For those of you interested in "the man behind the curtain," 
an interview I did for Film in Focus' blog went up yesterday. All of the questions related to this here blog as part of their Behind the Blog series, which they 
started little over two years ago with our ol' pal 
Andrew Grant. Let me know what you think. The goal for the day is to get some more of the 
Decade List's entries written up, but I've had a cold that's been annoying and wishy-washy (it can't decide whether it wants to turn into a full one or go away) for the past couple of weeks. With just over two months left in the year, I'm trying to wind things down, but I'm still taking suggestions if you think of some films I 
must see before even attempting to embark on a Best of the Decade list.

Also, I just noticed that the 
Butt Magazine Blog put up 
some great photos of Rossy de Palma, one of my favorite of Almodóvar's muses. de Palma, who has an all-too-brief appearance in 
Broken Embraces [
Los abrazos rotos], was interviewed in a recent "straight" issue from 
Butt.
