley; from the better summer flicks to the art-house stuff to the best foreign work.
My criteria for a film is it doesn't suck. | | Television | Dexter, Weeds, Mad Men, Entourage (guilty pleasure), The Office. And how can I forget Californication!
Oh, and reality tv is schisse. | | Books | Here's where I really out myself. 'The Power of the Actor' by Ivana Chubbuck, 'Story' by Robert McKee, 'God Passes By' by Shoghi Effendi, 'The Dawnbreakers' - Nabil's narrative history, 'Love in the Time of Cholera' by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Groucho Marx's books, Woody Allen's compilations of essays, Shakespeare's comedies & tragedies (just haven't been able to embrace his histories), all things Adib Taherzadeh, all things William Sears, 'It's not Your Fault' by Patricia Romano McGraw, 'A Whack on the Side of the Head' and 'A Kick in the Seat of the Pants' by Roger Von Oech, Roger White's poetry, Ruth Foreman's poetry..... Amongst the classics, I also like the American Romantics (light and dark) - Emerson, Thoreau, Melville, Poe, Dickinson, Hawthorne..... Not a thorough list, but a start. | | Heroes | Quddus, Mulla Husayn, Groucho Marx, Charlie Kaufman, Christopher Walken, Orson Welles.... |
