Empty movie theater
Flea bites. Sleep daze. Antihistamine reactions. Hallucinatory appearances by David Cronenberg.
They were all things that happened during one of Sarah’s strangest experiences at a movie theater.
She recalled the details of her weird trip as part of a compilation feature on Consequence Of Sound about people’s Most Memorable Movie Theater Experiences.
Sarah still has no idea whether the Cronenberg she saw was real or not.

Boy Meets Girl
The new film Boy Meets Girl has a novel (and probably necessary) casting decision. In the film the trans character Ricky is — a rarity — actually played by a trans person, Michelle Hendley.
Hendley was also a nearly raw rookie when they were recruited for the film. Which made the casting decision even more bold.
Sarah talked to Michelle Hendley about the film for Consequence Of Sound.

Iron Man 3
So there’s a big new cultural bogeyman looming over Hollywood right now and its name is “China.”
Apparently when China is involved in funding gigantic movies they want a certain amount of editorial … consideration.
Some people think this is crazy, wackadoodle, end-of-civilization stuff.
Sarah explained how in a new column for Consequence Of Sound this has been going on forever and it’s not that big a deal.

Elliott Smith in Heaven Adores You
There’s a new documentary film about the late Elliott Smith called Heaven Adores You.
In it director Nickolas Rossi takes a decidedly fannish look at the singer’s troubled life.
Sarah reviewed the film for Consequence Of Sound.

Mad Max Fury Road
Pretty much everyone thinks Mad Max: Fury Road is one of the most amazing action films in the history of action films.
Except one group: men’s rights activists.
Apparently these pathetic aspiring bullies think Charlize Theron’s character Furiosa is too uppity in the movie.
Sarah wrote a column about how dumb these people are for Consequence Of Sound.
