NEWS, JUNE 28: “STILL IN THE DARK”
THE WILD WEST Lawsuits are the solution to get justice in an uncivilized society. That’s how New Mexicans solve their disputes. Lawsuits only work for those that can afford it in this poor state, and our government knows that very well. The majority of the citizens lick their wounds and continue to struggle to put food on the table. I don’t think we need another agency. We just need the AG to be respected enough that a five-minute phone call explaining the law is enough to get the records custodians to produce the records. This sure beats waiting five months for a legal opinion and saves taxpayers’ dollars. Respect is another value that is lacking in general in New Mexico and is indicative of an uncivilized society. It’s the Wild West here, folks. We need strong and effective leaders who respect the laws and government’s policies and procedures.

AC, JUNE 28: “WHO’S AFRAID OF THE BIG BAD WOLF?”
DIVISIVENESS? Since when was art not involved in business and politics?! There’s no need to force such division and separation in our city that so desperately needs the opposite. If someone is not moved or their thought process are not expanded upon experiencing Meow Wolf, I’m not sure anything could. Critique is fine, warranted even, but let’s be clear that art is a whole range of things, including an experience, which more and more of
us want and seek to have. Art goes beyond things that hang on someone’s walls and MW is proving that with their consistent support for artists in our community. No one else in this city is doing that to this length and that’s what we really should be critiquing. We’re a small and large city with a place for everyone. Jealousy and fearing the Zeitgeist is clearly alive and well.

PHIL LUCERO VIA FACEBOOK
HORSE’S MOUTH Where does art cease to exist or, better yet, what is the point at which the lines presented by this question begin to shift? Homer is considered literature, but long before his stories were written down they were recited, alongside music, at Olympic events. What art is is tangential. Its function is found within the way it reaches the participant, who—upon engaging with the work—fulfills its very intention, to deepen what it is to be the viewer, to walk away from that work and then outward into time as a person changed. This is glorious and profound and, obviously, not something that interacts between every viewer and every work of art. Art is art when it places us nearer to the center of ourselves or to the experience of others. It is not a sole engagement, one on one, with things nor a mass ingestion, say, of a grand performance—these are not measures of its power. Art is when a viewer engages and cannot disengage. Art is when we are changed by what the artist, whether the work is small or assemblage or immersive, presents us with who we are or would be or, if we try very hard, could become, and its works are as diverse as we are ourselves.

I’m intrigued by all the talent that has come together to make such an awesome place. These artists are showcasing their work that probably would have never been shown in a gallery in Santa Fe.

WHAT A GIFT There does not need to be a clear definition for a space that is artistic, entertaining and magical. I’ll admit I was skeptical at first, but after experiencing Meow Wolf, I can honestly say that it is in a class by itself and a gift to this community. The people who invented it, are true artists, and the people who visit it leave happy with their thoughts expanded, so leave it alone and just enjoy the collective immersive experience. They also give back to the community.

COVER, JUNE 21: “PERMANENT COLLECTION”
DON’T DO IT, KIDS I’m a big fan of the Reporter, however, the article on tattoos in the last issue deeply disturbed me. There are many health risks associated with tattoo ink—including heavy metals, cancer and infection. ... Often, the person getting a tattoo doesn’t understand that blood vessels in the skin carry the contaminants throughout the body—skin is not merely a “covering” over the body, but rather part of a connected system. This article will encourage young people to pursue tattoos, not aware of the health risks.
SUSAN GUYETTE SANTA FE
“MORTALLY MATERNAL”
GLARING DISPARITY “Mortally Maternal” is, in my opinion, the most important article I have read in the Reporter. Those of us with interest have had a general idea of these statistics for quite some time. ... Americans should be appalled that we have mortality rates of a third-world nation, and those who still proclaim racism isn’t an issue should examine this article and think. Looking at health statistics and claiming that it is someone’s fault due to lifestyle habits might explain a surface cause, however it is a very shallow exploration. We have to examine why women feel forced or compelled to make those lifestyle choices. It isn’t laziness or ignorance, as so many assume as the primary cause. Even though I am Caucasian, I have walked both sides of the poverty/wealth fence. I thank God that I was wealthy and had the ultimate power to make the decision as to where my three children were born and to a great degree, how they were delivered. … Our mortality rates are inexcusable, and a glaring sign of the disparity in the lives of women and children, as we attempt to navigate life in Western society. We do need to examine our culture here before we criticize others.

You cannot take it back.’ It’s something I tell all my clients, even my corporate clients, especially with ‘reply’ and ‘reply-all.’ That can be a disaster, and people have lost their jobs over that. There isn’t a CEO or a beauty pageant queen who hasn’t been called out on some Facebook post they put up five or eight years ago. For my corporate clients, I tell them not to use their cell phones at networking events. Don’t take down people’s contact information on your phone. You don’t have enough hands, with your hors d’oeuvres, your cocktail—it’s cumbersome. I tell all my clients to have business cards ready to exchange, that way you don’t have to deal with technology at all. If they are going to a business lunch, if they’re expecting an important call or email, announce at the front of the meeting that you might need to step away. Or say to everybody, ‘Why don’t we take three minutes to check our messages right now?’ So there are designated times and you don’t have a table top full of smartphones.

SFR: In 2008, I asked your thoughts on the presidential race between Obama and McCain. You were very concerned that, during the debates, McCain did not make eye contact and did not turn his body toward Obama. What has happened since then in American politics? BG: It’s gone more downhill, and a prime example of that was at one debate between Trump and Clinton when he didn’t shake her hand. That is such an aggressive behavior. The social norm is to shake hands. That is the mainstream American greeting. It doesn’t matter who you’re meeting—whether they are friend or foe, you shake hands. There have been other examples where Trump won’t shake hands, like with the German chancellor. He just sat there looking away. Body language reveals a lot. Even more pointedly rude is all the name-calling, from “nasty woman” to “deplorables.” I’m of the mindset that we were all told in our childhood that if you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all. … Every child knows that’s the rule at age 4. But now, it’s out the window.

or 12 years Bizia Greene has taught children and adults about everything from table manners to business mixers. She’s the founder of the Etiquette School of Santa Fe (988-2070, etiquetteschoolof santafe.com) and now is the author of the Etiquette Rules column in the Santa Fe New Mexican. In October 2008, SFR interviewed Greene at the height of the Obama/McCain presidential race—and it’s downright quaint what we were concerned about then, when it comes to the politeness of politicians. We caught up with Greene again to get her thoughts on the state of niceness in America.
In a non-partisan spirit, what observations have you made about the politeness level of the president? I am particularly struck by how he consistently walks in front of his wife. From the top down, I see a lack of awareness and sensitivity in the White House. … [On Inauguration Day], Trump gets out of the car, doesn’t wait for his wife, and just walks right up the stairs. He’s leading the charge. … This is a man who is not aware of his surroundings, not aware of the people around him; he is not chivalrous. Whether
it’s old-fashioned or not, your wife is your partner. She is the First Lady of the United States, and she deserves to be side-byside with you. I thought it was disrespectful, given what a big moment that was on the world stage, and that it would be photographed. How have the social changes of the last 10 years influenced your curriculum? I have a whole curriculum on social media and using cell phones, and that was not as extensive when I started. The main mes-
When I was growing up, I was always told there were three things it was impolite to discuss: politics, religion and money. All of that seems to be completely disregarded right now. It is, and it isn’t. For some of my family, they live in a tight-knit neighborhood where there are a lot of different political leanings. They’ve been able to carry on wonderful decades-long relationships, but there is an unwritten rule that politics will not be brought up because it would cause such a breakdown in the relationships. It just depends. I think this is one of those times that it’s even hard to agree to disagree. Even though a lot of the rules have gone out the window and we do talk about politics and religion and money, there are a lot of times where it isn’t worth it because you know that you can’t change the other person’s mind, and vice versa—they’re not going to change your mind.

Entrada Trouble
New film represents the most pointed challenge yet to Santa Fe’s annual Entrada de Don Diego de Vargas

he struggle over what Americans choose to memorialize, and how, has spread from the movement to take down Confederate flags to now include the removal of statues venerating slave owners, racists and conquerors. A pair of filmmakers from the Santa Fe area is drawing comparisons between the city’s interpretations of its own European resettlement, epitomized by the Entrada de Don Diego de Vargas during the Fiestas celebrations in September, and this broader movement to modify or abolish painful symbols of conquest and domination. According to the film’s director, Jaima Chevalier, the documentary Veiled Lightning began as an examination of Native American artists who take inspiration from the 1680 Pueblo Revolt against the Spanish settlement at Pecos led by the medicine man Po’pay. As they began filming, they realized the uprising has resonance with resurgent Native American activism today. An abridged version of the film was screened for the first time in early June at the New Mexico History Museum. Chevalier says she and her team have since received death threats because of its provocative content. “The climax of the story is really what’s happening today in protesting the whole situation around the Fiestas Entrada,” Chevalier tells SFR. “That ended up being the exclusive news coverage we had, because that wasn’t being followed by the dominant media.” At times, the improvised development of the film is apparent. Much of it consists of interviews with Indigenous artists and academics, and to a lesser extent, activists. Some are Pueblo people whose families take issue with the depiction of Spain’s resettlement of Santa Fe in 1692. Co-producer Ashley Browning, who grew up in the Pojoaque Pueblo, considers the Pueblo Revolt to be the first anticolonial revolution to happen on American soil. She recalled as a child when

dancers associated with the Fiestas would come perform at her school. “I thought, ‘That’s nice, they look pretty,’ but looking at it now it’s very different,” she says. “And knowing about the Pueblo Revolt and the history of it all … it gets me to where, why don’t we have other fiestas that celebrate Native culture, or other talks about it all around?” Elena Ortiz, a film subject from Ohkay Owingeh, who participated in a protest against the Entrada last year, echoed Browning’s complaints. “Very early I learned. My father would say Fiestas is not for us,” Ortiz says. “When I got older, I simply refused to have anything to do with it, and I wrote letters to the newspaper, I talked to teachers at high schools about alternative narratives; but it really started affecting me when I had my own kids and saw they were going through it, and I remembered how it made me feel.”
Controversy around the Entrada de Don Diego de Vargas has long been swirling.

Although they mayor was receptive at the time, she says, nothing ever came to fruition. “If the Caballeros de Vargas [the group that writes the script and choreographs the Entrada production] don’t listen now, it’s guaranteed this year the protests are going to be even louder and bigger. Because not only are local Natives upset about this, the whole world is watching now,” she says. A woman named Jennifer Marley from the San Ildefonso Pueblo looped Montoya into the organizing effort. Marley, an undergraduate at the University of New Mexico, has helped lead efforts to organize against the Entrada as a member of the Red Nation, a coalition of Indigenous activists “dedicated to the liberation of Indigenous peoples from -Dean Milligan, colonialism.” Santa Fe Fiesta Council president This year, Marley says, the Red Nation plans to broaden its message beyond the abolition of the Entrada, including the proOrtiz and her daughter are now in- tection of Chaco Canyon from fracking. volved in efforts to abolish the Entrada. “I think a lot of energy has been accuAlso part of the effort are Jessica Montoya mulating ever since the [the Dakota Acand her husband, Anastacio Trujillo.

We have got the Native Americans involved in everything in Fiestas, and if they were so upset with us, do you think they’d participate in it?
Fiesta Council, whose president, Dean Milligan, considers the Red Nation to be a group of agitators from out of town. He says he is willing to sit down and speak with anybody in order to avoid protests, but is not amenable to abolishing the event. “We’ve been celebrating this for 305 years. Why all of a sudden are these people, people not from here, coming and protesting? They don’t understand it,” he says. “We have got the Native Americans involved in everything in Fiestas, and if they were so upset with us, do you think they’d participate in it?” Mayor Javier Gonzales says the city has “encouraged” dialogue between tribal leaders of the Tesuque Pueblo and the Fiesta Council, but maintains that the city’s role is limited to reimbursing the council up to $50,000 through a lodger’s tax for costs associated with the Fiestas event. “I don’t believe that the Entrada can be compared to what happened in the South, [but] I do believe there are statues around Santa Fe that were put up to celebrate Manifest Destiny and the conquering of a very peaceful people, that I think we need to confront what those symbols mean in our community by keeping them up,” the mayor tells SFR by phone. Chevalier says she and Browning will begin a film circuit for Veiled Lightning shortly, hitting up mostly New Mexico- or Native-focused festivals. A public showing of the film’s final cut is planned at the New Mexico History Museum on Wednesday Sept. 6, to be followed by a community conversation about the Entrada hosted at the museum. The Entrada production is scheduled to happen two days later, on Friday Sept. 8.

2017 POLITICAL CARTOON CONTEST
An Art to It After 60 years of editorial cartooning, Pat Oliphant wonders how the art form will survive

t 81, Pat Oliphant’s eyes are finally giving him enough trouble that he’s no longer drawing regularly. He hasn’t stopped thinking about it, though. And it’s torture. “We thought that Watergate was a unique condition. But it sort of pales in comparison to what we’ve got now,” the editorial cartoonist tells SFR. “I’ve been in this business 60 years. And I’ve waited 60 years for this bastard to come along. And I can’t do anything about it because of my eyes.” He’s speaking of the president, to whom he will later refer as an imbecile.

“This guy would have really lent himself to it,” he offers wistfully. At the business end of Oliphant’s pen, many of his subjects have had little choice but to bow to his unforgiving wit and widely praised artistic acumen. He won the Pulitzer Prize for editorial cartooning in 1967—as the story goes, by slyly figuring out the political bent of the judges and drawing a cartoon he thought could win. Oliphant won the Pulitzer in his first few years at the Denver Post. It was his time there that introduced the native Australian to Santa Fe. He and his wife, Susan Conway, moved here from Washington, DC, in the ’90s. Oliphant considers it a marked improvement on Beltway life. He honed his sharp commentary on the whetstone of the daily news, morning radio and, later, cable television. Oliphant says he quickly learned that there was a delicate balance involved in his work regimen. “Stay angry. You’ve got to work yourself up every morning into a lather of indignation and take it out in your drawings,” he says. “Otherwise it’d be terrible not to have that outlet … which I’m finding now.” He still draws, occasionally, recently publishing a pair of editorial cartoons that pilloried both President Trump and adviser Steve Bannon. But he says his sketches of Trump are far from the final rendering he’d craft if he were producing work daily. “You’re trying to build a character at the same time as you’re getting the caricature together,” he says. Trump might lend
Pat Oliphant, etching and aquatint, 1999, Landfall Press (Chicago, Illinois)
himself to the character part more easily than the nine other presidents Oliphant has drawn, but he says getting a signature image down is something that demands painstaking self-criticism. “You’re trying to say what you can about the person in one rendition. And it takes a bit of time to work that out in your mind.” It’s hard to overstate just how much Pat Oliphant has meant to the world of editorial cartooning. His attention to not just political satire, but to the art of drawing—perspective and balance and a dozen other aspects—has made him a legend. Some of his work is part of the Museum of
New Mexico permanent collection and is also cataloged at the Library of Congress. He worries no one cares about the quality of a cartoon these days. When it’s all about getting a laugh, he says, and not about getting the head-shaking, sometimes angry reaction, editorial cartooning is doomed: “It’s not a joke at all. It’s serious business.” That’s why SFR launched its Political Cartoon Contest. Even though all subjects were fair game, most entries featured a version of Trump.

his is a sculpture of San Antonio de Valero, called the Alamo. It is not a model but rather an impression of the feel of the structure with the age and history that it has gone through. The actual mission was founded in 1718. The building itself was started in 1744, but the inscription above the door says 1758 AVR—presumably Ave Maria Regina, “Hail Mary, Queen (of Heaven).” It is most famous and revered for the heroic but fatal stand of 1836 against General Santa Anna and his troops for independence from Mexico. The church fell into ruins, and after Texas joined the Union in 1845, the Army Quartermaster Corp rebuilt the façade and added the profile of the now famous parapet in 1850. The drawer assemblage containing images and artifacts that tell a story of the Alamo itself is by PJ Cardinale, my wife and fellow artist since 1966.

Yoga teacher Tias Little travels to Telluride to talk about a whole different nature of peak asanas BY ELIZABETH MILLER e l i z a b e t h @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
T
he arch-yogi, Shiva, was known to practice his asanas and meditate atop mountains in the Himalayas. This is among the first points Tias Little, who runs Santa Fe-based Prajna Yoga with his wife, Surya, makes when we start talking about why yogis benefit from heading to places outside the quiet sanctuary of studios and, perhaps, into the mountains. In the practice itself, Little points to the mountains represented in tadasana, a root for many of the poses. “Mountain pose is the sort of quintessential yoga pose; it’s the first pose of all of the practice,” he says. The mountains and yoga are intertwined, clearly. That’s sometimes tough to remember in an era when so many people practice in closed rooms, with music pumping through speakers. Little takes his practice, and his teaching, to Telluride this month for the 10th annual Telluride Yoga Festival. He’s been attending for years, and the tradition that’s built up is that he and his 12-yearold son go a few days early to mountain bike or backpack through Colorado’s peaks before the festival. They’ll load mountain bikes on the gondola to ride up the slopes at Telluride and then bomb the downhill trails, or take the dog and backpack through the nearby wilderness areas.
“It’s great to be doing a lot of outdoor activity, and fitness kind of training in the summertime in the mountains,” Little says. “Just being able to be in nature, and experience the prana [essential life force]. Yoga is all about moving prana. … And the more outdoor time we get, the happier and healthier we can be.” At the festival, Little’s work moves more within, to indoor spaces where he teaches classes on the fascia, the body’s connective tissue; meditation; moving the blood, lymph and cerebral spinal fluid. His teaching focuses on the so-called subtle body, the more subtle energy systems yoga is meant to fine-tune. There’s also a healthy dose of doing sun salutations from a vantage with a view of the valley, and meditating amid the aspen trees. It sounds luxurious, but it’s also how yoga was practiced for millennia. Little says it taps into the root goal of this 5,000-year-old tradition, which has more to do with training your mind than toning your abs. In three and a half decades of practice, and two teaching, he sees that people start with the fitness and physical elements, and then begin to delve into the more intangible effects. In 2015, he published a manual on those approaches, Yoga of the Subtle Body: A Guide to the Physical and Energetic Anatomy of Yoga. “All my life’s work is really guiding people toward the contemplative side of yoga, to really work in the interior and in the subtle body,” Little says. “So we can
Tias Little says the longer yogis practice, the less their attention lies with physical achievements and the more it strives for a state of mind.
start on the outside with the outer forms and as we peel away the onion and work more and more toward the interior, and en route to that, one has to work with their own fears and hopes and judgments and shame and traumas and dreams. So we kind of lay out all these different layers of progression in the mind-body connection. … You go far enough, the practice gets more and more subtle, really, and that’s really where the juice is.” His students, whether they find him here in Santa Fe, during his annual appearance at the Telluride Yoga Festival, or at other courses he teaches around the country, are less the “flow and glow” type. They’re ones who want to come to sit still and meditate. His courses at Prajna Yoga are often weeks long, and some culminate in eight-day silent meditation retreats. “It’s really helping people dig a deep well,” he says. And that, somehow, circles back to the mountains, and this notion of a mind that
resembles the view from the top of a peak. “The tradition of meditation and yoga have always been linked to spacious awareness or boundless awareness, so that experience of vastness or spaciousness is really so palpable up there,” he says. “Tibetans notice that experience of the mind like space, uncluttered and without a lot of distractions. … In the classic Buddhist literature, the mind is described as empty. People equate that with vacuousness, but it’s just the opposite; it’s boundless, that boundless awareness identified to be space, or sky.”
Tias Little teaches courses on yoga and fascia, vital fluids, meditation and alignment during the Telluride Yoga Festival (July 20-23 in Telluride, Colorado). Surya Little will teach classes on arm balances and backbends. More details and registration at tellurideyogafestival.com.

COURTESY THE PROTRUDERS
MUSIC WED/5 HOW TO STICK OUT Recapture the magic of explosive lo-fi punk rock a la Dead Kennedys or The Stooges with Toronto’s The Protruders, a veritable time machine to a simpler time of fuzzed-out garage-pop punk riffs and throwback charm. Are they loud and angry and abrasive? You bet! But in this anger lies catharsis and, if we’re lucky, a subtle reminder that radio pop sucks huge and there’s still a lot to be said for fast-paced, poorly produced punk from a bunch of hotheads who may wear their influences on their collective sleeve, but still know how to innovate in just the right ways. (Alex De Vore) The Protruders with Speck and Weedrat: 7 pm Wednesday July 5. $5-$10. Zephyr Community Art Studio, 1502 Center Drive, Ste. 2.

Artist showcases, farm tours, lavender hand treatments—there’s something here for everyone. This year’s festivities, which fall under the theme of Country and Western Down on the Lavender Farm, also include the brand-new u-pick field where guests can pick their own lavender. So don your finest 10-gallon hat and cowboy boots and bask in the beauty of Northern New Mexico, lavender-style.

ART OPENINGS FRI/7
The Golden Age of Meadow Festivals Rendezvous a-go-go The canvas is a magical place where reality and imagination meet to create worlds we wish we could walk right into. In the works of Kent Monkman, a realist painter whose works in the upcoming exhibit, The Rendezvous, at Peters Projects, represent Bacchae-like scenes from historical trading festivals that happened in the Rocky Mountains. The 19th-century gatherings were utopian meetings where mountain men, fur trappers and Native people met to trade, drink, dance, make music and make love while reveling in the glory of a late-spring mountain bloom. “The paintings ended up having quite an exuberant and celebratory quality,” Monkman says. There’s a lot of nudity and beauty in this fantastical realism: In one painting, a woman lays in a white-capped cowboy’s lap, arrows splaying out of her bare chest and surrounded by face-painted Indians in headdresses. The color palate is rich and classic, featuring a deep blue sky that compliments the woman’s billowing cerulean skirt—and even though the gal is obviously in a bad way, it’s a serene moment. Inspiration to create these works hit Monkman when he saw drawings by
artist Alfred Jacob Miller (1810-1874), who attended one of these debaucherous festivals. The series borrows stylistically from Baroque paintings by the likes of Nicolas Poussin, though displaying Western characters and settings through an artistically historic lens. “These gatherings were very much about living on the edge,” Monkman says. “People gathered, they traded, they drank whiskey, they coupled. … All kinds of things happened. They were kind of like these wild rebels.” Monkman reinterprets the rebellious nature of this historic crowd in modern terms throughout these works. “I wanted to put the focus on gender. Gender, now, is kind of the new frontier, in terms of how society is struggling to come to terms with trans people,” Monkman says. “So, even though I am working with historic subject matter, there is kind of this theme of gender being the new frontier.” (Maria Egolf-Romero) KENT MONKMAN: THE RENDEZVOUS OPENING RECEPTION 5 pm Friday July 7. Free. Peters Projects, 1011 Paseo de Peralta, 954-5800.

and former Big Boo vocalist Mikey Rae on bass, Henley and original member Sam Funk are back at it. Thank God. “We’ll have new material,” Henley says. “I’ll write a song and show it to everybody else, and by the very nature of collaboration, it becomes something completely different. … It’s important to me to have other people to play with; I don’t like being a band director; I’m not good at it.” Still, the songs (some of which can be heard at sexheadaches.bandcamp.com) are killer, and it’s great to have something different added to the scene, especially now that Henley has rounded out the sound with a bass player. “It’s weird, but guitar-based bands seem almost uncool right now, and when I see a guitar-based band I think, ‘Oh, how refreshing,’” Henley says. “It’s another link in a very long chain, and it’s kind of a regressive music, but that’s what’s so fun about it—if you play a catchy, pop-structured song and play it loud as fuck, people get excited.” For now, Henley is realistic yet hopeful. “Not a ton of people are doing this, and it’s easy to carve out a niche in Santa Fe with a strangely novel thing,” he says. “It’s personally and emotionally rewarding to make music here, but it would be cool if I had some T-shirts to sell, I guess.”
Sex Headaches ride again BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
I
t’s a few years back and I’m standing inside Radical Abacus, the small DIY space in the midtown industrial/Siler Road area, when Sex Headaches take the stage. Well, it’s actually just a corner of the room. They’re a two-piece comprised of local musicians Luke Henley and Angelo Harmsworth. They slay. A chaotic mix of fuzzy garage pop layered over a solid DK-esque punk rock foundation was just what I’d always wanted around here—and so it was. It’s roughly a year later and I’m drunk out of my mind inside Rockin’ Rollers, the somehow-still-alien-themed roller rink in the same-ish area, and Sex Headaches, now a three-piece with second guitarist Sam Funk, slays even harder. For an hour. A full fucking hour. They achieve an even better sound, they’re tighter than ever, I expect great things. And then they disappear. Until now. “I was really just looking for a drummer and a bassist,” Henley says. See, the band is mainly his, the product of years as a musician, a writer and a self-described fan of angry music, and the upcoming show at Ghost is their glorious return to form. Henley grew up in Tucson and came to Santa Fe by way of New York University, where he was pursuing a creative writing degree. “It was just too easy to be drunk and functional in New York,” he says, “and Santa Fe University of Art and Design was really the only school where the requirements I’d already done would transfer.” But he never hung out with the other writing students, preferring instead
to party with music majors. Previously, in Tucson, Henley had focused on DIY folk-punk or cowpunk styles as a performer, even though he’d gotten into bona fide punk rock from an early age. Santa Fe was his chance to revisit that love. “The big bands when I was in high school were, like, Dogbreth and Andrew Jackson Jihad, but I wasn’t seeing a lot of the more punk or garage bands in Tucson,” Henley says. “And I wasn’t seeing bands like that when I moved to Santa Fe in 2013 either, which was kind of cool because I was like, ‘Well, I can play these two-chord songs.’” He recruited Harmsworth, and the pair played their first show at Pink Haüs, a no-longer-there house venue run by Storming the Beaches with Logos in Hand’s Caitlin Brothers. “I didn’t have many expectations, but seeing people really gravitate toward the music and seeing a really rowdy crowd was exciting and fun,” Henley reminisces. “The first show I saw in Santa Fe was when High Mayhem brought Ty Segall, and I thought, ‘Oh, cool—it’s happening here’—the crowd was insane, and I could just tell it was like this huge release for them.” Of course, those of us who’ve lived around here awhile know that punk rock isn’t always easy to come by, and that’s what made Sex Headaches’ appearance and subsequent quick disappearance sting so badly. But Henley never stopped writing, and now, with a little help from Treemotel’s Mark Williams on drums

YOU MAY BE SLACKING ON THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF YOUR SKIN CARE ROUTINE
Pay through your nose, then be sure to put this fancy SPF from Clé de Peau Beauté all over it.
BY MARIA EGOLF-ROMERO m a r i a @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

arbecues, swimming adventures and porch lounging are the highlights of summer. But the mini sundresses, shorts and swimsuits you don to these events may leave you with one nasty parting gift: sunburn. Sun damage causes uneven skin tone, premature aging, wrinkles and, in some cases, skin cancer. Even if you aren’t fire-engine-red after your day in the sun, you may be accumulating damage, and getting just five sunburns in your lifetime doubles your chances of developing melanoma, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation. We all want glowing, dewy skin. Summer or not, a flawless complexion is always in fashion, and protecting it is paramount to aging like an angel. I am not saying you have to slather yourself in waterproof SPF 50 on the daily, but you’ve gotta wear something. Hunting for the right sunscreen, sunblock or a daily lotion with SPF is an endeavor worth a bit of trial and error, and it’s okay to spend more on something you’re going to wear every day. This is the most important product in your skincare repertoire. SPF (sun protection factor) represents the amount of UV the products keeps from penetrating the skin. Daily moisturizers with SPF 15 block 93 percent of the damage you might incur while walking to your car or around the block to get that second cup of coffee.
Acure is more wallet-friendly and comes in some super-cute packaging.
Tuck an uberportable sun stick in your purse and always be ready.
There are mounds of choices when it comes to sunscreens and blocks, and you can find innovative options at CosBar (128 W Water St., 984-2676) where manager Jennifer Sandoval—who’s worked in the cosmetics industry for over 14 years— says she sees countless customers spend a fortune to correct damage they could’ve easily prevented with a good SPF. “Women spend all this money on night creams and serums and lightening creams,” she says. “You’re wasting all that money if you don’t have something to protect from the damage you’re trying to repair.”
Don’t leave home without your LBD (no, not little black dress).
The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends that everyone over the age of 6 months wear at least SPF 15, every single day. It’s cloudy? Still wear it. You’re not going to be outside much? Wear it anyway. Some other excuse? Wear it. You get the point; it’s for your health and your vibrant look. The difference between a sunscreen and sunblock is that sunscreens are lotion compounds made with chemicals (or oils and waxes) that repel the sun’s harmful rays. Sunblocks are physical protectants made of minerals, like zinc oxide, which
create a physical mask that blocks rays from reaching the skin. Neither keeps 100 percent of UV rays out, but each has pros that could tip you in their direction. I lean towards a screen for full body application, and a block for the face. Sandoval reminds me, “Anything that goes on your face, you should be putting on your neck and chest.” If you’re embarking on an outdoor adventure (think spending a day lakeside at Abiquiú), you’ll need to apply at least an ounce, or a shot glass full, of SPF every two hours, or each time after toweling off if the product isn’t waterproof. Applying the right amount and often enough is as important as wearing it in the first place.
COSBAR Sun LBD, a unique block made by La Bella Donna ($38), is SPF 50. Protecting from 98 percent of UV rays, the tinted formula, which matches most skin tones, comes in a foundation-like application sponge and would be an easy and beneficial substitute for your daily powder. It has a little mirror on its top and you can pop the small cylinder right into your purse. Japanese brand Clé de Peau Beauté has an aesthetic as French as its name, and its pricey ($90) UV protective emulsion comes with a very high protection for the body. It’s SPF 50 sunscreen that has a ton of ingredients that may sound totally unfamiliar, but also more familiar items such as zinc oxide and ginkgo biloba extract, which act as anti-pollution agents as well. Hours after I tried the sample in the store, my hand felt baby-soft. That’s what $90 for two and a half ounces gets you, I guess. LA MONTAÑITA CO-OP Baby SPF 30 sunscreen ($13.99) by planet-conscious brand Acure is much more affordable and the right consistency for an all-over product. It’s not greasy and has a barely-there floral scent, so you won’t smell like that mini bottle of Malibu rum you definitely didn’t drink, regretting it for days after. Speaking of not smelling like the icky kind of coconut, All Good’s Coconut Sunstick ($6.99) smells like a real coconut: damn good and not too intense. It’s a bit waxy, but gets better when it’s warm, goes on clear and is ideal to keep on your person.

that X was forever off the table suddenly find themselves curious about X and wanting to give X a try years or decades later. Who we are and what we want at 39 or 49 can look very different than who we were and what we wanted at 29. I’m a 29-year-old straight woman facing a dilemma. I dated this guy about a year ago, and in many ways he was exactly the guy I was looking for. The main hitch was sexual. Our sex was good, but he had a fetish where he wanted me to sleep with other guys. Basically, he gets off on a girl being a “slut.” He was also into threesomes or swapping with another couple. I experimented with all of that for a few months, and in a way I had fun with it, but I finally realized that this lifestyle is not for me. I want a more traditional, monogamous relationship. I broke it off with him. We reconnected recently, and he wants to get back together. He says that he wants to be with me, even if it means a more traditional sex life. I’m interested, but suspicious. If he decides to forego his fetish in order to be with me, can he ever feel truly fulfilled with our sex life? I don’t want to be with someone I can’t completely satisfy. I also worry that down the road he might change his mind and try to convince me to experiment with nonmonogamy again, which would make me feel pressured. I’m looking for someone to settle down with, and I’m scared to waste more time on this guy, even though in many ways he’s a great fit. Do you think it’s possible for us to be happy together in a traditional arrangement when deep down he wants more? -Interested Despite Kink Every partnered person on earth is with someone they “can’t completely satisfy.” No one person can be all things to another person— sexually or in any other way. So don’t waste too much time stressing out about that. That said, IDK, this guy gets off when girls—his girl in particular—are “sluts.” That doesn’t mean he can’t/won’t/doesn’t get off when you’re not being slutty. (In this situation, “being slutty” refers to you sleeping with other people, which is only subjectively slutty.) He likes it when you’re a slut, but I bet he also likes it when you ___, ___, or ___. (I don’t know your sex life. Fill in the blanks.) Are you focusing too much on one of the things he’s into (you fucking other people) and not enough on all the other things he’s into (things like ___, ___, and ___)? If those other things are enough for him to have a great sex life with you without getting to enjoy this particular kink, you can make this work. In other words, IDK: If giving up his hotwife/cuckold fantasies is the price of admission he’s willing to pay to be with you, maybe you should let him pay that price. If being with someone who fantasizes about sexual scenarios you would rather not participate in (and who may be fantasizing about them while you’re having sex) is the price of admission you’re willing to pay to be with him, maybe you should pay that price. Another maybe: Are there accommodations that would allow him to have his fetish/fantasies without having to stifle them and allow you to have your monogamous commitment? No fucking other guys, but sometimes sharing stories of past exploits? Or making up dirty stories you can share while you’re fucking? Kinky people sometimes place a few of their kinks on the shelf for years, decades, or all their lives because they love their partner, but their partner doesn’t love their proclivity for ball-busting/piss-pigging/whatever-evering. And, yes, sometimes a person says they’re willing to let go of a kink and then changes their mind and starts pressuring their partner years or decades later—often when it’s much harder for the non-kinky partner to end things, i.e., after marrying, having kids, etc., which renders the pressure coercive and corrosive. Another thing that sometimes happens: People who never thought they’d be into X and married someone with the understanding

My partner has a hard time dealing with the fact that, before him, I had several casual flings and one-night stands. It has repeatedly caused issues with us. He is disturbed by the vastness of my past and concerned that I am sometimes impulsive. Because of these things, he often feels too scared to move forward in the relationship. In all other ways we have a supportive, fun-filled, and loving relationship—but I wonder if this issue is just too fundamental. I cannot change my past (and wouldn’t even if I could) and I am trying to be less impulsive, but I’m not sure he sees the changes I’m making. -Partner’s Angst Seriously Troubling With apologies to George Santayana: Bros who cannot shut up about your past are condemned to reside in it. DTMFA. My boyfriend of three months is great! He’s smart, funny, and attractive—and two weeks ago, we said those three words. My parents like him, my friends like him, and my cat is enamored with him. But that’s where the problem starts. I had some reservations that he was only coming around to cuddle with my cat—which I know sounds crazy—so I disregarded it. Then he told me that he loves sleeping in my bed because of the mattress! He says his mattress at home hurts his back and he feels achy all day unless he sleeps at my place. (I splurged on an expensive gel/foam combination mattress.) I can’t shake the feeling that he is using me for my mattress and my cat. -Boy Erodes Dame’s Satisfaction Which seems likelier: This smart, funny, and attractive guy has been fucking you for three months (and said “those three words” two weeks ago) to keep the gel/foam and literal pussy coming, BEDS, or this guy likes you, he really likes you. Since men can get cats and mattresses of their own, BEDS, my money is on the latter. But you’re right about one thing: Your question makes you sound crazy. I was surprised by your advice to CUCK, the gay man whose husband was sleeping with another man who insisted on treating CUCK like a cuckold—sending him degrading text messages—even though CUCK isn’t into that. Why isn’t this a case of someone involving another person in his sex life without his consent? While CUCK has agreed to let his husband fuck another person, he didn’t agree to receive sexually explicit texts from that person. -Consensual Lovin’ Is Paramount The Other Man (TOM) is fucking CUCK’s husband, CLIP, so TOM is involved in CUCK’s sex life—at the margins, on the edges, but kindasorta involved. When CUCK told his husband he didn’t appreciate TOM’s texts, his husband asked CUCK to play along because it turns TOM on. (I suspect it also turns CUCK’s husband on.) I told CUCK that he should play along only if the texts didn’t bother him. It may have been out of line for TOM to send that first message without making sure it would be welcome (I’ll bet CUCK’s husband, who was there, gave TOM the okay), but it was a party foul at best. And, again, if the texts don’t bother CUCK and he’s willing to play along for his husband’s benefit, I think he should.

COURTESY GLEN NEFF
Artist/musician Glen Neff has been composing and creating his whole life, not to mention for his 23-plus years as a citizen of Cerrillos/Madrid/Santa Fe. The consummate hippie artist, Neff likes to push buttons through improvisational pieces in both disciplines and is all about stories. We caught up with him ahead of his show at the Jean Cocteau Cinema (5:30 pm Friday July 7. Free. 418 Montezuma Ave., 466-5528) and were like, “Oh hey, Glen—you’re a cool dude.” (Alex De Vore) Would you consider yourself an artist or a musician first? Both. All along. For my entire life. As a matter of fact, I started as a watercolorist early on, and it’s like improvising with music—painting and composing are the same way of thinking for me. When you sit down with watercolor, it’s loose and free and you don’t know what you’re going to get, and I see music the same way. It’s wonderful, that aspect of it. Some of the paintings I’ll have in this show are meticulously masked off, some are a hundred hours each and not improvisational. Some have a more studied approach.

Open Every Weekend until Sept 23 & 24, Saturday 8 am - 3 pm Sunday 8 am - 3 pm (Open on Fridays in August)
Can you describe a little what we might see? You’re going to see five or six pieces from what I call my Icon series. They’re mostly watercolor with some mixed-in multimedia, like acrylics. They’re outer-spacey images, very feminine, almost angelic. That’s one group. There’s another that’s more surrealist; one of them is very political. They all have a story, if you want to make a story for them—I wouldn’t tell people how to see the story. Do you ever stop creating? Never. I’ve got hundreds of hours of music, a number registered with ASCAP; I’ve got a couple hundred paintings sitting around, I built my house between Cerrillos and Madrid—designed it from scratch, and it’s all to code.

Andrea Vargas explores the human body BY LIZ BRINDLEY @lizbrindley_artwork
S
“
tunning.” When I use this word to describe local artist Andrea Vargas’ recent collection of work, she replies, “Un dia, you’ll tell me what that word means to you.” I am caught off-guard, but also challenged to reflect on this word that came so swiftly. I begin to think about the comments we throw out, sometimes intentionally, sometimes carelessly, to describe a work of art. Often, our words fall short of the images before us because vocabulary can’t fully encompass what it is we try to describe. In some ways, it’s silly to even attempt to discuss art through words because the nature of visual art is exactly that—visual. It is imagery and emotion wrapped together onto one piece of paper. With words, our connection to art can move away from the heart and into the cerebral where our rational human mind craves an answer to the question, “Why?” But Andrea Vargas does not focus on the “why” in her artwork. Instead, she focuses on the feeling. As we discuss this in her studio recently, she says, “You might get it here,” and points to her head, “but do you feel it here?” and motions to her heart. Vargas’ new collection dives into this space of vulnerable emotion through depictions of the human body. These depictions stem from Vargas’ upbringing in California, where she was influenced by murals at a young age, an inspiration that continues to push her practice into the large-scale with these drawings. Vargas’ training was shaped by muralists and artists before she received
New Mexico Peace Choir
her degree in rhetoric and public discourse from the University of California, Berkeley. Vargas now splits her time between the desert of New Mexico and the West Coast creating art that focuses on ecology and transformation. Her recent pastel drawings highlight the fragile strength of human beings through deep attention to shadows, curves and fleshiness. “Pastels are a medium that let me sculpt with my fingertips and palms,” Vargas explains. Her use of the material and care for these works turn the forms into two-dimensional sculptures that illuminate the body’s beauties and tragedies, wounds and traumas. “I create with an approach of compassion for the human body and the human experience,” Vargas says with a calm voice. “I say this because trauma exists in all bodies and is not prejudiced to gender. This means that the human condition is both strong and frail, resilient and yet tender.” Many of us may put up barriers in an attempt to avoid weakness and wounds, but Vargas shows how the vulnerability and pain that come from an openness to life is a beautiful part of our existence. This beauty is embedded in our skin along with our histories, our fears and our joys. It is the messy conglomeration of being human. Vargas takes this mess and makes sense of it through the movement of pigments across paper, an intimate process between hands and material. The direct contact between the artist’s skin to create the skin of another is a vulnerable act in itself that integrates connection into each part of the process. “It’s incredibly sensual at times because I become in love with what I see,” she says.

Artist Andrea Vargas doesn’t always represent faces, preferring the viewer to observe the piece as a cypher—but when she does they’re pretty amazing.
Vargas asks creatives in her life to pose for these drawings to capture her respect for the strong and daring lives they lead. These artists and musicians are Vargas’ inspiration to depict the male and female forms, but she excludes faces to create an opportunity for viewers to let go of recognition and make space for universal connection; because these bodies are not immediately identifiable, viewers may see part of themselves reflected in the works. This reflection led me to search for an honest answer to the artist’s curiosity about my description, “stunning.” The word fell from my lips, but as I spend more time with Vargas’ works, vocabulary disappears. The vivid marks pull me away from definition and into a hunt for what made me not only say, but feel this term. Staying with the work reveals the obvious: “Stunning” refers to something that stuns us; stops us in our tracks. We may lose our
breath for a second, or feel a deep sense of compassion because we recognize ourselves in what we see. This is the impact of Vargas’ work. And though Vargas doesn’t always aim to attach specific meaning to her works of art, these drawings are an exception. “I do feel this series gives us a way to feel and to love,” she emphasizes. “In our contemporary times, it is still love that is the most radical and audacious force on Earth.” This force radiates through Vargas’ drawings and demands a return to the present moment to fully experience what we witness. In this presence, we can feel more care and tenderness for the shared vulnerable moments of this corporeal experience. SPANISH MARKET GROUP SHOW OPENING RECEPTION 5 pm Friday July 7. Free.

Pommes Anna Draw me like one of your French girls
BY MICHAEL J WILSON t h e f o r k @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
F
rench cuisine is often called difficult, but it isn’t, really. Fairly minimalist in nature, it relies on rich flavors. A better word might be “fussy.” It relies on immaculate, perfect execution. And butter. Lots of it. Few dishes exemplify the contradictions of time-consuming French minimalism better than the deceptively simple-looking pommes Anna. The dish is literally just potatoes and butter, but it is considered a true test of skill in cooking circles. A bit of history: Pommes Anna was created by chef Adolphe Dugléré at Paris’ Café Anglais sometime during the reign of Napoleon III (that’s 1852 to 1870, for those of you not up on French history). Café Anglais was the most famous Parisian restaurant of the 19th century and Dugléré was the most acclaimed chef. Dugléré most likely named his creation after Anna Deslions, who entertained dignitaries in a private salon above the dining room. Thus, we have a dish with a nice mix of prestige and sex. This makes it very, very French. There is, in fact, a fancy pan designed just for pommes Anna. It’ll cost you somewhere in the $300-$500 range. Don’t buy this. A castiron skillet or well-seasoned non-stick will work just as well. Otherwise, you just need an oven-safe lid. You’ll also want a mandoline unless you have amazing knife skills, since the slices need to be very uniform. You’re also going to want a spatula and tin foil. Finally, you might also want
to remember to not expect perfection your first go-round. It’s a finicky dish. Ingredients: * 5 lbs. russet potatoes * 1 cup butter or clarified butter, melted * Grated Parmesan for garnish * Salt and pepper Directions: 1 Pre-heat your oven to 450 degrees with the rack in the middle or lower position. Potato time! You want the slices to be thin, about ⅛ inch thick. No need to peel unless you don’t like the skins. Use a towel to dry the slices—you don’t want excess moisture in there; you’re about to add a ton of butter. 2
3 Liberally coat the bottom of the skillet with butter and heat on low until a potato will sizzle when placed in the center of the pan. Quickly place slices in a circular pattern. You want the slices to overlap. Do this to the edge of the pan. It should look like the center of a sunflower. Toss on some salt and pepper to your prefer-
Like most things that come in pie form, pommes Anna rules the land.
This one’s for all those food fans who are like, “There aren’t enough potatoes or butter in the world!”
ence then add about 2 tablespoons of the melted butter. You can drizzle or brush it on. Layer one is done! 4 Repeat until you are out of potatoes. There will be a bit of a hill in the center of the dish, but don’t worry—this will sink as it cooks. By the time you finish the last layer there will be a good bubbling of butter going on. Give the pan a shake to make sure nothing is sticking, and then press the lot down firmly with the spatula. Increase the heat to medium and let cook for 10 minutes. 5 This is where things get tricky. You’re going to flip it. Don’t freak out. It’ll be ok. Your best bet is to put a plate on top of your pan, flip it onto the plate, then slide it back into the skillet. BE CAREFUL. The potatoes are not your friends. The potatoes want to escape. Go slow. Breathe. Use your hands to reform things on the plate before you put it back in the pan. If you are too afraid to do the flip, you can cover with foil, press down firmly, and skip to the oven. You won’t get a uniform all-over crust, but it will still taste fine. 6 Once back in the pan (I’m assuming you got it back there
and it’s not on the floor), cook for 5 minutes. Butter one side of the foil and press firmly down onto the top of the potatoes and put the lid on. You can also put something heavy on top of the potatoes instead of a lid—I used the top half of a panini press when I made mine. 7 Oven time! Bake for 20 minutes then remove the foil. Press down again. Return to the oven without foil this time for 2025 minutes. I lightly burned mine when I did this because I left them in for 30 minutes. Don’t burn them. This is a lot of work to choke on the landing. 8 Remove from the oven and rest for 10 minutes. Use the spatula to make sure the potatoes aren’t stuck to the pan, then oh-so-carefully turn the cake onto a serving dish and garnish with Parmesan. Slice into wedges and serve warm.
The options with this are nearly endless. Anything that goes in quiche would be fine here. Shallots. Ham. Cheese. With chive and bacon it would be a spectacular substitute to mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving. But apple, beet or sweet potato would also all be at home. Don’t fear the complications and potatoes; butter and bragging rights await.

Know your food

In an age of alternative facts, you’d at least like to know what’s in your food. But as director Scott Hamilton Kennedy (Fame High) reveals in his newest documentary, Food Evolution, things aren’t that simple. Navigating the debate surrounding GMOs (genetically modified organisms) and with narration from scientist/superstar Neil deGrasse Tyson, the film documents why the United States, along with the rest of the world, is so torn up about engineering our food. The words “GMO debate” evoke images of a divided, white, middle-class America, and Food Evolution puts the issue into a larger context of a global scale. The film asserts that with few facts and unchecked fear, GMOs have been banned across the world. As a result, farmers in countries as distant as Kenya and South Africa are losing food sources to disease and face starvation and mass crop loss. As one farmer urges, “Americans, please be aware, be informed that whenever you say ‘no’ to GM technology, you are suppressing

Africa.” Such debate, rife with misinformation and conflicting conclusions, is a haunting parallel to the state of our current administration, but Food Evolution is based in scientific fact. While the documentary unquestionably favors GMOs, Kennedy gives voice to both sides of the issue and includes interviews with GMO scientists as well as influential anti-GMO activists like Jefferey Smith and Zen Honeycutt. And though a documentary about GMOs could easily become dull, Food Evolution stays fresh and energetic, show-
ing that, in the end, we all want the same thing: fresh, safe, sustainable food. It’s just a question of how to get there. Regardless of where you stand on the issue, Food Evolution is a must-see. To know, to understand and to think critically about the future of food production is essential—quite literally a matter of life and death.

++ ELLIOTT IS SUPERB -- WRAPS UP A LITTLE FAST; WE DIDN’T LOVE PREPON
Sam Elliott gives what may just be the performance of his career in The Hero, a painful yet ultimately hopeful look into the side effects of fading stardom and the hard knocks of aging. Elliott is Lee Hayden, a one-time Western film star in the twilight of his existence. As Lee faces a grim medical diagnosis, he begins to reconsider his legacy and tries to patch things up with his family, but as his unresolved emotions begin to pile, he grapples with whether or not he’s led a life worth living. Lee spends his days getting stoned with his former costar Jeremy (Nick Offerman, who previously starred alongside Elliott in the sitcom Parks and Recreation), providing voiceover work for commercials with his deep, booming voice or trying to reconnect with his estranged daughter (Krysten Ritter). When he starts dating a much younger woman named Charlotte (Orange is the New Black’s Laura Prepon) and is offered a lifetime achievement award from some rinky-dink Western appreciation club, he sets into motion what may be a professional second wind. Still, he deals with the diagnosis alone, causing him

Even as he’s point-blank confronted with the possibility that he’s only trying to right the past in the face of death, Lee wonders how that could possibly be so bad; he’s not wrong so much as it may be too late.

++ DENZEL WASHINGTON AS JOHN COLTRANE
-- DENSE FOR THE CAUSAL JAZZ FAN
Featuring the friends, family and famous fans of John Coltrane (read: Bill Clinton and John Densmore of The Doors fame), the documentary Chasing Trane follows the celebrated jazz man from “country bumpkin” to full-on legend. From humble beginnings blossoms a friendship with fellow saxophonist Benny Golson, through whose interviews we learn that Trane himself was a quiet but soulful man translating painful experiences into music. Coltrane was raised in a Methodist household during the Jim Crow era, and his music often drew upon church gospels and explored themes of race and perseverance in the face CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

of discrimination. Aside from using music for political and personal expression, the man was a pioneer, pushing jazz forward into uncharted territory. He dared to challenge contemporary “jazz,” experimenting with tone, rhythm, and instrumentation, even at the risk of alienating listeners. It was, however, this unbridled confidence and creativity that earned him a place of idolatry in so many jazz lovers’ hearts. Critically acclaimed director John Scheinfeld (The US vs. John Lennon) pulls no stops. Unafraid to explore the more painful sides of Coltrane’s story, Scheinfeld presents an authentic image of a deeply talented but troubled musician struggling with heroin addiction. But despite his shortcomings, those close to Trane acknowledge his unrelenting kindness: Even when high or drunk, Trane was the same gentle man. The result is a more humanized and personal portrait of one of the jazz world’s biggest stars, just as entertaining as it is touching. While Scheinfeld does engage the audience, the amount of information Chasing Trane conveys can be overwhelming. Of course, with a career as diverse as Coltrane’s, it’s hard to keep things short and sweet, but in sweetness this film is not lacking. Through playful and enthusiastic interviews, the film has the perfect blend of humor and sentimentality. Inspiring, fun and thoughtful, Chasing Trane will stay with you long after the music ends.

++ I MEAN, IT’S PEOPLE FIGHTING MUMMIES
-- TOM CRUISE, IN GENERAL
Where does one even begin in dismantling any far-fetched high hopes for a quality reboot (sort of, but more on that soon) of The Mummy with Tom Cruise? First off, Cruise at this point is really more of an onscreen presence than actual thespian. Rather than sink his teeth into anything, Cruise remains content to sprint towards things or away from things and make silly quips and one-liners while doing his best to not look as short as he actually is next to his leading ladies. Here Cruise plays Nick Morton, an American solider of some kind who, along with his reluctant cohort Vail (New Girl’s Jake Johnson), disregards orders to traipse around the Middle East stealing artifacts to sell on the black market. It’s absurd—and not in a fun, Indiana Jones kind of way because at least Indy was all like, “It belongs in a museum!” It’s more like, Cruise-isn’t-ascharming-as-he-thinks-and-who-the-hell-decid-

During a routine theft attempt in Iraq, Nick and Vail unwittingly discover the ancient tomb (or is it?!) of an Egyptian princess (Sofia Boutella) who was buried alive for making a deal with the god Set so she could be all kinds of powerful. Wouldn’t you know it, though—they awaken her, she’s pissed and she’s gonna give Set Nick’s body so he can have dominion over life and death which, frankly, doesn’t sound all bad to us. Along for the ride is a beautiful archaeologist named Jennifer (Annabelle Wallis) with whom Nick shares one of those oh-so-playfully combative relationships (but they probably care deeply about each other). Jen has secrets of her own, though, like how she works for Russell Crowe who—twist!—plays Dr. Jekyll. Yes, yes— that Dr. Jekyll. See, Universal Studios is clearly telegraphing a return to their monster movie stable of yesteryear, and with sly nods to properties like the Creature from the Black Lagoon and vampires and stuff, it becomes clear to film fans (read: people of a certain age) that there’s plenty more where this came from whether we like it or not. The exposition becomes downright gratuitous at a certain point, and it isn’t long before we realize we’ve just been watching running punctuated by a few face-punches, and whatever light elements of Egyptology may have made it through seem squandered to a fault. No, this film is not as goofy-fun as the 1999 Brendan Fraser romp, and even far-superior CGI and a lack of
The Rock don’t make up for a dragging plot, god-awful writing and another forgettable turn from Cruise. Killing time? Knock yourselves out. Looking for something even slightly good? Move on. (ADV) Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 110 min.
WONDER WOMAN
7
++ GAL GADOT ABLY BLENDS BEAUTY AND BRAWN
-- RATHER FORMULAIC
The long-overdue Wonder Woman film is an origin story that doesn’t shrink from the beauty or brawn of a hero in whom the parallels of ancient mythology and modern superhero fiction become literal. Diana (Gal Gadot), the precocious daughter of Queen Hippolyta (Connie Nielsen), is a princess of the superhuman Amazons. The all-female tribe, originally created by Zeus to protect mortals, eventually withdrew to the mystical “Paradise Island” of Themyscira to escape man’s wickedness. But mankind interrupts paradise when American soldier and spy Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) crash-lands on Diana’s doorstep, during World War I, with a squadron of Germans in pursuit. As the far-off factions negotiate an armistice, a rogue German general (Danny Huston) and his maimed, mad chemist (Elena Anaya) concoct a new nerve agent that could tip the balance of the war. Hearing of the cataclysm and motivated by the mythological bedtime
stories of her childhood, Diana comes to believe that only she can save the world by leaving Themyscira and vanquishing Ares, the Greek god of war and an enemy of the Amazons. Arriving in World War I-era London, Diana peruses a new wardrobe to cover her utilitarian leather skirt and blend into a corseted, maledominated society as her alter ego, Diana Prince. “How do you fight in this attire?” the warrior unironically asks, donning an outfit that evokes the fashion of the women’s suffrage movement. The scene references the comicbook origins of Wonder Woman, whose creator, psychologist William Moulton Marston, was partly inspired by early-20th-century feminism. Director Patty Jenkins (Monster) was originally tapped to direct Thor 2 before leaving the Marvel Studios project due to creative differences. For more than a decade, she lobbied to helm a Wonder Woman film, and then got the gig after Michelle MacLaren dropped out. The result is the most grounded of the first four films in the evolving DC Extended Universe. It doesn’t reinvent the superhero origin story; it’s rather formulaic in that regard. Pine’s able mix of wit and earnestness serves him well as Diana’s sherpa and latent love interest, and Gadot strikes the right balance as an alluring, even playful idealist who relishes the battle but not the war. Wonder Woman isn’t a transcendent movie heroine à la Ellen Ripley from Alien or Imperator Furiosa from Mad Max: Fury Road. But she is seminal, if not singular, in modern superhero cinema. (Neil Morris) Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 141 min.
PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES
6
++ GHOST PIRATES! -- GHOST PIRATES…
Johnny Depp and crew are back as Captain Jack Sparrow and a bunch of bafflingly yet inextricably linked seafaring types in the newest installment of Disney/Jerry Bruckheimer’s Pirates franchise. Looks like Jack Sparrow ran afoul of a Spanish captain named Salazar (a wonderfully spooky Javier Bardem) some years ago and, as is the style of these films, that means supernatural curses for some reason and more acrobatic adventure for the likes of the formerly-also-cursed Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), Henry Turner (the son of Orlando Bloom’s Will Turner from previous films, as played by the incredibly conventionally handsome Brenton Thwaites from Gods of Egypt) and a brilliant if brash young scientist named Carina (The Maze Runner’s Kaya Scodelario). Young Henry wants to save his dad from

...and then Diana Prince punched a bunch of jerks all over Europe. service on the ghost ship Flying Dutchman, but he’ll need the fabled trident of Poseidon to do so. According to legend, anyone who’s got that thing is basically the king of the sea. The only catch is that to get that bad boy he’ll need a “map no man can read.” Good thing Carina is a woman (and also conveniently has the map), so they join Jack Sparrow to get that danged artifact while Salazar nips at their heels totally ready to kill everyone cause he straight crazy. Whereas the series took a bizarre turn many films ago and chooses to favor ghosts and stuff over good old-fashioned pirating, Dead Men isn’t as bad as you’d think. This isn’t to say it’s great by any means—more like you’ll probably never find yourself bored. Depp is … fine as Sparrow, but we’ve of course grown accustomed to his Keith Richards-y bumbling and damn-near-unbelievable ability to piss off every fucking ghost and curse victim throughout the Seven Seas. Bardem is brilliant as always and actually provides a fun villain, it’s just that everything else is fairly predictable at this point. Paul McCartney’s cameo, however, is a pure delight, and we would have watched a whole movie just with him being a goofball. Still, pirates get stabbed, and what else are you doing? (ADV) Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 129 min.
soundtrack are the real draw here, but Guardians also manages to drive home some fairly heavy material on the topics of family drama, friendship and, almost surprisingly, love—though never in a way as silly as the overarching plot would lead us to believe. There are, in fact, some downright moving scenes shared between Quill and his sorta-kinda adoptive father Yondu (an exceedingly fun Michael Rooker). And all the while, great tunes from the likes of Looking Glass, Cat Stevens and ELO blare through the speakers through firefights and space battles, gravity-defying Pac-Man references and, gleefully, the reveal of the fate of one Howard the Duck. Writer and director James Gunn absolutely nails the tone, and even when things become borderline too-serious, he knows just how to pull it out and make us laugh. Throw in excitingyet-brief appearances from heavyweights like Michelle Yeoh and Sylvester Stallone, and we’ve got what may be the perfect summer movie; the opening dance sequence alone is worth the price of admission. (ADV) Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 136 min.
GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2
9
++ SO FUN, SO FUNNY, SO COOL -- NOT AS IMPACTFUL AS THE FIRST FILM
In a sea of ultra-serious films based on comic books, melodrama fatigue becomes a serious concern. Thank goodness then for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, another excellent outing for the lesser-known Marvel heroes and one of the most incredibly fun franchises currently hitting theaters. Once again, we join Peter Quill/Star-Lord (Chris Pratt), Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Drax (Dave Bautista), Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper) and Groot (now in baby form but still voiced by Vin Diesel) as they unwittingly get swept up into the collective role of galactic saviors. When Quill’s father Ego (an excellent Kurt Russell) finally tracks him down after 30-plus years of searching, the humorous hero learns of his origins and—get this—they are dubious. Turns out his dad’s a god (“With a little ‘g,’” Ego says) with nefarious intentions, and the Guardians must step in to set him straight. Of course, the two-pronged approach of slapstick antics and absolutely killer

MIND BODY SPIRIT
Rob Brezsny
Week of July 6th
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Unless you were raised by a pack of feral raccoons or a fundamentalist cult, now is a perfect time to dive in to your second childhood. Is there a toy you wanted as a kid but never got? Buy it for yourself now! What were the delicious foods you craved back then? Eat them! Where were the special places you loved? Go there, or to spots that remind you of them. Who were the people you were excited to be with? Talk with them. Actions like these will get you geared up for a full-scale immersion in innocent eagerness. And that would be just the right medicine for your soul.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In 2003, the American Film Institute announced the creation of a new prize to honor acting talent. Dubbed the Charlton Heston Award, it was designed to be handed out periodically to luminaries who have distinguished themselves over the course of long careers. The first recipient of the award was, oddly enough, Charlton Heston himself, born under the sign of Libra. I hope you’re inspired by this story to wipe away any false modesty you might be suffering from. The astrological omens suggest it’s a favorable moment to create a big new award named after you and bestow it upon yourself. As part of the festivities, tell yourself about what makes you special, amazing, and valuable.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): What I wish for you, Taurus, is toasted ice cream and secrets in plain sight and a sacred twist of humorous purity. I would love for you to experience a powerful surrender and a calm climax and a sweeping vision of a small but pithy clue. I very much hope that you will get to take a big trip to an intimate turning point that’s not too far away. I pray you will find or create a barrier that draws people together instead of keeping them apart.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Here’s your riddle: What unscratchable itch drives you half-crazy? But you’re secretly glad it drives you half-crazy, because you know your half-craziness will eventually lead you to an experience or resource that will relieve the itch. Here’s your prophecy: Sometime soon, scratching the unscratchable itch will lead you to the experience or resource that will finally relieve the itch. Here’s your homework: Prepare GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In Dr. Seuss’s book, *Horton yourself emotionally to fully receive and welcome the Hatches an Egg,* an elephant assumes the duty of sitting new experience or resource. Make sure you’re not so on a bird’s egg, committed to keeping it warm until hatch- addicted to scratching the unscratchable itch that you ing time. The nest is located high in a tree, which makes fail to take advantage of the healing it’s bringing you. the undertaking even more incongruous. By the climax of SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The best way to go the tale, Horton has had to persist in his loyal service forward is to go backward; the path to the bright future through a number of challenges. But all ends well, and requires a shadowy regression. Put another way, you there’s an added bonus: The creature that’s born is miracshould return to the roots of a triumph in order to find a ulously part-bird, part-elephant. I see similarities between hidden flaw that might eventually threaten to undo your this story and your life right now, Gemini. The duty you’re success.

Approach it with humorous self-correcCANCER (June 21-July 22): It’s prime time for you to break through any inhibitions you might have about accessing and expressing your passion. To help you in this righteous cause, I’ve assembled a batch of words you should be ready to use with frequency and sweet abandon. Consider writing at least part of this list on your forearm with a felt-tip pen every morning so it’s always close at hand: enamored, piqued, enchanted, stirred, roused, enthused, delighted, animated, elevated, thrilled, captivated, turned-on, enthralled, exuberant, fired up, awakened.
