a really good time yesterday at "Dear White People", the movie at Lincoln Center New Directors festival.
Amazing energy in the space, and a very enjoyable movie. I predict it will have a lot of commercial success when it is released in the Fall. Also, good session with Andrea, yesterday, these two hour sessions are tiring (for her as well as for me) but we got a lot of work done, Again, she is my most "difficult" student in that she needs to be taught conceptually---the greatest challenge for me among my five or six students.
Got an e-mail from FUREE today, asking for volunteers to go to Gowanus Houses to let residents know about the participatory budgeting process that they are involved with. But won't go---too tired, also just need to spend the time by myself, maybe make the rounds of my "hang-outs" in Brooklyn. Don't want to see any movies, plays, or operas today---really need to thaw out, be with people, and possibly watch some NCAA basketball---would enjoy watching the Harvard-Michigan State game.
Things seem to be shaping up well for next week--tomorrow will see the play that Lucy is in, Monday a poetry reading by R. Zucker (her poetry fascinates me) Tuesday and Wednesday so far open (maybe La Sonnambula) Thursday this poor dream, Friday maybe a movie at BAM, saturday, the John Jesuran piece that Abby is in. Any more..well it would be nice to see one more New Directors Film, but when...? Not sure.Will see where we are on Monday.....
