George Robinson is working on a piece about Su Friedrich, who will be having a retrospective at MoMA at the end of the month. I'm looking forward to George's piece, and to seeing Su's new work. (George has some interesting thoughts on some unusual DVDs, including the "Unseen Cinema" boxset; check him out of http://www.cine-journal.blogspot.com to find out his other recommendations.) My short piece on the DVD series that Robert Haller is producing for Anthology Film Archives ("Meet The Kuchar Brothers", "Curtis Harrington at Anthology Film Archives" and "Stan Brakhage on Gregory Markopoulos & Jim Davis") is now up at Masters of Cinema (http://www.mastersofcinema.org); last week, in The Village Voice, J. Hoberman did a pieec (compare-and-contrast) about "The Black Dahlia" and Pat O'Neill's "The Decay of Fiction" so my instincts about the confluence of those movies (plus "Hollywoodland") were not off.
