The debate — whether the ubiquity of suburban neo-modern developments was really an upgrade from new-money McMansions — ended in a standoff, mired by the generation gap. (Photo: David Lauridsen, Dwell, July/August 2008)
Upon trying to cobble together a list of my most beloved movies, I've decided that they can be placed on a favorite continuum - with the following poles: those I watch religiously and those I can't bare to watch again. Some of my favorite movies that fall into the watch at least monthly category: Rachel Getting Married, Hannah and Her Sisters, Interiors, Anything Else, Silence of the Lambs, The Ice Storm. Some of the heart-wrenching favorite movies that I can barely watch again: 21 Grams, Deer Hunter, Dead Man Walking, Brothers, Into the Wild, Million Dollar Baby.
