I have figured a lot out about life and who I am etc. but one thing I am still very conflicted about is if I will be the kind of mother who happily bares her breasts in order to feed her children in public.

If you don’t know who this is, then you need to go back to school. Or a library. Or start drinking every single day. Gin blossoms might recall a repressed memory…

I feel it is important for the world to know that my sexual attraction to Kevin Spacey was at its height in 1998. I wrote his name all over my desk in the 8th grade over and over. In films like “Swimming with Sharks,” “Hurlyburly,” “the Negotiator,” and most importantly ”L.A. Confidential,” this man was my adolescent flame and artistically an idol. Obviously this came to a climax in 1999 with “American Beauty,” and I’ve been reconciling it ever since, even meeting him in the 2000s at the stage door of the Old Vic in London, where he had performed “The Philadelphia Story.” I feel that I gave him strong stalker vibes, asking him when he was actually leaving the theater and how. Without making eye-contact he answered that he tells no one how he exits the theater. It was amazing.

“Now I yell at my TV when movies like American Beauty take top prize, because good heavens, that plastic bag speech. How could we have been so blind! We were young—what was everyone else’s excuse?”

I ask myself such questions every single day.

“It may all prove to be better for those who came before us and those who will be here after, but those of us who were born between Apocalypse Now and Wall Street seem to be in a bit of a bind. There is no sense of that coming dread in American Beauty—it’s static; a silent groan about the excesses of comfort. Whereas Fight Club, Three Kings, eXistenZ, and others embodied a looming paranoia and diminution that feels steady today. (I mean, did you see The Dark Knight Rises trailer for chrissake?). It feels impossible to go to American Beauty, now, as an adult, and find anything but a nasty, patronizing movie that tries to spin baby boomer disillusionment into universal themes.”

Does this not remind you of the film that will win best picture this year? The Descendents? Though 2011 was the year that gave us Martha Marcy May Marlene, Shame, Drive, Take Shelter, Melancholia, and of course the Artist.

Do you think Willem Dafoe would make a good King?

He may be the only King to whom I would ever bow, and he made a good King of Heaven in the Scorcese film.

This is clearly from where Oscar nominated performances spring.
