Reeler Link Dump: Failure to Multitask Edition
Believe me: Jan. 12 will go down in my personal history as one of my most productive days ever. Just not... here.
But all is not lost! For example:
--Manderlay director Lars von Trier will discuss his latest film--via iChat--with viewers at IFC Center at the end of the month. Think of it like Web porn, only he is fucking you. Again. (via indieWIRE)
--Lindsay Lohan released a statement saying Vanity Fair "misused and misconstrued" quotes provided for a profile in its February issue. Rumor has it that while preparing her libel lawsuit, Lohan called Roman Polanski asking if she could borrow a certain bloody kitten. (via Teen People)
--On the bright side, Lohan found a true friend in past VF cover girl Kate Moss. Scarlett Johansson, not so much. (via Gawker)
--Queen Latifah returned home to Newark, N.J., Wednesday night to premiere her new film, Last Holiday. As the AP reports, " As she walked along a red carpet laid in the middle of a parking lot Latifah said she was happy to be back in Newark." However, the story does not say if Latifah ever located her car. (via Yahoo!)
--Just when you thought David Carr had the ultimate NBR awards coverage, Rush and Molloy reveal the true scope of the drunkenness at hand. I stopped reading at the part where Philip Seymour Hoffman crawled on all fours. (via NY Daily News)
--The 2006 NYC Horror Film Festival is offically welcoming submissions. Hurry up, though: The deadline is only eight months away. (via Fangoria)
--Iraq war documentary (and Oscar short-lister) Occupation: Dreamland takes another spin tonight at the Steinhardt Center. Directors Garrett Scott and Ian Olds will join former soldier Joseph Wood--perhaps their film's most memorable subject--for a post-screening discussion. (via 92Y Blog)
--A few major NYC news outlets out author JT Leroy as a fake composite, and all of the sudden he disappears from Gen Art's Starbucks Salon online roster at Sundance. Do not worry, though: Anthony Rapp is still slated to attend. Insert relieved sigh here. (via Variety, Gen Art)
