A Fantastic Movie

Today we only had a matinee in Doe-land so after the show I walked down to E Street Cinema (my new favorite movie theatre) to see a movie that I have wanted to see for a while. I figured I should see it soon since it has been out for a while.

I wish I had seen it sooner. I saw the German film "The Lives of Others". It was so good. Some really great performances. It is in German so those of you that enjoy reading your movies... sorry!

It's an exciting film that is very important to see in the Patriot Act world we live in. Granted this is set in the 1980's it is quite scary. To think that it was really like this in Germany... and to think that it is where we might be headed.

ENOUGH POLITICS...






I really hope that I have the opportunity to see it again. There are few performances out there like Ulrich Muhe (pictured).

I do love going to E Street Cinema. I always sit through the previews with a little notebook so I can jot down the names of the films I want to come back to see.

So far I have seen some top notch films that I would not have even heard of had I not seen the previews at the theatre. Its a shame that these films (mostly foreign and independent) are not publicized more than they are.

BE A PATRON OF INDEPENDANT MOVIES...

YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID!!

NEGATIVITY!!!

I am just sick of it!

It never did anyone any good. Its very unattractive and should be left at the door when you come to work or to hang out with friends.

ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING!!!

Vote for Jess W. Speaker, III for AEA Council!!

ATTENTION ALL EQUITY MEMBERS...

I received my ballot today and voted... HAVE YOU????

Royal Mistake (not mine)

So any of you AEA folks who read this blog probably got an email from me about the current Council Election asking for your support and your help getting elected.

That email also contained a flyer bearing the AEA Logo. While I did send that flyer to AEA in New York for approval, it was approved and should not have been.

Needless to say this was not my fault but now there are 200 or more flyers our there that are in violation because "No candidate standing for election to the Equity Council is permitted to use the Equity logo".

If I emailed you one of these logo bearing flyers or if one is posted at your theatre, please email me at jspeaker@hotmail.com so I can send you a corrected flyer.

Thank you for your continued support!

New Show Just ADDED!!

I am very excited about this show... Click on my schedule to see what I just booked!!

Funny from Mom

Singing in Public??

Provided the weather lets us that is.

The cast of Meet John Doe will be singing a kick-ass arrangement of the Star Spangled Banner at the Washington Nationals baseball game tomorrow. Jenny and I are both singing. It sounds great and I have having a blast. I don't exactly plan on getting my voice back in shape to start any kind of attempt at a singing career... but I am having a blast!! Plus, how often do you get a chance like that?

Some Day Off Pics

A few Mondays ago Jenny and I got together with Steve and Matty and went to the Tidal Basin. Jenny was the photographer for the day and took some great pics.

Here they are!

Then what is it...
