Sing The Truth into the New Year

If you missed the Sing the Truth! tour–which featured Angelique Kidjo, Dianne Reeves & Lizz Wright–you’ll have a chance to hear them in the early morning hours of 2012.

On Jan 1st at 12:30 am, NPR’s Toast Of The Nation will be broadcasting part of the Sing The Truth! show from the 2011 Detroit Jazz Festival.

In the meantime, have a taste:

Do Not Get Married

That seems to be one of the messages behind Zulawski’s Possession. Here’s the deal: After being away on assignment, Mark returns home to find that his wife Anna wants to leave him. Mark wants more than ever to preserve their family (they have a son). Turns out that Anna has a lover and other secrets.

This movie is just a roller coaster ride of “what the hell…” – just when you think you have an idea of what’s going on, another twist comes out of nowhere. There are murders, lots of screaming, philosophical conversations of about the nature of god/dog, self mutilation and then it gets really weird…

My take on it: in creating idealized versions of each other, Mark and Anna ultimately sowed the seeds of their own destruction. If you are in the NYC area, it’s playing at the Film Forum until December 13th. Seeing this on a big screen is a must; I may go see it again…
