Glamwire RoQs #1


Actress Bijou Phillips and Guitarist Pat Smear RoQ, like, the Whatever Theatre on Whatever Street, in NYC, after the premier of the Germ's biop flick "What We Do Is Secret," in which Phillips plays "Lorna Doome" whom we met back stage and who has been reunited with Smear to do a Germs tour with the movie this year. The Germs were the first La Punk band. Darby Crash named "Pat Smear" on a whim in their homeroom in high school in 1977. Crash committed suicide with a big injection of heroin on December 9th, 1980. The story was famously overshadowed by the murder of John Lennon the same night. The movie ROQS, and Pat Smear, has gone through his adult life with the name Pat Smear, and has played with Nirvana, and is an original member of the Foo Fighters, and chills whenever he can in Malibu at his ranch. The other Germs are very excited about their reunion tour, and have every reason to be excited about the excellent flick "What We Do Is Secret."

"President" World Premiere At Cannes


"President" debuted at Cannes on May 24th at 8:30 PM in the tiny Palais E, in the Grand Palais at Cannes. Despite "Oceans 13," Julian Lennon's "Whaledreamers," and a popular film on Silvio Berlusconi all playing concurrently with President in the Palais, President had a near packed house, and our own Leonard Fujiyama, who attended the seance, has these thoughts on the film:

"'President' may be the most important and entertaining political documentary of our time. A film commited to the preservation and integrity of democracy, packed with animation and humour and great moments with all kinds of wonderfull interesting and talented people, Milon Henry Levine (above) seems to have found his voice with this wild and eccentric, yet powerfully focused feature doc. It's a film in which even Christopher Hitchens gets into the act and performs a little fictional skit along with serious interviews that he gives throughout the film, Most importantly, the film stands as a testimony to what legislation can do, and it believes that Rush Holt's HR 811 must be passed to hold machines accountable in voting and eventually in all other aspects of business and life. Also the film argues that presidential elections should taken out of the hands of "State's Rights" as states are partisan entities. It argued this in a way that came off like a "Tarnation" of poltical docs, a lot of handmade, homgrown media that capitvated and was flat out very funny and smart."
