Coal: once used to provide electricity to New Mexico and other parts of the world.
PNM IS LEAVING COAL IN THE PAST. SO WHAT’S NEXT? PNM is leading the way to become the nation’s first investor-owned utility to achieve a zero-emission goal by 2040. We’re doing this through an innovative approach to replace coal-fired generation by combining proven wind, solar and fast-start natural gas power with cutting-edge battery storage technologies. While we must provide just one solution, we’re taking a hard look at different scenarios to reach this goal. By doing this, we are committed to getting the best result for New Mexico’s future. The right result can significantly increase environmental benefits and continue to change the way PNM does business, all while providing reliable and affordable power to you.

On Friday June 27, we made a change to our website that’s worth an explanation. We’ve discontinued our use of the online comment system. The third-party provider of our comment interface has become less than useful for thoughtful communication among our diverse audience. Further, it now requires publication of advertising that reinforces negative body image and other values that we don’t want to promote. It also doesn’t require users to identify themselves, empowering trolling behavior and anonymous keyboard warriors. So we’re taking a break from bottom-ofthe-story comments.

randon Stewart stands inside the jammed City Council chambers, jabbing a protest placard toward the ceiling. It says “Fix the Housing Crisis.” The 17-year-old, a Southside teenager like some of the others protesting around him, gathers at City Hall along with about 100 others to say it again: The people in their part of town have suffered in Santa Fe, as affordable places to live increasingly escape residents’ grasps. They’ve come together June 26, to hold their signs through several long hours of deliberation, to watch the council vote on a highly publicized measure. The 8-1 vote, with only Councilor Carol Romero-Wirth dissenting, allows landowners to rent to different parties their main homes and ancillary dwellings—casitas, in Santa Fespeak—in what they’ve billed as a small piece in the massive mosaic that is this city’s longstanding housing problem. “A lot of people can’t afford a lot of things, and this is one thing that we need to tackle as a community,” Stewart tells SFR. “We’re trying to get into this housing program and it’s all backed up. There’s
only so many spots.” At least for the last few decades, young, low-income and majority Hispanic Santa Feans have been pushed from the city’s center, away from services, grocery stores and public transit—partly because of skyrocketing home prices and flatlining incomes. Housing restrictions in city ordinances have also favored home ownership and low-density zoning in the city’s north and east sections and largely ignored renters’ needs, activists say. The passing of the casita amendment is a first step of sorts in a longer-term plan that Southside residents, youth and advocacy groups hope will reclaim their sense of home—any home—in Santa Fe. So they land at City Hall as part of the March for Housing rally. Like Stewart, many of the younger marchers are here with YouthWorks, a program that operates on the Southside to help disenfranchised teenagers and young people with job placement, training, certificate programs, education and even housing—to a point. Three other teenagers from YouthWorks are here for the same reason. They are proud of their work with Habitat for Humanity with the recently funded YouthBuild initiative and want to contribute to the fight for more. And yet, those homes are still out of reach. “None of us can afford one,” Johnny Gee, a staff member at YouthWorks, says at the rally. “The staff can’t. Nobody can, and that is low-income and affordable housing.
We’re chewing away at it. But it’s a drop in the barrel.” It’s a drop that is not likely to reach the youth gathered at the edge of the Plaza, and yet Gee wants them to have experience in civic engagement. What his students need are rent control, more local and federal dollars, and major housing projects, he says, to make up for generational poverty. Habitat’s minimum annual income requirement is $15,400 for a single person and the organization is not accepting applications. Oregon took a leap this week to allow for more housing outside of single-family homes, which are inaccessible to many. If the state’s governor approves—and it’s ex-

pected that she will—the law will increase potential for so-called “missing middle” housing to allow for triplexes, fourplexes, attached townhomes and cottage clusters on some lots in all residential zones. Basically, strict single-family zoning is a thing of the past for cities with more than 25,000 people. Santa Fe’s casita amendment is a beginning, but those coming from generations of poverty are still far from a true leg up to get stable housing and begin the climb out. Daniel Werwath helped organize the Santa Fe Housing Action Coalition and works for a nonprofit housing organization called New Mexico Inter-faith Housing. He moved here to work on affordable housing in 2003 for the Housing Trust. For Werwath, who organized the rally, the casita amendment is a sign that Mayor Alan Webber is sticking to promises to increase affordable housing. Adding housing as quickly as possible is essential for families and young people in the city, Werwath says. According to the most recent census numbers from 2017, 73 percent of renter families who make less than $50,000 a year in household income are paying more than they can afford for housing. He views opponents to the casita amendment and other community-led efforts for more affordable housing as older, majority-white people complaining about a perceived lack of parking and an increase in short-term rentals such as Airbnb infiltrating neighborhoods. But Werwath thinks it’s more an issue of north and east side residents fearing change. “They are homeowners who don’t want to see things change in their neighborhood,” he says. “Are we going to let them choose a future for us that has huge impacts on the young people in this community, huge impacts on our role in climate change and how urban development impacts climate change?” The lack of affordable housing is leading to a drain of workers, young people and cultural and economic diversity as people leave the city or even the state altogether. With YouthWorks, Gee has a chance to teach young people to speak up for themselves and to continue the fight for a place to live that won’t cripple them economically. Amanda Esquiba sits outside of City Hall surrounded by other teenagers, holding her phone and a sign that says “Help us out! Rights to Housing.” “Before, I lived in my mom’s car for a while,” Esquiba tells SFR, “and ever since I was in [YouthWorks] they’ve been really trying to do everything to go out of their way to help me.” SFREPORTER.COM

Coffee with a (Former) Spy Talking politics with Valerie Plame, a political celebrity running for Congress
BY W I L L CO ST E L LO w i l l @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
M
y meeting with Valerie Plame begins when I furtively follow the former CIA agent into the building. We arrive at Downtown Subscription at exactly the same time, but she chooses a parking spot closer to the door than I do, so she’s about a dozen steps ahead. I could shout after her as she walks in the door or run to catch up—but the prospect of tailing, unnoticed, a former spy is too good to pass up. Once I’d crossed “do something out of a John Le Carré novel” off my bucket list and made myself known, we get our coffee (both black) and sit down next to the window. Plame moved to the City Different in 2007 with then-husband and former US Ambassador Joe Wilson, the day after the man who can safely be called her nemesis, Scooter Libby—who played a key role in leaking her identity as a spy— was convicted by a federal grand jury. She tells me that she first fell in love with the place after visiting Los Alamos National Labs in her capacity as an anti-nuclear proliferation agent with the CIA. “We looked,” Plame says. “It was like, ‘Hey! We can go anywhere. The government’s not telling us where to go.’ So we looked at many different communities, but I said ‘I want to go to Santa Fe.’ And I prevailed.” Now that her children have gone off to college, Plame says she’s been wondering what’s next. She landed on a political campaign, seeking the congressional seat vacated by Rep. Ben Ray Luján. She’s running in the June 2020 Democratic primary against District Attorney Marco Serna, state Rep. Joseph Sanchez (D-Alcalde) and local social justice attorney Teresa Leger Fernandez. Gavin Kaiser of Santa Cruz and Rob Apodaca, who worked in the US Department of Agriculture during the Obama administration, have also filed to

run. During our meeting, Plame rattles off her campaign platform, which sounds more or less like every other candidate’s campaign platform. She offers a few tidbits: She talks more on prescription drug costs and their affordability than other candidates so far, and she mentions that her average donation is around $69, although her team says that number could go down after a small-dollar donation push they’re planning. But usually with these kind of interviews, there’s some small talk—and, being two people who have a professional interest in politics, we talk about the weather for literally 30 seconds before the conversation shifts to the Democratic Primary debates, which would begin the next evening. What follows is a rare enough thing to hear a candidate speak about: a regular conversation about the issues of the day. “Is there a candidate that you like?” she asks. “I won’t tell anyone.” I see my opportunity. “I’ll tell you mine if you tell me yours,” I answer. “Honestly, I think we have an embarrassment of riches,” she replies, not taking the bait. “There’s aspects of every one

of them that are really important, we just have to roll them up into one body.” She goes on to say that she’s not a fan of candidates “picking on one another.” The Republicans will do that just fine, she says, and she wishes that they would each focus on their own message. “For instance,” she says. “I’m not this huge Biden fan, but the most recent dust-
NEWS
up is when Biden is using—and once again he’s a little gaffe-prone—examples of how he worked with segregationists back in the ’70s to say, ‘Look. Sometimes you may not like these people but you have to get stuff done.’ And that’s what I understood his message to be.” “I believe what Biden was trying to say was that you might not always like your bedfellows, but can you maybe get something done?” she continues. “And Cory Booker was apparently pushed by his supporters, who were saying, ‘This is your moment, get in there!’ I think it has the overall effect of deteriorating the field if you continue to snipe at each other.” I push back a little bit more. “I thought it was a fair point,” I say. “That [Booker] said, ‘The guys you’re talking about working with and getting things done with wanted to keep me in the back of the bus and make me use a different drinking fountain.’” Plame again reiterates that she does not think Biden should be the nominee, and acknowledges that Booker made a fair point. “Be that as it may, I don’t think he acknowledged what Biden was trying to say, clumsily, awkwardly, in a difficult manner. In the Biden way.” It’s illustrative of a broader split within the Democratic Party, and one that has reared its head in local races around the country, where “outsider” candidates challenge establishment figures over their willingness to compromise. It’s unclear whether the CD3 race will follow that trajectory, especially with no incumbent in play. Serna has also tacked towards conflict avoidance, emphasizing decorum and civility, whereas Leger doesn’t say much about needing to compromise. Before long we move to another big national news story: the looming war with Iran. Plame, whose career in the CIA focused on nuclear non-proliferation, has an insider’s view on the subject, and she’s worried. “You know, I had a ringside seat in the run-up to the war with Iraq,” she says. “And I see a lot of similarities, and a lot of the same people.” John Bolton, for example, a major Iraq war booster, is back again as Trump’s national security adviser. “We thought you had a stake through your heart,” she says of Bolton. “Nope! Here you are again!” I ask if she, given her experience in Washington, believes there are people within the Trump administration who want war. “Without question,” she answers quickly. “Bolton is Exhibit A.”

EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY This is the Fourth of July, dammit, and it’s one of those holidays America clings to like a barnacle on the good ship Freedom … or something. Look, if you have the day off, you could do a lot worse than hitting up some public events. Do these instead of terrorizing the pets in your own neighborhood, OK? USA! USA! USA! (Alex De Vore)

ART OPENING FRI/5 DON’T LOOK AWAY Photojournalists catch the most vital moments of our time, but even the most striking and painful images can lose their punch. The horrors of war may not fade, but the sucker-punch served by Vietnam War photos may not smart as much for Gen X’ers or millennials. Enter Living in History, a contemporary exhibition breathtaking in every sense of the word: beautiful, poignant, often relentlessly sad, and impossibly relevant. These photos, all taken since Sept. 11, 2001, represent what photojournalists are revealing about our current times, from the Syrian refugee crisis to Standing Rock. Add to the soup that journalists are under worse attack every day by our president, and these young photogs’ work becomes more important than we ever could have imagined. (CJ) Living in History: 5 pm July 5. Free. Through Sept. 22. Monroe Gallery of Photography, 112 Don Gaspar Ave., 992-0800

MUSIC SUN/7 BILLIONS After musician/producer Bill Palmer left Frogville Studios last year, his newfound mobile recording and production business exploded with acts both local and from afar. He’s since built up quite a roster of musicians, so when he wanted to showcase the array of acts he’d been recording, a would-be small concert at Tumbleroot took on a life of its own and evolved organically into Billfest—a title started as a joke by participating musicians, and one that stuck. Palmer’s set to repeat the process with a bigger lineup and two stages at Billfest 2, which features bands like his own TV Killers, Austin’s Pike & Sutton and locals like Simon Lee-Plunket, Dust City Opera and more. Says Palmer, “This is a small but mighty representation of the world class talent that I’m fortunate to work with.” Mighty, indeed. (ADV) Billfest 2: 8:30 pm Sunday July 7. Free. Tumbleroot Brewery & Distillery, 2791 Agua Fría St., 225-1600
MUSIC TUE/9
Contemporary Camaraderie Come for the tunes, stay for the friendship Guster fans can be pretty intense. Not only do they fiercely love the band’s music (which is hard to classify; it’s maybe some hybrid of indie, pop, rock, classic rock and new-age, with plenty of gags thrown in), but they fiercely love each other. As a result, Guster shows are festival-style affairs, with tons of love spread between audience and band alike, inside jokes galore and, on at least one occasion, a cake shared among attendees. When we ask frontman Ryan Miller what it is that makes everyone so amicable at their concerts, he says, “I think that part of it is that we’ve always tried to be very sincere, and tried to trade in verisimilitude. We try not to condescend. I think that ethos of our band, where you make fun of yourself, or you call yourself out if you miss something, or you’re gracious—I think that kind of thing creates an environment and a fan base that appreciates that.” Beyond just the kindness of the folks in attendance, of course the music is the basis of what brings everyone togeth-
er. Since the debut record Parachute in 1994, momentum has only built and their sound has only evolved; and the band’s latest release, Look Alive, which was recorded during a frigid winter in a keyboard museum in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, is a slight departure for the quartet. It appropriately has a “icy, cold” sound, as opposed to the vintage-style warmth of the band’s previous records. A chilly digital vibe pervades the record, and Miller says it was just what he was looking for in this political climate (no pun intended); “something that felt more contemporary and zeitgeisty.” Don’t miss Guster’s first-ever Santa Fe show this week, and be sure to wear something with rainbows or cactuses. Don’t miss our extended interview with Miller online at SFReporter.com. (Charlotte Jusinski)

ummer’s going, which we know because it was so hot the other night we lay awake weeping (with respect to places that actually get hot)— and because the musical offerings are many and, like, pretty good. Let’s take a look, shall we? Seminal punk rock weirdos X return to Santa Fe this very night (7:30 pm Wednesday July 3. $30-$35. The Bridge at Santa Fe Brewing Co., 37 Fire Place, 557-6182), and the aging punk rock set (in which I include myself ) has taken notice. We’ve heard disturbing rumors about frontwoman Exene Cervenka’s love of conspiracy theories, but an inde-
pendent study kind of had us thinking the mainstream media tried their best to latch on to a thin story. We’ll investigate more, but we’d caution that those driving cars are already kicked out of Punk Club. The following day is the Fourth of July, and if you’re not too busy protecting your animals from the terrors of fireworks shot off in the streets by a bunch of geniuses (not a joke—I really am sorry your pets are going to spend the day scared), there are a few Independence Day music options around town. Our best advice, and because space here is limited, is to flip to page 18 or pick something out at sfreporter.com/cal. Come Friday July 5 and the weekend, find lots more in the music realm from the Hail, Hail Rock ’n’ Roll: Happy 50th, Woodstock! event at Edition One Gallery (5 pm. Free. Through Aug. 9. 728 Canyon Road, 5705385), which is a showcase of photos

having to do with the mother of all music festivals—all the way to David Berkeley going solo and smooth at sunset in the Santa Fe Botanical Garden (5:30 pm. $3-$10. 715 Camino Lejo, 471-9103). We’ve heard Berkeley’s kinda-indie, kinda-Americana, kinda-sexy jamz before, and he’s pretty, pretty, pretty good. The Pearl Fishers is also going that night up at the Santa Fe Opera (8:30 pm. $32-$320. 301 Opera Drive, 986-5900) and, as you can read on page 26, it’s a damn fine show. Come Saturday July 6, you’ll find soooooo maaaaaaany jaaaaaaamz, but let us first start with a mention of a visual arts event that is linked to music: Eliza Lutz’s How We Are Harrowed (1-6 pm. Free. Show Pony Gallery, 50 Franklin Ave.), an exhibit of the artwork that goes with the upcoming July 7 release of her band Future Scars’ newest, Harrow. Note also the return of Hot Honey, a band with members who’ve scattered to the far reaches of other cities, at the Mine Shaft Tavern (3 pm. Free. 2846 Hwy. 14, Madrid, 473-0743) and, if nighttime shows are more your thing, former Heartless Bastards fronthuman Erika Wennerstrom hits Meow Wolf (8 pm. $18-$22. 1352 RufinaCircle, 395-6369) with her new (and presumably improved) solo tunes. If you’re not too Madrid-ed out on Sunday July 7, formerly local countryrock-outlaw-hat enthusiast Anthony Leon makes a return to the Mine Shaft as well (3 pm. Free. 2846 Hwy. 14, Madrid, 473-0743). We’ve always liked how Leon lays out his feelings both good and bad, and how some of those songs fucking RAWK. Elsewhere, find Rebecca Black— who will NEVER live down her peak YouTube song “Friday”—at Meow Wolf along with LA art rocker Man Man (8 pm. $16$18. 1352 Rufina Circle, 395-6369). We kid about Black, but the truth is, she probably made some serious bucks off that truly awful song and also has a new-

ish song called “Anyway” out now—and don’t you just kind of want to check it out because of how weird it might be? Yeah, you do. This brings us to Monday July 8, and a day wherein your only options are hotels and casinos. I’d get into all the shows here, but I already done told you about that calendar before, plus—most of them have been going down in the same rooms for decades. OK, fine, I’ll tell you about one, but only because I’m a fan: Consummate country badass Bill Hearne returns to the La Fiesta Lounge at the La Fonda (7:30 pm. Free. 100 E San Francisco St., 982-5511) with his signature blend of feel-good and feel-bad country tunes. Did you catch the gigantic story I wrote on Hearne earlier this year? If not, it’s easy to find: just hit Google and type “Bill Hearne’s Excellent Adventure.” Finally, Tuesday rolls around again, and if you’re reading this on that day, I’d like you to picture me at my desk freaking the eff out over deadline day and the many mean calls and emails I get that say things like “I play a nonstop barrage of cover songs, Alex, and I know you technically stopped writing the music column nearly a year ago, but I’m mad at you that I’m not getting a good review!” And then in my head, the review is like, “Some goob played a bunch of songs we already know, and it was pretty boring.” And then I laugh, and then you feel me thinking those thoughts through the cosmos and get all choked up for some reason. Anyway, the “big” show, as it were, would be the whole Chango (ohmygod, Chango plays covers and is probably coming to kill me, or at least composing a truly brilliant Facebook rebuttal) and Billy D and the Hoodoos thing that’s part of the Santa Fe Bandstand. Find that starting at 6 pm on the Plaza for no dollars at all. Ah, free music. Summer. Friendship. Jokes. Laughing. Hurt feelings. Face punches. Life’s alright, y’know? See y’all next time!

Tales From the Tailgate In the Santa Fe Opera parking lot, tailgating is a longstanding tradition B Y M O L LY B O Y L E a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
A
Google search for “opera tailgate” yields only one result: the Santa Fe Opera. There, in the Crosby Theatre’s twotiered parking lot, Santa Fe’s most peculiar rite of conspicuous consumption kicked off last Friday night. A few hours before the season opener of La Bohème, card tables sported linens and charcuterie, candelabras sat atop Hondas, and a tuxedo-clad crew strolled the rows of cars with “walkin’-around wine.” For the umpteenth year in a row—about the sum longtime tailgaters agree upon—the onlyin-Santa-Fe ostentation of the pre-opera picnic was in fine form. The exact origins are unwritten. Neither newspaper archives, nor founder John Crosby’s biography, nor any other histories of the Santa Fe Opera reveal how a pre-concert repast became a parking lot performance. Its history is largely oral—a fitting medium for a tale that boils down to a meal. By some accounts, the tradition of tailgating at the 62-year-old Santa Fe Opera probably dates back as far as the late 1950s, when patrons began to bring dinners to eat in their cars in the early evening. Attendees headed to the original El Nido in
Tailgaters revel at the recent opening night of the Santa Fe Opera’s 2019 season.
Tesuque beforehand, but restaurants were scarce near the opera, and folks needed to lay down a firm foundation of food before a three-hour performance. Scottie Dunshee and Frank Rolla date their parking lot patronage to the 1970s, when they’d arrive to picnic and jockey for position in the unruly line for standing-room tickets. They agree the setups grew more extravagant over time, perhaps along the lines of the exhibitionistic ’80s; after years of pre-opera picnicking at the White Rock Overlook, opera-goer Winnie Gido says she brought her moveable feast to the then-dirt parking lot around then. “It was really better to be at the parking lot because we always had Champagne,” she admits. “I remember reading about it in the newspaper, and I guess that’s why we decided to go down, because it just sounded like everyone went way out to make their tables beautiful.” That they do. A 19th-century iron reading stand showcases the lavishly printed multiple-course menu and wine pairings of John Berkenfield’s friends on opening night. Berkenfield upholds the tradition with a group of couples that was already going strong when he joined more than 20 years ago.
“At our table, we really go for the looks,” he says. “[My friend] Tom breaks out the fine china and the fine flatware, we’re all linen, and we have table decorations that are really beautiful. And we dress. We love the look of a very, very elegant table.” Berkenfield, the former executive director of El Rancho de las Golondrinas, says his group has introduced new traditions over the years. They now invite a local artist to join them on opening night (painter Francisco Benitez last Friday). And, so as not to interfere with their leisurely jaunt around the lot with Berkenfield’s wines, they hire a server to help set up, serve and break down the elaborate tableau. Other seasoned tailgaters became hooked by the challenge of customizing menus to particular operas. Gido, who over the years has pared down her guest list from as many as 40 to this year’s more reasonable 10, served a Gallic feast on opening night that began with a fish terrine and green salad, moved onto stuffed chicken breasts and finished with a burnt-orange Bavarian cream with brown sugar and chocolate cookies. Syndii McCreary, who began hosting her own tailgates when her son debuted in the
A&C
Opera’s children’s choir in 2005, fondly remembers her Russian peasant-themed menu for 2017’s The Golden Cockerel. “One of the recipes called for this specific kind of Russian cheese that we don’t have access to. So I went to Cheesemongers and they helped research what this cheese was like and found something that was comparable,” she says before waxing sentimental over that year’s dessert: an apricot mousse served with a shot of chocolate-infused vodka. Longtime tailgaters maintain that fashion sets the tone. Carnival masks, beaded gowns, wigs, top hats, tails and, for Norman Doggett, a truly spectacular hat. From 2004 to 2011, Doggett and his wife bestowed a handmade themed chapeau upon Doggett’s visiting fatherin-law, Eric Yost. These included a 10-pound tropical fruit-laden Carmen Miranda number for Carmen in 2006, and a 3-foot-tall balsa wood Eiffel Tower atop a hard hat for 2007’s production of La Bohème. The 2012 hat was constructed in remembrance of Yost, who had passed away the previous year. Otherwise, most of the old guard agrees the volume of over-the-top tailgating seems to have died down in recent years. But the sheer novelty of dining with opera-loving friends, neighbors and strangers in a parking lot keeps them coming back—come rain, hail or wind that once caused one couple’s large salmon fillet to take flight. Berkenfield recalls one year when, despite meticulous planning, an essential was forgotten: the table. He asked a nearby man in a buckskin shirt and jeans if his friends could join them, whereupon he made a discovery. “We get some guy to let us join his family at a table, and it turns out that his brother and I were very close friends for years working for IBM in Paris,” Berkenfield explains. On that panoramic hill overlooking the Sangre de Cristos, world-class opera can make for a very small world.

Roughly a year ago, a ragtag group of artists, makers, businesspeople and clairvoyants teamed together to create Dandelion Guild, a co-op events space, maker’s boutique and vintage clothing store (among other things). On Saturday July 6 (3-6 pm. Free. 1925 Rosina St., Ste. H, 820-0847), those people are set to celebrate the milestone along with a vegan cake from Danielle’s Donuts, readings from Kasandra M, music from Westin McDowell and Greg Butera and more. We found founder Calixte Raifsnider to see what’s up. (Alex De Vore) So, here we are at the year mark—what’s the consensus? Mission accomplished?

I think Dandelion Guild is always evolving and changing, and I also don’t think of it as a progress model so much as a collaboration or a communication that’s happening. It’s this thing that basically has a life of its own at this point—I’m very much there and feeding and nurturing it, and it’s not unlike a 1-year-old child who needs a lot of feeding and nurturing. But at the same time, there are all of these people who have a relationship with the shop that has nothing to do with me, and it feels successful in that I feel like I’m honoring this process and holding space for it. As far as being the end of a logical goal … it’s not really that.

I think it’s always exciting to see something you’ve been imagining come to life, and in that way, it’s exceeded my wildest expectations in terms of the people I’ve gotten to work with and who’ve approached me. On a fairly regular basis I get contacted by someone who blows me away with their talent and creativity, so that is surprising and exciting and fun for me.

What does the future hold for Dandelion Guild? That’s part of the conversation, and I’m just trying to hold space for that, and there’s definitely a lot of energy around all of it. People seem really excited, they show up for events, to support local makers, they get really excited about the vintage clothing. I think I’m just trying to figure out how to follow those threads, and if there’s any one of those that I would like to emphasize more. I think at the one-year mark, it’s only natural to get into a place of reflection and think about what’s working and what’s not working, so I’m open to what’s going to happen.

The cast’s vocal performances were fantastic (if, as in the case of Chang, perhaps sometimes quiet). Their acting performances, however, lacked energy. The slapstick antics of the Bohemians in the first scene felt perfunctory and forced; an audience member listening carefully may have been charmed, but one watching closely likely wondered how much sleep the performers had gotten the night before. Didn’t look like much. Soloman Howard as Colline in particular should be singled out for his beautiful, thick bass tones, and Will Liverman’s Schaunard was probably the most jaunty of the crew, but largely they left me feeling a bit tired. (Thank goodness for Dale Travis’ funny and lecherous Benoit, the landlord; a small role for sure, but an extremely effective one that injected a little performance caffeine into the tiny attic apartment.) Marcello was made broody and tortured by the rich-voiced Zachary Nelson, and I was thankful for his performance as well. In contrast to the perhaps draggy cast was Laubacher’s aforementioned set, which exploded with elements and moving pieces to a dizzying extent. Especially overwhelming was the second scene, in which the action moves from the Bohemians’ apartment into the Parisian street outside the Café Momus, complete with Parpignol’s toy cart, ice-skating sweethearts and a boisterous parade moving through. For the most part the first three acts worked, if they weren’t a bit busy by way of set design; however, the whole thing kind of fell apart in the fourth act (no pun intended). A very long and silent scene change from a tavern back into the glass-walled Bohemians’ apartment was

T
he Santa Fe Opera’s 63rd season opens with an ambitious undertaking by director Mary Birnbaum, an attempt to breathe new life into Giacomo Puccini’s oft-performed 1890s romantic tragedy. Now, I am not one of those folks who rolls their eyes at yet another staging of La Bohème (in truth, I really love it), but I do think there has to be a solid reason to put on such a potentially exhausted show, for the 12th time in SFO’s history no less, other than, “Its ticket sales will help keep the rest of the season afloat.” In that vein, I’m not entirely sure I know why this production came to pass. Of course, there were many lovely aspects. Soprano Vanessa Vasquez’ Mimì had a voice sweeter than crème caramel (as did tenor Mario Chang’s Rodolfo, when you could hear him), Camellia Koo’s costumes, particularly for the ensemble, made for an immensely pleasing visual experience, and conductor Jader Bignamini kept the Italian score lively where necessary, drippy with syrup elsewhere. Even Grace Laubacher’s scenic design, which did have a few significant hangups, came from an inspired place; particularly the third act was delightfully atmospheric. But largely, it was a piece in which you could see what the production team was trying to accomplish, while acquiescing that they didn’t quite get there.
excruciating (but the audience waited very politely), and a heavy-handed effect in the very last tragic moment of the story hit like a brick. No spoilers, but you can’t miss it. Ambition was the name of the game here, and the theme of states of water was one of Birnbaum’s intended motifs. At a short talk at a dress rehearsal for this production, Birnbaum expressed the desire to look at liquid in act one through rain; ice in act two through ice-skaters; snow in act three through what ended up a small and awkward snow machine; and a slow thaw in act four, though perhaps not one that is particularly welcoming, given the plot points. Those ice-skaters most notably featured Musetta, portrayed by Gabriella Reyes, who looked positively shaky on rollerblades. The idea of the flashy (and I do mean flashy as her sequined romper was a sight to behold) singer blasting onstage on wheels is a fun one, and something I was excited about in theory. In practice, however, I was just amazed she was able to sound so good while seeming so ready to fall down. It was yet another almost-there ambitious move that compounded with other almost-there ambitious moves to create something that does come along with the desired act-four thaw: mud. In all, it’s impossible for La Bohème to not be beautiful. I mean, it is what it is; so this production was indeed a pleasure to listen to and often a feast for the eyes. But like luxuriating in a lush field of wildflowers with a screaming pack of second-graders a few yards away, despite the glory, there were a few unavoidable things I just wish could have been different. LA BOHÈME
The set of La Bohème was a busy affair, crowded with sequins and ice skaters and Bohemians and ensemble members in hues of Jordan almonds.
Roller Coasters and Pools of Honey The Pearl Fishers at the Santa Fe Opera
A
t Santa Fe Opera dramaturge Cori Ellison’s prelude talk before opening night of The Pearl Fishers, she often mentioned the problematic use of Orientalism in 19th-century art from Western Europe. French composer Georges Bizet wrote the opera when he was only 24, and in it was music pilfered from pieces he wrote even earlier in his life; so, not only does the Ceylon (Sri Lanka)-based story employ troublesome tropes about Easterners, it also features the idealism of youth, the lushness of infantile romance and no lack of adolescent-feeling passion. SFO’s presentation this year, a revival of its highly successful 2012 production, doesn’t try to be anything other than what it is: an epic staging of a dramatic love story set in an exotic locale. Unlike this season’s La Bohème, which perhaps took on too many extraneous themes to thrust itself into relevance, The Pearl Fishers, directed by Shawna Lucey, eases back on its heels and lets the story do the talking. Albeit with inspired scenery from Jean-Marc Puissant, gasp-inducing lighting from Rich Fisher and nimble conducting from Timothy Myers, perhaps the story had some help, but still—it’s not trying to be anything that Bizet did not write. Rather than triteness, into which a production like this could easily and probably happily skip, The Pearl Fishers is breathtaking, engrossing and deeply satisfying. As the scene opens on a shore in Ceylon, the townspeople elect Zurga (baritone Anthony Clark Evans) to be their new leader. In short order, prodigal son Nadir (Ilker Arcayürek, tenor) appears. Nadir has been traveling the world, and has returned to his homeland to reunite with Zurga, his childhood best friend; the two sing the opera’s most famous duet, “Au fond

du temple saint,” in brotherly harmony. Where the actors may have lacked chemistry with one another, each’s sublime tones made up for any perceived lack. The story they tell is a touching one: Years ago, they both fell in love with a priestess, Leïla. But in order to preserve their friendship, they both swore her off and promised their friendship was stronger than that desire. Cool, cool. But then! A boat appears on the shore; seated inside is an elegant veiled woman (of course, we know it is Leïla—Corinne Winters, of whose fan club I would like to be president, and more on that later). Nadir staggers to a corner of the stage, clearly in the throes of romantic paralysis. She sings, and he knows it’s her. Arcayürek becomes a lovesick teenager before our very eyes, and it’s thrilling. Zurga tells Leïla that she is not to break her priestly virtue, lest she meet an immediate death. She agrees to that, also recognizing Nadir. She’s whisked away by Brahman priest Nourabad (a menacing Robert Pomakov) to a secluded grotto where she can rest chastely. Predictably, Nadir goes to find her in her hiding place, and they embrace in sweet, giddy passion. Predictably, Zurga finds out. Predictably, it doesn’t go terribly well. There’s rain, there’s fire, there’s destruction. The staging of this one is positively exciting (especially for someone like me, who wasn’t in Santa Fe in summer 2012), and the swift story moves along at such a clip that you simply can’t risk looking away; either that, or leaves us languid and happy in a pool of musical honey, and neither is a bad thing. Truly, the audience were too entranced to even clap at the end of some
arias, and I fear the cast and orchestra may have perceived that as dissatisfaction. It was precisely the opposite. You could have heard a pin drop in the Crosby Theatre; we were all rapturously holding our breath. The ensemble was an integral part of the magic, a fine-tuned machine of expert dynamics that was alternately buoyant, mournful, whispering or jubilant when the libretto required. The youthful and exuberant conducting from Myers led the orchestra like a roller coaster, nimbly conquering a score that was inspired by Eastern motifs but firmly European in sound, lush and heartbreaking and exhilarating all at once. Poised like the cherry on top of the rich sundae of this opera was soprano Winters. The 36-year-old star was an absolute joy to watch on the stage. Winters clearly adores singing; even in the saddest of pleas for leniency from Zurga, she remains effervescent, flitting around the stage like an iridescent hummingbird. Finally, as the opera slides toward its conclusion, the humanity we have already seen in Leïla and Nadir spreads to Zurga. The leader becomes a mortal human at the sight of the fierce, powerful and beautiful Leïla, and stereotypes crumble at their feet: Yes, perhaps this opera’s larger “exotic” themes are dated firmly to the 1800s, but the visceral humanity of its principal characters brings the audience poignantly but happily back to Earth.

Salivary sleight-of-hand at Santa Fe Oxygen & Healing Bar’s Apothecary
BY ZIBBY WILDER a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
I
could smell it before I could see it, and I wondered how it was that I had failed to see it or smell it before. I walk West San Francisco Street all the time, but perhaps get too caught up in thinking about a big glass of wine, where I could put that eye-catching piece of pottery or how to politely dodge the dude with the miracle cream ridding the world of wrinkles. Anyway, whatever the reason, that magical smell overcame the commotion that is downtown Santa Fe in summer, or maybe just the inside of my head, and lured me in. I wasn’t expecting what I found inside the Apothecary restaurant at the Santa Fe Oxygen & Healing Bar. There definitely was oxygen available, but the space itself seemed to breathe its own healthy mix of positivity and radiance, helped along by the expansive menu of things that looked really good for you—and are really good for you. Master healer and serial entrepreneur Kadimah Levanah helms the enterprise of wellness that is the Apothecary restaurant as well as the Santa Fe Oxygen & Healing Bar, Sanctuary Spa and the Kaverns (a performance and art space). Along with her children, Miriam, Noah and Mya Kass, Levanah has built a mini-empire of natu-
Beyond the oxygen and healing spa treatments, Levanah explains the progression of opening a restaurant. “It made sense to keep integrating how to ‘alchemize’ food,” she says. “We live in such a culture of satisfaction, eating food that doesn’t serve our bodies; there’s a disconnect between healthy food and what tastes good.” The Apothecary bridges that gap. “All of our drinks and food contain the products that we create and carry,” Levanah continues. “I feel what people want and need for their well-being, so I created comfort food that is alchemized: It’s medicine that meets their needs, just delivered differently.” And deliciously, I might add. The Apothecary’s offerings are completely gluten-free and mostly housemade; the produce is sustainably farmed, and its meat and fish come from responsible producers (and with price tags to match). Though many options are vegan, proteins such as shrimp and chicken can be added based on what you and your body are craving. And if ZIBBY WILDER

ral health along West San Francisco street. “We have a high volume of business at our spa across the street, and people were wondering where they could eat healthy food after a treatment,” says Levanah. “I realized there was a gap in the need for food like that in Santa Fe; food that is highly nourishing and tastes good, even decadent and rich, but was purposefully healthy.” After a dinner party, a friend noted how much she had enjoyed Levanah’s cooking. That little nudge proved to be just the inspiration she was seeking. “This is how I cook at home, so it was delightful to have someone recognize its quality,” Levanah tells SFR. Now open just over two years, the Apothecary does indeed offer quality food, smoothies, teas and elixirs, but also a space that promotes healing. In the time I was there, many diners stopped in to eat then moved to a cozy couch nearby for a stimulating oxygen session. Having just returned from sea level, and with allergies on full attack, the combination did seem to be a smart one.
The yucca crust mandala pizza at Apothecary pretty much changes everything.
FOOD
you’re thinking, “Well, my body craves meat and potatoes, not this woo-woo health stuff,” perhaps you should stop in for a bite of one of their best sellers: wise buffalo stew ($21) made of two-day slow-cooked locally sourced buffalo, achiote squash, potatoes, carrots, greens, onions, mild green chile and “secret touches.” If your cravings are of a deeper kind, CBD can be added to any dish (15 mg for $4 or 30 mg for $6). I was craving pretty much anything as my belly rumbled with the aromas wafting through the space, so I tried lots of things. I didn’t find one dish I didn’t like. It was all impressive, made even more so by the fact that it was all good for me—from the jackfruit Frito pie ($12) to the Butterfinger smoothie ($9.50). Other standouts included the vegan menage-a-trois nachos ($15), featuring vegan nacho cheese with probiotics, beans, roasted poblano chile, guacamole and fire-roasted salsa with organic blue corn tortilla crisps; the om-mani pad thai ($14) with tamarind-almond teriyaki sauce, mung bean noodles, pea and mung bean sprouts, cabbage, carrots, red pepper and toasted almond garnish served with tofu; the happy house pho (half $12, full $16.50) with fresh tonic herbs including ginger, garlic, galangal, jujubes, hibiscus, goji berries, sweet potato noodles, and Asian vegetables; and the yucca crust mandala pizza (small $13, large $17) which comes in four savory preparations: caprese, mediterranean, pesto or turkey pepperoni. Though I am generally waffle-averse, I also tried the Saint Hildegard blue corn waffle ($12) made of fresh ground blue corn, cacao, and maca topped with fresh coconut whipped cream, seasonal berries and chocolate hemp seeds. As I chewed my first bite, Levanah asked what I thought. I answered: “How do you describe something you’ve never tasted before?” And then I devoured the rest of that delicious, healthy waffle. It was just what my body needed.

All you need is a better movie
BEST MOVIE EVER

BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

It’s difficult to know where to begin when it comes to the shortcomings of Yesterday, Danny Boyle’s (Slumdog Millionaire) newest and a veritable marathon of problematic lessons and shitty behavior, but I’m gonna try. There will be spoilers, so consider yourself warned. It is the present, and a young British singersongwriter named Jack (newcomer Himesh Patel) slogs through the obstacles of whatever antiquated ideas he’s somehow associated with “making it.” Nobody cares, except his biggest fan and manager Ellie (Baby Driver’s Lily James), a manic pixie dream girl type who has been hopelessly in love with Jack since high school (and who cites her “frizzy hair” as a possible reason that she hasn’t been noticed because UGH). But of course, he’s never noticed. Puke. And then the electricity of the planet zaps out for 12 seconds for reasons never explained, and every non-Jack person on Earth forgets that The Beatles ever existed. At first Jack’s weirded out, but then, as any rational person would do, he decides to capitalize on their objectively awesome songs and pass them off as his own. He does, gets famous and realizes he loved the girl all along—but uh-oh, she’s developed self-respect just long enough to keep the drama going. In the end, she forgives him because of course she does because this movie is terrible.
9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 WORST MOVIE EVER
+ SOME BEATLES SONGS ARE GREAT - FUCKING ED SHEERAN; THE MESSAGE; THE MOTIVE
It’s important to note that it’s fun to hear revised versions of The Beatles’ well-worn songs, but from the moment Ed fucking Sheeran hits the screen, Yesterday descends into a dangerous mess of tired cinematic romance tropes, magic realism we don’t even want to accept for fun and other nonsensical aspects too boring to get into here. Instead, allow me to give you a little list of reasons to skip this movie altogether: • Sheeran’s portrayal of himself paints the “Shape of You” singer as a stunted man-child brimming with jealousy, narcissism and bad ideas. Instead of being funny, it seems too real, and I believe the filmmakers that this is what he’s like. • SNL’s Kate McKinnon as manager to Sheeran and eventually Jack is so lacking in dimension, even she is probably someplace cringing at the character’s poor dialogue and utterly unfunny presence in the film. • Patel may bring a quiet vulnerability to the role of Jack at first, but by the end of the film, as he’s live-streaming his longtime friend and potential love partner’s image onto a buildingsized screen at Wembley Stadium without her
consent during an ill-conceived grand public gesture—a friend who, by the way, has a fucking boyfriend who helped Jack record the pilfered songs in the first act FOR FUCKING FREE—it’s clear he’s a self-absorbed dick as bad as Sheeran, and that he learned literally nothing from The Beatles’ message of love (not counting songs like “Run For Your Life” because, frankly, The Beatles themselves were not so great in that regard, thank you very much) and who cares very little for how his actions affect those he supposedly cares about. Thus, Yesterday reinforces dangerous messaging, such as pining nets results and that it’s OK to hurt people you say you love so long as you place them in very public and potentially humiliating situations. This thing’s just gonna piss you off.

THE THIRD WIFE

+ BEAUTIFULLY SHOT; THE AESTHETICS
- BORING; FIZZLES
Whereas the vast world of Asian cinema making its way to the US usually hails from China or Japan, freshman filmmaker Ash Mayfield’s origins are in Vietnam. It’s there that she sets her debut work, The Third Wife. It’s sometime in the 19th century, a combination of traditional Vietmanese aesthetics, arts and architecture and a rapidly changing world. In some rural area of the country, 14-year-old May (Nguyen Phuong Tra My—who, despite her recent foray into film, is easily the best performance) is wed to an uber-rich silk farmer/merchant. Sex and stuff happens. May is the man’s third wife and new to the concepts of adulthood, particularly the sexual, but his other wives form sisterly bonds with May, and advice both good and bad is proffered. Let it never be said that Mayfield’s sense of visual storytelling is lacking. The Third Wife charms and astounds visually from scene to scene, be it the lighting and camera angles of a delicate yet jarring scene wherein May loses her virginity, or something as simple as feet cooling in a stream. All the while, the lifecycle

of silk worms plays out beautifully, a parallel to May’s own metamorphosis. Outside of the visual, however, The Third Wife drags. May learns the ropes of her new phallocentric lot in life, picking up lessons from her sister wives—with whom her scenes are often the most interesting—and getting

pregnant, but these things happen far too slowly or inconsequentially. Perhaps this is meant to pace us, and though slow burn can spell beauty in film, here, more often than not, the next scene or piece of information dangles in the distance too long and resolutions are doled out at a frustrating rate. This feels self-

indulgent rather than worthy of patience, and if the ultimate payoff is that it sucked to be a woman at that time, we definitely agree, but it’s not something that is ever addressed meaningfully. Thus, beauty or not, The Third Wife sort of fizzles out toward the end and leaves far more questions than answers. May sorta-kinda experiences an awakening, but neither she nor her sister wives captivated us enough for it to feel like that big a deal. The Third Wife pretty much goes nowhere. (ADV)

+ FASCINATING IN THEORY; CLEAN FOOTAGE
- TEDIOUS; POINTLESS
In the early 1970s, Mexican social anthropologist Santiago Genovés was onboard a plane that wound up hijacked. According to his journals, as a scientist who primarily studied human violence, this was as fascinating an event as could have possibly happened to him. Afterwards, Genovés conceived of an experiment wherein he would gather different types of men and women, set them adrift aboard an isolating raft during a three-month CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

transatlantic voyage and, if his hypotheses were true, gain insight into whether violence is ingrained or learned. In practice, not much actually happened onboard the raft Acali, save a bizarre media blitz that focused on sexual what-if scenarios. Findings, it turns out, were inconclusive at best, unusable at worst, and Genovés ultimately slipped into a mild form of dementia, turning the crew against him rather than one another as he’d hoped. Documentarian Marcus Lindeen revisits the Acali in The Raft, a bit of a records update and a bit of a reunion for surviving members of the voyage. Lindeen goes so far as to rebuild a scale replica of the Acali on a soundstage, allowing the original members of the fateful experiment to explore it once more and trigger longdormant memories or speak plainly together for the first time in more than 40 years. These bits are indeed interesting, and probably quite cathartic for those who were there. Through a combination of wonderfully preserved footage from the original experiment and modern-day conversations, a picture begins to unfold. In attempts to cause rifts between genders, Genovés placed women in the leadership roles and fostered sexual envy at every turn. Eventually, however, he became so obsessed with coming to predetermined conclusions about confrontation, aggression and violence that his ego drove him to the brink of cruelty and, interestingly, physical sickness. Elsewhere, other than a painful display of primitive violence against a shark, the subjects disproved his

theories at almost every turn—right up until they began contemplating Genovés’ murder. Lindeen only explores this concept superficially, however (and as is easily found online, no murders occurred). Still, it might have been interesting to dig deeper into the motivations behind secret meetings spurred by Genovés’ overbearing methods. In the end, there’s something to be said for how people come together, but the Acali’s data certainly didn’t add anything meaningful to the age-old question of why we fight. Instead, and perhaps this is the point, we learn about resiliency and fortitude. It’s just not particularly fun or worth getting there. (ADV) Center for Contemporary Arts, NR, 97 min.
lower classes? They’re shoved further away from the heart of San Francisco daily, if they can stay at all, and freshman filmmakers Jimmie Fails and Joe Talbot have a thing or two to say about that. The Last Black Man in San Francisco is like a love/hate letter to the city from Fails and Talbot, both natives of the area. Their version of their hometown is long since gone, however, replaced by newcomers with more money than heart and a rapidly changing energy that is unrecognizable to its most steadfast denizens. Fails basically plays himself, a young man living with his best friend Mont (Jonathan Majors, White Boy Rick) and his grandfather (Danny Glover) on the outskirts of the Bay. He longs to reclaim the one-time family home, a massive Victorian purportedly built by his grandfather in the 1940s and lost in the ’90s. With his family scattered, he and Mont visit the house regularly, touching up the paint, making plans to clean the garden and, when it winds up vacated, squatting inside and reclaiming the space. Fails and Talbots’ script is smart and subtle in its exposing of hard realities. There is no preaching or beating of the chest here; rather, the things that happen happen quietly, without fanfare, like the events of our own real lives. It is not fantastical or overwrought, instead clever and nuanced, particularly with Mont, a gentle soul, playwright and artist who’d follow

- NOT FOR THE IMPATIENT
There was probably a time in San Francisco when the everyman and everywoman and every-enby could make their way. But that was so long ago, nobody can remember. The dot-com world took over, of course, and the City by the Bay descended into the unaffordable at best, the downright ludicrous at worst; a recent study found that median rent cost had surpassed $3,500. But what of the natives and the non-tech folk? The people of color and the middle and

Jimmie to the ends of the earth if he asked. Fails impresses as well with his tender portrayal of a dreamer type whose priorities were skewed so long ago, he can barely remember why he made them. Peripheral characters provide context and motive, but without feeling relegated to expositional devices; each plays a vital part, each represents another endangered part of the city. It all works to a heartbreaking head that won’t be spoiled here, but the overall message rings true enough for anyone from any place: People aren’t one thing, and we should never place our faith or identities into a single house, profession, box; maybe we need to leave the debris behind to make room for something truly amazing.

MEN IN BLACK: INTERNATIONAL
4
+ HEMSWORTH’S TORSO - DEAD TIRED FRANCHISE; THE REST OF HEMSWORTH
The appeal of Chris Hemsworth continues to elude me in Men in Black: International, a tired reboot of the exhausted popcorn movie franchise about aliens and the government agents who hunt them. The temptation to make a Meh in Black joke at this point is overwhelming indeed, but we’re trying to run a classy operation here. Hemsworth takes over the role of veteran Agent M from Tommy Lee Jones, and that’s the movie’s biggest problem—Jones’ deadpan attitude and delivery were a critical fuel source in the first three films, which maintained a dry comic quality even as the sequel films gradually declined. MIB has always been a second-tier comic book series anyway, but its wry sense of itself was its distinguishing characteristic, and that was only jazzed up by the undeniable comic chemistry between Jones and Will Smith. Such attitude and chemistry are largely absent in this new installation, which brings aboard Tessa Thompson (Hemsworth’s costar in Thor: Ragnarok) as the agency’s newest Person in Black. The film tosses in a couple of throwaway jokes to explain away the gender dilemma and they’re pretty good, actually, thanks to the reliable comic instincts of Emma Thompson, here MIB’s big boss. The Thompson twins are, in fact, the film’s greatest assets; Tessa and Emma have the funniest scenes, individually and together, and each brings a kind of poise that plays nicely against the frantic direction by F Gary Gray (Straight Outta Compton). They never quite replicate Jones’ deadpan counterpoint maneuvers, but they at least understand the value of them. So much of the comedy in this franchise pivots on attitude, on the characters and their

Hemsworth never finds an effective frequency for his Agent M, sadly, and he flatlines gag after gag with overdone posturing and oversold charm. He does,however, look absolutely fantastic in bespoke summerwear shirts cut to optimize his intrinsic awesomeness. And I’m not being snarky—I mean it. Aesthetically, you cannot argue with that man’s torso. Story-wise, it’s the usual routine: Aliens threaten Earth, the MIB mobilize, CGI monsters are dispatched, boss fight at the end. The film’s International tag refers to its various exotic locales—Morocco, Italy, London, a fake Paris— but there’s a sheen of flop sweat toward the end as the movie tries desperately to distract you from the inescapable facts: You’ve already seen this movie, and it was better the first time, the second time and the third time.

GODZILLA: KING OF THE MONSTERS

+ INCREDIBLE BATTLES; NOSTALGIA - CHEESY; FAR TOO MANY HINTS OF THE NEXT FLICK’S PLOT
Make way for your favorite movie monster and pals to emerge once again with Godzilla: King of the Monsters, and good grief these guys are a menace! The days of actors in rubber suits trampling over cardboard sets—or even that bad CGI iguana in NYC circa ’99—are all thankfully relics of the past. A sequel to 2014’s Godzilla, the newest entry takes lessons from its predecessor’s lack of monster action, now packing so much in, you’ll worry a bathroom break will rob you of whatever’s on the horizon. Many of the film’s principal actors are recipients of film and television’s highest accolades; Emmys and Golden Globes and such, and their presence is mostly enough to carry weak dialogue or scenes of paper-thin exposition. Vera Farmiga (The Departed) and Kyle Chandler (Peter Jackson’s King Kong) are former spouses grieving the loss of their first child. But they’re also scientists, dammit, both with differing opinions of the creatures (or “Titans,” as the film calls them), and they take action accordingly. Their second child, played by Stranger Things’ Millie Bobby Brown—a character created so a younger audience can have a relatable figure—is caught in the middle of the tug-of-war. Bradley Whitford, Sally Hawkins, Charles Dance, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Aisha Hinds and the great Ken Watanabe fill out the rest of the ensemble cast, and though their talents are certainly underused, it’s good to see them in something so silly that almost anything can be forgiven. Besides, one doesn’t go to a Kaiju movie for the narrative structure or in search of moving
performances, but for the spectacle—and we certainly find the spectacular here. With monsters front and center, the visual splendor is quite satisfying. Godzilla and Mothra glow in cool notes of neon blues and greens, while others like King Ghidorah, the three-headed one, accompany violent electric storms saturated in rich yellows and oranges. We see clear shots of the famous monsters battling with coherent editing and no awkward shaky cam close-ups; when the Titans clash, the sound assaults your senses, rupturing eardrums. Even the soundtrack adds to the successful mixing of the effects, accentuating the artificial carnage. But don’t worry, there’s plenty of stereotypical lens flare to distract from the amusingly fake sets. If nothing else, your inner child will love all of it. Although the fanboy cheese is present in every frame, it only tries your patience occasionally. One too many hints were dropped for the next big monster movie, for example, and expect to see your favorite ape thrown into the mix with a wink. In the meantime, leave your analytical sensibilities at the door and enjoy the familiar creatures as they go boom. (Matthew K Gutierrez)

GEORGY was brought to F&F by his former owner’s caregiver after he passed away. He is 15 years old and in good health for his age. He recently had a dental in May and is now ready to go home. GEORGY is a little shy at first, but loves one-on-one attention, and has a very sweet personality. His ideal home would be with someone who is retired or works from home.

COSMO was surrendered to F&F because his family could no longer care for him. It’s kitten season: but at 2 years old COSMO is still quite the “kitten” himself! He is very playful, outgoing and social. He loves attention and is an engaging guy all around. We think he would be happy as an only cat where he could have all your attention, but he might tolerate a gentle cat companion too.

Week of July 3rd
ARIES (March 21-April 19): When the universe began 13.8 billion years ago, there were only four elements: mostly hydrogen and helium, plus tiny amounts of lithium and beryllium. Now there are 118 elements, including five that are key components of your body: oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. All of those were created by nuclear reactions blazing on the insides of stars that later died. So it’s literally true to say that much of your flesh and blood and bones and nerves originated at the hearts of stars. I invite you to meditate on that amazing fact. It’s a favorable time to muse on your origins and your ancestry; to ruminate about all the events that led to you being here today—including more recent decades, as well as the past 13.8 billion years.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “A conversation is a dialogue, not a monologue,” mused Libra author Truman Capote. “That’s why there are so few good conversations: due to scarcity, two intelligent talkers seldom meet.” That cynical formulation has more than a few grains of truth in it, I must admit. But I’m pleased to tell you that I suspect your experience in the coming weeks will be an exception to Capote’s rule. I think you have the potential to embark on a virtual binge of rich discussion and intriguing interplay with people who stimulate and educate and entertain you. Rise to the challenge!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Most American women couldn’t vote until a hundred years ago. Women in Japan, France, and Italy couldn’t vote until the 1940s. Universal suffrage has been a fundamental change in how society is structured. Similarly, same-sex marriage was opposed by vast majorities in most countries until 15 years ago, but has since become widely accepted. African American slavery lasted for hundreds of years before being delegitimized all over the Western world in the nineteenth century. Brazil, which hosted forty percent of all kidnapped Africans, didn’t free its slaves until 1888. What would be the equivalent of such revolutionary transformations in your own personal life? According to my reading of the astrological omens, you have the power to make that happen during the next twelve months. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Gemini musician Paul Weller is famous in the UK, though not so much elsewhere. According to the BBC, he is one of Britain’s “most revered music writers and performers.” To which I say: revered, maybe, but mentally healthy? Not so much. He bragged that he broke up his marriage with his wife Dee C. Lee because “things were going too well, we were too happy, too comfortable, everything seemed too nice.” He was afraid that “as a writer and an artist I might lose my edge.” Don’t you dare allow yourself to get infected with that perverse way of thinking, my dear Gemini. Please capitalize on your current comfort and happiness. Use them to build your strength and resilience for the months and years to come. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Cancerian voice actor Tom Kenny has played the roles of over 1,500 cartoon characters, including SpongeBob SquarePants, Spyro the Dragon, Jake Spidermonkey, Commander Peepers, and Doctor Octopus. I propose that we make him your role model in the coming weeks. It will be a favorable time for you to show your versatility; to demonstrate how multifaceted you can be; to express various sides of your soulful personality. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Leo author Donald Miller reminds us that fear can have two very different purposes. On the one hand, it may be “a guide to keep us safe,” alerting us to situations that could be dangerous or abusive. On the other hand, fear may work as “a manipulative emotion that can trick us into living a boring life.” After studying your astrological indicators for the coming weeks, Leo, I have come to the conclusion that fear may serve both of those functions for you. Your challenge will be to discern between them; to know which situations are genuinely risky and which situations are daunting but promising. Here’s a hint that might help: trust your gut feelings more than your swirling fantasies.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In accordance with astrological rhythms, you are authorized to make the following declarations in the next two weeks: 1. “I refuse to participate further in this situation on the grounds that it might impinge on the expansiveness of my imagination.” 2. “I abstain from dealing with your skepticism on the grounds that doing so might discourage the flights of my imagination.” 3. “I reject these ideas, theories, and beliefs on the grounds that they might pinch, squash, or deflate my imagination.” What I’m trying to tell you, Scorpio, is that it’s crucial for you to emancipate your imagination and authorize it to play uninhibitedly in the frontiers of possibilities. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Dear Sagittarius: I invite you to make a copy of the testimonial below and give it to anyone who is in a position to support your Noble Experiment. “To Whom It May Concern: I endorse this Soulful Sagittarius for the roles of monster-tamer, fun-locator, boredom-transcender, elation-inciter, and mountaintop visionary. This adroit explorer is endowed with charming zeal, disarming candor, and abundant generosity. If you need help in sparking your enthusiasm or galvanizing your drive to see the big picture, call on the expansive skills of this jaunty puzzle-solver.” CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Life will conspire to bring you a surge of love in the coming weeks—if you can handle it. Can you? Will you be able to deal adeptly with rumbling love and icy hot love and mostly sweet but also a bit sour love? Do you possess the resourcefulness and curiosity necessary to have fun with funny spiritual love and runningthrough-the-labyrinth love and unexpectedly catalytic love? Are you open-minded and open-hearted enough to make the most of brilliant shadowy love and unruly sensitive love and toughly graceful love? AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I don’t endlessly champion the “no pain, no gain” theory of personal growth. My philosophy holds that we are at least as likely to learn valuable lessons from pleasurable and joyful experiences as we are from difficult and taxing struggles. Having said that, I also think it’s true that our suffering may lead us to treasure if we know how to work with it. According to my assessment, the coming weeks will bring one such opening for you. To help you cultivate the proper spirit, keep in mind the teaching of Aquarian theologian and author Henri Nouwen. He said that life’s gifts may be “hidden in the places that hurt most.”
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The Japanese word “wabisabi” refers to an interesting or evocative imperfection in a work of art that makes it more beautiful than if it were merely perfect. “Duende” is a Spanish word referring to a work of art that gives its viewers the chills because it’s so emotionally rich and unpredictably soulful. In the coming VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Why do flocks of geese fly in weeks, I think that you yourself will be a work of art with an a V-formation? Because to do so enhances the collective abundance of these qualities. Your wabi-sabi will give you efficiency of their travel. Each bird generates a current the power to free yourself from the oppressive pressures that supports the bird behind it. Let’s make this phenome- of seeking too much precision and purity. Your duende can non one of your power metaphors for the coming weeks. give you the courage you need to go further than you’ve What would be the equivalent strategy for you and your ever dared in your quest for the love you really want. tribe or group as you seek to make your collaborative Homework: “Know thyself—or else! Follow your dreams— efforts more dynamic and productive? Unforeseen help will augment any actions you take in this regard. or else!” Please comment. Truthrooster@gmail.com.
