Movie Reviews

The English Surgeon

A good documentary does more to stimulate my mind than the best fictional films. The English Surgeon is above and beyond a spectacular documentary. Most scriptwriters couldn't dare compete with the sheer drama and uncomfortable tension filmmaker Geoffrey Smith captures in his real-life story of English neurosurgeon Henry Marsh, who became fed up with the inability of Ukrainian doctors to treat patients in need of brain operations and decided to do something about it. When a young Ukrainian man needs an operation to remove a tumor in his brain, Doctor Smith is his only hope for long-term survival. Unfortunately for this patient, modern luxuries are nowhere to be found in modern-day Ukraine and the only the way the operation can move forward is by using nothing but local anesthetics to reduce the pain of drilling thru the scull and scraping away the cancerous cells growing on his brain--In other words, doing the entire operation while completely awake and conscious. Beyond the unbelievable situations throughout the film, the simple message of humanitarianism shines.  In today's consumerist smorgasbord of a world we live in, it can be easy to forget the simple things that make being a fellow human being a rewarding experience. This film helps remind us. -Clayton Hauck

SXSW Austin Carniville Saturday & Afterparty

Well folks, here it is, the final SXSW post this year. I have to say, the whole time down in Austin was very fun. Lots of drinking and lack of sleep and general wandering and beer and vodka and pizza and inescapable music of all sorts. It was also very tiring and getting caught up on all the photos was super hard since I got home, since I've been busy with other stuff as well. There are two sets of photos, one via my Canon 5D and the other via the Panasonic GF1. Both cover the Carniville and afterparty.

Night Time Flying

7/16/2009 | Chicago: Let's rewind a few days real quick and look at some photos from Willy Joy's monthly party, Fly By Night at Debonair. This party was kind of the beginning of the crazy weekend for me. After this there was no letting up until Monday rolled around. Along with Willy, Jokers of the Scene and Franki Chan played the jams. Check out all the shots here or see a few selects below.
