Basquiat (1996)

i have complicated feelings about biopics and often don’t watch them at all. reportedly Jim Jaramusch won’t even watch this film based on how Julian Schnabel handled this. but there is something about this movie. and i think its the performances and those involved that make me wonder if we can isolate those things and see them as “inspired by” the people they are playing vs a direct translation of their life, it could be a different story. the OP brought up some valid points about sensitivity and research, and i think that while this film says nothing new about Basquiat, it treats their struggle in interesting ways ranging from careless to tender. also david bowie as andy warhol — you can’t really beat that, can you?

this summer, we’re starting yoga, we’re learning a new language (being bilingual is now the standard, you need to know at least three to be truly chic), we’re going to concerts just because the tickets were cheap, we’re going to museums (especially the weird ones), hitting up the local library to ask for new recommendations, whether it’s a surprise or based on past tastes, we’re painting, collecting and collaging, sewing and embroidering our clothes, re-learning the harmonica, playing chess with strangers online and at the café, we’re taking up tennis and pretending it’s not just because of challengers. the only way to find what brings you joy is to try.

HATING LAUREN SANCHEZ AND JEFF BEZOS’S WEDDING

money can’t buy taste, but it can apparently buy press coverage for your fiancée (now wife) in almost every major magazine and news outlet however, maybe the famine of beauty amongst today’s tech billionaires will lead some people on social media to get a hobby other than trying to look rich, maybe they’ll even develop class consciousness while they’re at it photo courtesy of Jerry Saltz, art critic at New York Magazine
