Fort Greene: October 2006 Archives

It's all about BAM this weekend. So much stuff going on it's hard to figure out what to go to. On Friday, there's a dance piece set to Steve Reich music, and the Susan Sontag-inspired theater piece The End of Cinematics sounds interesting, but granted that's coming from someone who only has to pay $4 with a TheaterMania membership (definitely worth it if you like theater at all). But I'm not sure I can resist going to see Tod Browning's Freaks, one of the creepiest movies ever made, on the big screen. I've only seen it on video, but even then, this revenge thriller--starring actual pinheads and other circus sideshow folks--deeply freaked me out.  It's all the more shocking when you realize it was made in 1932. Saturday is Lost Highway, one of the few David Lynch movies I haven't seen. I either love his movies, or want to walk out of them. Any fans of this one out there?
