OPINION, APRIL 20: “GUTSY MOVE”
NOT WITH US Despite the fact that Lena Griffith praises us for our persistence in “Sign of the Times,”
we wish to dissociate ourselves from the last three unfortunate paragraphs of her letter. It is anti-Semitic to assign any specific cultural characteristics to all Jews, or indeed, all Israelis, and many argue that it promotes anti-Semitism for Israel to claim to represent all/or speak for all Jews as they often do. Progressive Jews and other peoples, both abroad and in Israel, decry the occupation and Israeli oppression of Palestinian rights. SANTA FEANS FOR JUSTICE IN PALESTINE SANTA FE
HATE-FILLED I cannot believe SFR actually published Lena Griffith’s hate-filled letter. There is nothing wrong with criticizing Israel per se. Its own citizens do it every day. But Ms. Griffith’s letter clearly crosses the line. As to the sign on Old Pecos Trail, the suggestion that Israel is an apartheid country is hate speech. I followed the events in South Africa years ago and see no similarities between that nation and Israel. And it goes without saying that comparing Israel to Nazis does not deserve the dignity of a response. As for the plight of the Palestinians, I suggest Ms. Griffith and Mr. Haas target their anger at the Palestinian leadership. Since the turn of this century, Yassar Arafat, who died as one of the world’s richest men, turned down two peace offers, while his successor Mahmoud Abbas, now in the 12th year of his five-year term, turned down another opportunity in 2008. ... I am not a Netanyahu fan, but it matters little who gov-
We are absolutely outraged that SFR printed Lena Griffith’s hateful and anti-Semitic letter to the editor. She justifies renewed antiSemitism around the world with the antiSemitic “blood-libel” claim, the same claim used for millennia to slaughter Jews. Her outrageous claims of atrocities committed in the name of the Jewish people needs to be condemned in the strongest language, not printed in a newspaper!
far more familiar to the people of Santa Fe now that we are officially boycotting North Carolina for one bigoted law, while Israel has 50+ laws which discriminate against its nonJewish citizens in addition to Occupation’s legal system) has unequivocally said antiSemitism has no place in our movement. The movement for justice and equality for Palestinians is rooted in a global movement against systemic forms of oppression, racism and bigotry. Lena Griffith’s use of anti-Semitic rhetoric to supposedly advance the Palestinian cause is a disservice to all of us pursuing justice in Israel/Palestine: Palestinians most of all. BEKAH WOLF SANTA FE
TODD GOLDBLUM, BARBARA EINHORN ALBUQUERQUE
DISSERVICE TO EFFORT As a life-long member of Santa Fe’s Jewish community and an anti-Zionist, I was appalled by Ms. Griffith’s crass, anti-Semitic remarks. ... People of all faiths, including Jews, have been working for Palestinian dignity, equality and justice for as long as Palestinians have been displaced from their homes and deprived of their rights. The criticism of the Israeli state’s policies towards Palestinians expressed by groups like Jewish Voice for Peace (which Ms. Griffith erroneously claims she is allied with) is rooted in values of equality for all peoples.

Wolves In, Wolves Out Species recovery and management effort has feds placing pups, removing adult wolf this season BY EL IZABE TH M I LLE R el i zab eth @ s fre p o r te r.co m
W
ithin weeks of when US Fish and Wildlife Service staff hiked into the Gila Wilderness to a Mexican wolf den to add two 9-day-old wolf pups to a family this spring, a separate team was also working to trap and return to captivity an adult Mexican wolf linked to three cattle depredations. “The Fish and Wildlife Service is trying desperately to be able to work with the local communities but still do their job of recovering the species, and it’s a tough spot for them to be in,” says Regina H Mossotti, director of animal care and conservation at the Endangered Wolf Center in Missouri, where the two wolf pups were born. Mossotti hiked for a mile and a half into the wilderness with the pups in a backpack, after having fetched them from their parents’ den in the middle of the night. She then took a commercial flight to Albuquerque, the wolves nestled beneath the seat in front of her. These were the first captive-born pups to be cross-fostered as part of the Mexican wolf recovery program, a historic occasion, she says. “We’re just doing everything that our wolf biologists are trying to do to improve the gene diversity within the wild population,” says John Bradley, in external affairs with the US Fish and Wildlife Service. “We really don’t want to get too far ahead of ourselves on why we’re doing it right now.” The stars that had to align for this time-sensitive mission began with captive and wild wolves whelping on nearly the same day, and included securing lastminute transportation across state lines, staff and cooperative weather. Success will be measured later, when pups can be counted in photos. “It is a huge step for the population as far as genetics,” Mossotti says. “When you’re talking about a critically endangered species, the most important factor with cross-fostering isn’t necessarily the amount of animals that are out there, it’s getting new genetics into the wild population that will help keep that wild population healthy.” Adult releases have been central to wolf recovery programs across the country, but cross-fostering is hoped to increase the success of wild wolves, which can be defined not only by their ability to survive but also by them avoiding the kind of conflicts with humans that can lead to them being killed or recaptured. “When you have a wild animal—who has a territory established, who has learned how to hunt elk, who knows how to stay away from people, who knows how to protect their territory from other wolves, who has these experiences—teach these puppies, raise them in a way to be super successful out in the wild, that’s the best chance you can give these puppies to survive,” Mossotti says. Just weeks before, the Mexican Wolf Interagency Field Team had been working to trap an adult male Mexican wolf from the Luna Pack believed to be prey-

ing on cattle. Those management activities ceased until last week to avoid accidentally trapping his female mate while she might be pregnant, which could have caused injury to her or her unborn pups. Two females died during the annual population count and capture operations of Mexican wolves in January, some of the losses that contributed to a population drop from 110 to 97 in the last year. The service has cited inbreeding among a population now considered as genetically similar as siblings as one of the causes for overruling the outcry from the state wildlife division. The Luna Regina H Mossotti, of the Endangered Wolf Center, examines captive-born Mexican Pack female is considered “the wolf pup just before she is put into a wild den in southwestern New Mexico. most genetically unique known breeding female in the wild population,” according to the “It’s a tough situation down in New Mexico and USFWS, so they are taking precautions to protect her Arizona right now, and for Fish and Wildlife Service chances to reproduce. to step up to the plate and help this species survive The Luna Pack female only recently joined with via releases is, again, a huge accomplishment,” Mossthis male wolf, previously from the Fox Mountain otti says. “Wolves are a very controversial species, and Pack.

1.
State and federal government. (SFR: “Okay. If state government were not considered an industry, what would it be? Like, for example, in state government there is the transportation department. Transportation is an industry.”) I mean state and federal government is the highest percentage of employees in our state. (SFR: “Right, but as far as an industry goes, what would it be?”) Are you talking about private industry? (SFR: “No, I’m saying largest industry in terms of employment. State government is the largest employer, right? But within the state government, there are different industries.”) Right, I would say the hospitality industry.
2. Most of them were flat. Public safety.
HUGH LEY is a former San Miguel County commissioner. MIKE ANAYA is a former Santa Fe County commissioner.
LIZ STEFANICS is a Santa Fe County commissioner.
Um, I’ll say public education, but if so it was very minimal. And the third one, let’s say—I don’t think it was Medicaid either. The largest increase—repeat that question? (SFR repeats the question.) Let’s say education, which covers early childhood. Let’s say public safety. And let’s say transportation.
3. There has to be a joint resolution that’s
voted on by both houses—the House and the Senate—and then it goes to the voters for approval on a general election ballot.
4. I believe it’s $50. 5. The Department of Environment or
the Department of Health. I think environment deals with bathroom and sewer, but health deals with the cleanliness of the kitchens and stuff like that.
HOUSE DISTRICT 48 PAUL CAMPOS is a former Santa Fe County commissioner. 1.
You’re talking about private industry? (SFR: “I’m just talking in general.”) I would say, probably, federal government. (SFR: “The way we’ve been handling that is saying government is not an industry, but rather, an employer.”) I would say probably the hospitals in New Mexico, health care, is probably the biggest employer in New Mexico.
LINDA TRUJILLO is president of the Santa Fe Board of Education. 1.
The state government? (SFR: “I’m going to say that’s not an industry, so try again.”) Oh, okay. So you mean outside of state and federal government? (SFR: “Okay, so in state government, you have the Department of Transportation, so transportation is an industry.”) Oh, I see what you’re saying. So, education?
2. Corrections, CYFD and education. 3. The process is, first of all, there has to be
a resolution that can start in either the House or Senate. But it has to be passed by a majority in both sides. Then it goes
out to the people at the next general election, and it has to be passed by a simple majority, unless it’s one of the exemptions. There are few exemptions that require threefourths in the House and the Senate and threefourths of the people. I don’t know those exact exemptions, but that’s really rare. Usually its just a simple majority of the House and the Senate and a vote of the population. 4. I believe $250. 5. The environment department.
2. I’m not sure. I can’t answer that
question. I don’t know.
3. Ordinarily, it’s through referendum,
which the House and Senate can approve without gubernatorial approval. That’s one way I know.
4. I don’t think they can accept
anything, or they shouldn’t be able to.
5. Restaurants, restaurants. The health

POJOAQUE PUEBLO IS THE LAST HOLDOUT IN A FIGHT OVER THE STATE’S CUT OF GAMING REVENUES
BY STE VE N H S I E H s teve n @ s fre po r ter.co m

MAY 11-17, 2016

SFREPORTER.COM
few days before the Pueblo of Pojoaque’s 10-year gaming compact with New Mexico was set to expire last year, tribal governor Joseph Talachy sat across from the state’s chief negotiator, Jeremiah Ritchie, at a table in the Roundhouse. Lawyers filled the remaining seats. Though they had gathered to strike a deal, it soon became clear that neither side had any intention of making concessions. Talachy asked for an extension of the Pueblo’s current gaming compact until the state and tribe could reach an agreement on a new one. But the state maintained that its terms, which five other tribes had already signed, were fair. It was late June. The Pueblos of Acoma and Jemez, the Jicarilla Apache Nation, the Mescalero Apache and the Navajo Nation all entered into similar compacts with the state that April. Ten more tribes would eventually join them. Under the new provisions, New Mexico would raise its cut of Pojoaque Pueblo’s gross gaming revenue, essentially a tax, from 8 percent to a max of 10.5 percent, gradually increasing over a 23-year period. In 2014, the tribe’s last full year of revenue sharing, it reported net wins of about $61 million, calling for the Pueblo to turn over about $4.8 million to state coffers. Talachy viewed any tax hike as a deal-breaker. Casino revenue helps pay for the tribe’s $43 million payroll, tribal police department, foster care system, day care and water infrastructure, among other essentials. It also partially funds the Pojoaque Boys and Girls Club, Wellness Center and Senior Center, all services shared with the surrounding, non-Native community. An extraordinary education program, which sends tribal members to college for free, is completely subsidized by gaming money. The casino businesses themselves, which include hotels, restaurants, shops and a wedding chapel, employ about 800 New Mexico residents. At the Roundhouse, Talachy refused to pick up the pen. “I don’t care what anybody says about revenue sharing. It’s an illegal tax,” he tells SFR. “Why do we fight? Because my stores of maize are being depleted already, and now if I give that up, that means the well-being
of my people ultimately gets negatively impacted.” Ritchie, who is also deputy chief of staff for Gov. Susana Martinez, gave Talachy a moment to consider the offer. But Pojoaque Pueblo’s tribal council had already determined its strategy would be to “fight with all we got,” as Talachy tells it. Before the door closed behind Ritchie, Talachy stood up, walked to the exit and relayed his answer. “I stopped short of telling him to shove the compact up his ass,” he recalls. “He came back in and was completely flustered. Red-faced. Beet red. He was just violently angry.” Ritchie said he would give the Pueblo more time to deliberate. (A spokesman for the New Mexico governor’s office wouldn’t confirm or deny that version of events.) A few days after the meeting, Talachy raced his pickup truck around his tribe’s land, about 15 miles north of Santa Fe. The gaming compact was set to expire at midnight. Talachy imagined US Marshals wheeling slot machines out of Cities of Gold and Buffalo Thunder, the tribe’s two casinos. Just months into his governorship, he would feel humiliated if Pojoaque’s largest employers shuttered under his watch. “The main thing that was going through my mind was failure,” he says. He spoke with tribal police officers about what they should do if the feds decided to take action. He considered options for civil disobedience, as previous governors had done. “Nothing was off the table,” he explains. Ritchie called. Once again, the state’s negotiator asked if Pojoaque would accept the 2015 provisions. Talachy repeated the same answer he gave in the Roundhouse, understanding that he had just shut the door on the state, leaving his casinos in a legal gray zone. Also on his mind were two ongoing lawsuits, one between Pojoaque Pueblo and New Mexico, and the other between the state and the US Department of the Interior. The latter case, currently under appeal, could determine whether the tribe will be allowed to legally operate its casinos. During the past few years, Talachy made regular trips to Washington DC to meet with the representatives from the Bureau of Indian Affairs, to plead for recourse should their negotiations with the state collapse. And just two days prior, he had sent a letter to the New Mexico US Attorney’s Office, stating the Pueblo intended to keep its casinos’ lights on, with or without the state’s approval.

PUEBLO OF POJOAQUE, POEH CENTER
Jacob Viarrial served as Pojoaque Pueblo governor for more than two decades, during a pivotal period of its history.
Viarrial’s protest wrote itself into tribal lore. The governor had already long-secured his spot. During Viarrial’s tenure, which spanned more than two decades before his death in 2004, the Pojoaque Pueblo evolved from a sparse plot of hills and dales to a strip of apartments, shops and restaurants, perhaps the most developed stretch of highway in north Santa Fe County. Casino jobs lifted tribal members out of abject poverty. Culture thrived. Everybody in Pojoaque has a story about the late governor, who many refer to as “Uncle Jake.” He would occasionally load up a vehicle with Pueblo children and take them to Disneyland. Tribal members assumed Viarrial was joking when he shared his plans to open a laundromat called Jake’s Dirty Shorts. He was not kidding. “He was such a generous and loving man,” says Sandra Romero, a tribal council member and biological niece of Viarrial. “And I think my nephew Joe is taking after him.” The Pojoaque Pueblo adopted Joseph back into the tribe when he was 4 years old. Talachy’s birth mother, Angie Viarrial, relocated to Chicago as a teenager, where she would eventually work as nurse’s assistant. Talachy’s father was a mechanic of German descent. When life took a turn for the worse in Chicago, Angie felt her son would be better off on the reservation. She called Jake Viarrial, in this case her actual uncle, who arranged for Joe’s adoption. The child landed at the home of Thelma Talachy, another former governor. After Thelma adopted him, Joe took on her last name. About five years later, he was walking across a street in Española when a pickup truck barrelled down the road and knocked him over. He remembers seeing Thelma, who had rushed to his side, covered in blood as she called for help. “Worst day of my life,” she says. He worked his first summer job at 14, digging trenches and cranking pumps for the reservation’s

sewage system. “I think that’s where I got my work ethic from,” he says. Occassionally, he pulled a syringe out of the pipes. Eddie Lopez, Talachy’s supervisor at the time, says, “I wanted to show him that there’re better things in life than making six dollars an hour.” If the sewers imbued Talachy with discipline, then St. Catherine’s Indian School in Santa Fe, where he boarded for four years, developed his sense of indignation. Talachy didn’t make many Hispanic friends. His light complexion didn’t ingratiate him with other Native kids either. “I got a lot of crap,” he recalls. “But I also learned how to fight, how to stand up for myself.” Talachy dropped out of high school his senior year and started working for Los Alamos National Bank. In 2005, he entered the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center and graduated at the top of his class. After several years serving as a tribal police officer (“I arrested my cousins but always treated them with dignity and respect”), Talachy worked for Pojoaque Pueblo’s risk and safety management division. The Pueblo’s tribal council elected him lieutenant governor in 2009. He served as second in command to Gov. George Rivera, who is best known for revitalizing tribal arts and establishing a number of social services. Rivera also oversaw the opening of Buffalo Thunder, a 60,000-square-foot resort that includes 393

hotel rooms and a 36-hole golf course. It also houses a colorful gaming floor where gamblers can play blackjack, craps and roulette, or try their luck on hundreds of slot machines with names like Gong Xi Fa Cai and Mustang. As lieutenant governor, Talachy focused much of his attention on employing tribal members in Pojoaque’s gaming industry, despite pushback from casino management. “Somehow there was that stereotype that Indians are drunks and lazy, so they wouldn’t hire Indians there,” says Elizabeth Duran, who served as the first female Pueblo governor in New Mexico. “And Joe told them, ‘This is a business of ours, and we are not going to tolerate a corporate policy that our Indian people will not employed because of stereotypes.’” When he started as lieutenant governor, you could count on one hand the number of tribal members working for the casinos on the corporate side. Today, there are more than 35. It was also during this time that Talachy became involved with the compact negotiations, sitting at his first roundtable meeting with state officials and other tribal leaders. By the time the Pojoaque Pueblo elect-
ed Talachy governor in 2015, he was intimately familiar with the process. The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, passed by Congress in 1988, sought to reach a delicate balance of state and tribal interests as casinos proliferated on reservations. The law requires states and tribes to negotiate oversight of gaming operations. It was supposed to clear up fuzziness at the intersection of federal, state and tribal jurisdiction, but the law ultimately led to more confusion. The act created a framework for states to enter compacts with tribes, under the condition that both parties negotiate in good faith. States often offered gaming exclusivity rights to Native tribes in exchange for a share of casino revenue. But as tribal casinos increased in numbers, exclusivity became less valuable, writes Matthew Fletcher, a professor of Indigenous law at Michigan State University. Some tribes felt that states were asking for too much, giving too little or refusing to come to the table at all, and they took to the courts. In the early ’90s, tribes from Oklahoma to Connecticut filed lawsuits asserting states refused to negotiate with them in good faith. States usually hid behind the 11th Amendment, which bars sovereign entities from suing one another. The lower courts split on whether states could claim sovereign immunity in these situations. When the issue went to the US Supreme Court in Seminole Tribe v Florida, the justices ruled in favor of Florida, essentially striking down the tribes’ only recourse in the event of bad faith negotiations. In response, the Interior Department created a procedure for tribes to negotiate directly with the federal government for gaming compacts. Pojoaque went this route in 2014, after losing a lawsuit with the state over sovereign immunity protections. In turn, New Mexico sued the federal government, challenging the Interior Department’s authority to negotiate compacts directly with tribes. A district court ruled in the state’s favor. The case is currently under review by the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, and Fletcher says it’s likely to hit the Supreme Court eventually. A separate lawsuit that the Pueblo filed last year against the state is also pending. When US Attorney Martinez sent his letter to Talachy hours before the Pojoaque Pueblo’s compact expired, it cleared the tribe to continue casino operations as the appeal moved through the courts—despite not having a state-tribal compact or an agreement with the secretary of the interior. As long as they followed all the laws regulating tribal gaming and saved a portion of revenues in escrow for when the compact issue is resolved, the Pueblo would be safe from prosecution. Hour later, a spokesperson for Gov. Martinez issued a statement, saying the US attorney’s decision “provides no protection to banks, credit card vendors, gaming machine vendors, advertisers, bondholders, and others that are now doing business with an illegal gambling enterprise.” Martinez’ statement struck tribal members as a threat. Their fears were shortly confirmed. Two weeks after Pojoaque’s compact expired, the New Mexico Gaming Control Board determined in a closed-door session that the tribe was running illegal gaming operations and stopped approving license
a person that could not lawfully own or operate the gaming device.” At least two vendors stopped providing equipment to Buffalo Thunder and Cities of Gold, including, most significantly, a new computer system that runs many of their gaming machines. Without the system, the tribe stood to lose an estimated $300,000 a month, according to court filings. “I was fucking livid. It was really kind of a Mafia tactic, almost,” Talachy says. “I anticipated every one of these attacks, and I anticipate more.” The Pueblo immediately sought a court order to stop the state from meddling with the tribe’s vendors.

applications or renewals for vendors that sold equipment or software to Pojoaque Pueblo. In early September, the board sent audit notices to the Pueblo’s vendors, asking them to turn over any records of their business with the tribe’s casinos. Later that month, Terrence Bailey, the executive director of Pojoaque’s gaming operations, met with some of the tribe’s vendors at an expo in Las Vegas, Nevada. Bailey learned the state gaming board sent citations to businesses that sold equipment or software to Pojoaque casinos. One citation sent to Aristocrat Technologies, Inc. says the company violated New Mexico gaming laws by selling “gaming devices to
Gov. Joseph Talachy, a former Pojoaque Pueblo policeman, made it a priority to employ more tribal members at its casinos.
In its request, the tribe called its current situation a “throw back to one of the darkest times in the history of European conquest, when the pueblos were required to pay a tribute tax, whereby the Spanish confiscated the pueblos’ maize and other resources, and deprived the pueblos’ ability to self-sustain.” US Judge District Robert Brack ruled in favor of Pojoaque Pueblo. “Defendants’ harassment and threatening conduct directed at the vendors is a thinly disguised attempt to accomplish indirectly that which Defendants know they are without authority or jurisdiction to accomplish directly,” Brack wrote. He ordered the state to stop punishing vendors for doing business with Pojoaque Pueblo. No one from the governor’s office would grant an interview to SFR about the compact issue. In response to emailed questions, Gov. Martinez spokesman Michael Lonergan writes, “The State has taken great care to protect the interests of its communities and industry in good faith. The fact is, Pojoaque Pueblo is operating its casinos in violation of federal law and taking advantage of the smaller gaming tribes that have negotiated in good faith and managed their facilities responsibly.” Both the tribe’s case with the state and the state’s case with the feds are still in limbo. One recent afternoon, I accompany Talachy for a drive around Pojoaque that circles through the reservation and the surrounding valley. For 40 minutes, the governor surveys the land that used to belong to his tribe. As we chat, Talachy periodically pauses his train of thought to point toward a patch of farmland or a stretch of homes. “That’s private property, right there,” he repeats over and over. We drive by rocks caked in dirt cliffsides: ruins. “You can see the discolored area. There was a structure there,” Talachy explains. As we follow a section of the Rio Grande, he notes that it still belongs to the tribe. “But what am I supposed to do with the river?” When the tribe was still in compact talks with New Mexico, Talachy says he took a state negotiator on the same drive. He hoped to offer some perspective on why his tribe feels so strongly about getting a fair deal. After the painful era of Spanish conquest, which wrought disease and famine, the Pueblo of Pojoaque nearly disappeared. In 1934, a newspaper notice invited Pojoaque natives to reclaim their land. Fourteen people re-established the Pueblo. Today, there are nearly 500 tribal members. “I think the reason why we fight is, we’ve been in a position of having nothing,” Talachy says. “We know what it feels like to be almost extinct. The most valuable land in the valley taken away from us, and that’s not enough for you? Americans have short memories. This administration has no memory.” As we pull up to the tribal council chambers, a woman and her two children, a boy and a girl, step out of their vehicle. The boy runs up to Talachy’s truck. He is carrying one of his own. “Whatchu doing, man? That’s awesome,” the governor says to the boy from his driver side window. “Should we take our kids to that meeting tonight or no?” the mother asks. “Yeah, yeah. It would be good to take them.”

A young woman’s family dies in a car accident, and afterward she finds her sister’s D&D books and uses them to reconnect with her. “It talks about bullying and that feeling that the world doesn’t accept you for who you are. That’s a universal theme regardless if you know anything about Dungeons and Dragons.” (Ben Kendall)

To cap the whole thing off, Skylight offers $2 tacos and Tecates plus $2 slices of pizza, courtesy of their brand-new pizza oven. So basically, Revolver is going to save all our lives. It’s definitely cool of Skylight to finally offer up some events for non-DJ folks that go past 9:30, and if you can find a problem with $2 pizza, you’ve got worse problems than that. “This was always the kind of event I wanted to run and the kind of thing that I’d want to go to,” Deluxe says. “It’s like everything I envision Santa Fe being, with art and food and music in one place, and it’s just being there for the community with something a little different.” (Alex De Vore)

Two young girls carry a large tentacle against a stark background. A woman hangs upside down by one foot, much like The Hanged Man tarot card, from an ivy vine, her eyes flashing gold with a suggested eldritch power; a smug smile crosses her visage. Outside the Lines, a new show from Megan Gold and Drew McGee, opening at the Art.i.factory on Saturday, is gleefully unusual. “It’s drawing figurative monsters meets little kids. And they’re both self-taught artists,” says co-owner of the gallery Jennifer Rowland. Any art with monsters in it is pretty cool, we say.

We all love Skylight and everything, but the fact is that they can be a little DJ-centric. We get it, that’s cool— you’ve got a business to run. But for those who prefer their music to err more on the rock ’n’ roll side of things, with people playing instruments, for example, there’s good news: Local punk/rock frontwoman Jessie Deluxe (of Jessie Deluxe and Fox White fame) now helms an evening of rock goodness every single Tuesday night that she has dubbed “Revolver.” “I like to call it Revolver because I think of it like a revolving door of talent,” Deluxe says. “I want to find these people who say, ‘Hey! I wanna do spoken word!’ or, ‘Hey! I wanna play rock!’ or, ‘Hey! I wanna take all my clothes off and read a poem!’” For the upcoming second installment of the series, Deluxe welcomes Scarlet Cortex, a rock/blues fusion act that features some pretty mind-boggling guitar work courtesy of Santa Fe University of Art and Design graduate Matt Ruder. Spoken word performer Sasha LaPointe appears as well, and the mysterious Kasandra offers tarot readings. Deluxe herself will DJ the night as well and play, in her words, “everything from Misfits to Zombies,”

JARED WEISS
I’ll See You in My Jared Weiss’ artwork tours through the half-forgotten and nearly suppressed
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
L
ike those candy-colored memories from childhood, Jared Weiss’ paintings can’t really be trusted to tell you the whole story, or to relay the details that could cue an accurate interpretation of what happened. But the effect of that obfuscation—of dark canvases in which the faces are lost in shadow or blurred into the background, of gestures only half finished and unclear in their direction, of the strange juxtapositions and those random objects that do come oddly and sharply into focus—is to render visible some pieces of what was, but what has been largely buried by what might also have been. The layers of meaning, encoded in architectural elements and objects only Weiss really understands, pile up as he paints, he says. He’s often not sure where they’re leading until they arrive, near finished, on his canvas. “Each painting is like a dream you have. When it shows up and there that thing is, you don’t really question it. … It just makes sense in that space and you just go with it,” he says. The palette, which pushes toward surreal in its choices of pinks, teals, reds, and yellows, hints at exaggeration, and that the shine is only a distraction. “You can tell that there’s something underneath this surface that you can’t ever see,” Weiss says during a conversation at his sunlit studio off West Alameda, near Betterday Coffee, where he works as a barista. “I think painting is inherently related to the unconscious like that. It’s kind of an image that projects itself in a false way but a necessary way.” He draws that notion in part from the often-overlooked Freudian theory of “screen memories” that posits that those vividly recalled memories from childhood have no relationship to what actually happened, but have instead been severely distorted by adult wishes and fantasies. “What was highlighted as the most significant feature of memory was indeed just a portion of an elaborate mosaic that could only have been reduced to a single image by doing considerable violence to the total com-
The context of Weiss’ paintings are intentionally ambiguous. Meaning is left to the imagination of the beholder.
plexity of the entire memorial record,” Columbia College analyst Eugene Mahon wrote in an essay building on Freud’s theory that was published earlier this year. “A screen memory is a subjectively experienced memory fragment that makes a luminous display of itself in consciousness, the better to fulfill its unconscious motivation to conceal more than it reveals.” (Interestingly, the neural network theory of memory formation and retrieval has borne this out, another scholar argues, as has the rise of memoirs.) In short, what happened is less important than its effect. And so it goes with Weiss’ artwork, which is headed to the Adobe Rose Theater for a solo show, titled You Can’t Your Horse in Here, that opens on Thursday, May 12, with a reception at 6 pm on Sunday, May 15. Weiss grew up in Ohio, moved to Santa Fe four years ago, then spent two years completing an MFA at the San Francisco Art Institute before moving back last summer. He went to graduate school to abandon a style of painting he describes as “very precious”— ghostlike, white-on-white images, the subjects for which he drew from found photographs of a distant past that belonged to strangers. “This work needed to be broken,” he says. The result brought him closer to home, to his own past and the friends, houses and buildings that have dominated it. “This is what I’ve been wanting to make for a long time,” he says. “I just didn’t quite know how to do it.” The ongoing evolution has seen his painting become more abstract, the figures losing some of their polish, and gaining, along the way, more space for imagination. Weiss still often works from photo-
graphs, but now those images blend photos from one time and place with another in his life. “I’m taking disparate elements of my memory, my life, collecting them together, collapsing them into this space and creating this third other thing that’s not really a real memory, but it kind of hints at it and becomes something other that hopefully confuses itself,” Weiss says. Holding a recent photo of friends at a party he hosted, who now appear to stand in the industrial lumberyard his family runs in Ohio, a space they’ve never been and will likely never be, he says, “I want it to be a little clunky and not make total sense here. This is kind of like the skeleton that you build something off of and it becomes more intense as a painting, and moves even more to this sense of trying to remember a dream after you’ve woken up. But I want it to have this rough quality.” He recognizes the signifiers in these environments and the spaces he’s drawing from, but it’s unlikely anyone else will decode those cues to come to the same conclusion. With no benefit of his memories or personal history, a viewer instead pieces together a narrative to respond to the questions his paintings raise, and what’s historic for him becomes uniquely personal in the eye of the beholder. Pair the paintings and their titles, such as “The Whole Story Told, As Is,” of two humans bent over some unclear task in front of a backdrop of turquoise hills and a hot pink sky, and “So Long as One Knows, One Can Bide One’s Time, One Knows What to Expect, No Further Need to Worry,” of a woman in a dress brandishing a fire extinguisher though there’s no visible fire, and, he says, “It should be a little bit like a maze with no way out.” It becomes, then, the content of dreams, already half lost by the time eyes have opened.

THE CALENDAR
Straight male, 48, married 14 years, three kids under age 10. Needless to say, life is busy at our house. My wife and I have stopped having sex. It was my decision. I get the obligation vibe combined with a vanilla sex life, and it just turns me off. We’ve had many conversations about it and we want to find a balance. But it always defaults back to infrequent and dull, making me frustrated and cranky. For the past two months, I’ve tried to just push sex out of my mind. We live mostly as parenting roommates. We used to be pretty kinky—dirty talk, foursomes, toys, porn, etc.—but all those things wear her out now, and her interest has disappeared. My guess is that she was just playing along with my kinks to keep me happy and is now over it. Is this just life as a 48-year-old married father of three? Am I being selfish for wanting more in my sex life than my wife is willing to offer? -Hard Up Husband Is sex wearing your wife out, HUH, or is raising three kids wearing your wife out? I suspect it’s the latter. But in answer to your question: Infrequent and underwhelming sex, sometimes with an obligatory vibe, is not only the sex life a 48-year-old married father of three can expect, it’s the sex life he signed up for. There’s nothing selfish about wanting more sex or wanting it to be more like it was. Kids, however, are a logistical impediment—but a temporarily one, provided you don’t go nuclear. A couple’s sex life can come roaring back so long as they don’t succumb to bitterness, recrimination, and sexlessness. To avoid all three, HUH, it might help to ask yourself which is the likelier scenario: for years your wife faked an interest in dirty talk, foursomes, toys, porn, etc., in order to trap you, or your wife is currently too exhausted to take an interest in dirty talk, foursomes, toys, porn, etc. Again, I suspect it’s the latter. My advice: masturbate more, masturbate together more, lower your expectations so you’ll be pleasantly surprised when a joint masturbation session blows up into something bigger and better, carve out enough time for quality sex (weekends away, if possible, with pot and wine and Viagra), discuss other accommodations/contingencies as needed, and take turns reminding each other that small kids aren’t small forever. I’m one of those bi guys. I had trouble dating girls in high school and at 18 found guys so much darn easier. And as sexual promiscuity in the gay world goes, I got around there easily. Fast-forward a few years. I’m in college now and desiring women and stability more. But women find me weird and awkward—I admit I am—something I was never judged for in the gay world. This has been going on for a few years now, and it just gets worse when I’m supposed to be parading around presenting as a horny straight guy. I’d love to find a bisexual woman to start a family with who is up for mutually agreed upon swingand-fun sessions with others. But from what I’ve experienced with girls so far—always on the watch for a “player,” zero understanding of male bisexuality—that seems far from possible. Lately I’ve just been sitting on my hands in social situations, afraid to even interact with women. Is this therapy worthy? -Upset Pittsburgher In Troubling Times Therapy couldn’t hurt… unless you get a terrible therapist… in which case it could.

find a good/sex-positive one. As for why your “weird and awkward” first impression seemed to be less of an impediment when you were sleeping with men: Men aren’t subjected to male sexual violence at the same rates that women are. Women have a lot more to fear than men do, UPITT, and a weird-and-awkward first impression is far likelier to turn off a woman into dudes than it is to turn off a man into dudes. The man you flirt with at a party might think, “Dude’s weird and awkward but he’s hot,” and jump into bed with you. But the woman you flirt with at a party is likely to think, “Dude’s weird and awkward and he’s hot, but he’s just too weird to risk it.” Something else that couldn’t hurt: getting on a site like OkCupid and approaching bisexual women there. You may have better luck with women if your initial interactions are over e-mail. And finally, UPITT, there are gay and bi men out there who desire stability, too—and stability and “promiscuity” aren’t mutually exclusive. About your answer to WHAT, the lady whose boyfriend “accidentally” ass-fucked her. I am a queer lady with a number of men in my sexual history, and I have many straight women friends who get around. “I didn’t mean to stick my dick in your ass” is a lie that men tell—men who are embarrassed to ask for anal, men who want it so bad they’re prepared to hurt their partner, or men who think their partner will say no if asked and just don’t care. In all cases, these are men who do not even begin to understand how anal sex works. As you say, it’s not an accident. But what you don’t say is that these men are telling lies in order to get out of taking responsibility for their desires and the fact that they’ve hurt their partners. Men who want to have anal sex need to talk that through with their partners and then either figure out how to do it safely and pleasurably, accept that it’s not happening, or break up if it’s a deal breaker. I have had way too many conversations with women friends about the pain and anger and sometimes shame that they’ve felt when male partners have just stuck it in abruptly, unlubricated, and without permission. It makes me really angry that this is something that men can describe as an “accident” without any pushback, and honestly it was kind of gross and disappointing when your answer was just jokes about butt plugs. -Whatever Acronym Strongly Stresses Underlying Point I’m with you, WASSUP. I don’t think anal happens by accident. Anal has always, in my vast experience, required lube, focus, precision, and deep breathing. But on the two occasions when I’ve urged straight female callers on the Savage Lovecast to dump boyfriends who “accidentally” penetrated them anally—the pushback from male and female listeners was overwhelming. Scores of people called in to insist that anal can and does happen by accident. WHAT’s boyfriend has accidentally penetrated her anally four times in a year. That raises a red flag. But WHAT was convinced it was an accident (all four times) and seemed to think her boyfriend felt genuinely terrible about it (all four times), and I deferred to a reader’s POV (just one time). And here’s a detail that was cut from WHAT’s letter for space: “People have suggested going slow, but I like it a little rough.” Perhaps I should’ve come down harder on WHAT’s boyfriend—okay, I should’ve come down harder—but it seemed possible, at least in WHAT’s case, that anal might’ve been an accident (all four times?!?). I still believe “accidental anal” is much more likely to be “intentional, nonconsensual anal,” aka not an accident at all.

After winning an astonishing number of awards both before and after college at Juilliard, classical pianist Sean Chen is doing what he loves best: travelling the country to play at a wide range of venues. This will be his second time at the Santa Fe Beethoven Festival (7 pm Saturday, May 14, and 4 pm Sunday, May 15, $23, at the Lensic, 211 W San Francisco St, 988-1234). (Cybele Mayes-Osterman) What’s the rundown for the festival? I’m playing Beethoven’s Choral Fantasy, which is a piece for piano, orchestra and chorus. It is an interesting piece, because it’s one of the only pieces for that arrangement, and it’s sort of the prototype to the 9th Symphony; the 9th Symphony has a chorus too, and the melody is kind of similar too, so it’s kind of interesting. After that, I’m playing the Lizst arrangement for the 4th movement to the 5th Symphony, in keeping with the Beethoven theme.

What is your own background in music? Three years ago, I was fortunate enough to win two competitions. I got third place at the Van Cliburn Competition, and I won the award for the American Pianists Association classical fellowship. Both competitions have a management and tour schedule as part of the prize. I have been travelling and playing since then. I did my studies at Juilliard, I did undergrad and master’s at Juilliard, and then I went to Yale to do my artist diploma. What role did Beethoven play in your musical education? I’ve always felt an affinity for his music. It’s both emotional and expressive but also very intellectual and very powerful. He’s got all sorts of music and all sorts of instrumentation: piano sonatas, chamber music, orchestra music; I enjoy all of it. I especially like listening to the non-piano stuff, because I play piano, and you get sick and tired of hearing the piano all the time. His symphonies are great, and it’s always fun to learn something Beethoven wrote. It’s also a challenge.

Pho in the Wall Vietnamese fare at Saigon Café comes with a retro vibe BY GWYNETH DOLAND t h e f o r k @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
T
he food and the atmosphere of Saigon Café (501 W Cordova Road, 988-4951) provide a cool respite on a blisteringly sunny Santa Fe day. With lowered window shades, the small dining room becomes a dark cave bathed in the purple glow of a neon sign saying “Welcome Saigon Café” on the wood-paneled back wall. Potted palms, banana plants and hanging philodendrons give a hint of lush, humid Saigon. The neon establishes a retro vibe that’s reinforced by a short lunch counter with three low, old-fashioned spinning stools, where folks can wait to pick up a togo order. And the cozy booths have marbled Formicatopped tables. A couple of busy servers give quick, pleasant service during the bustling lunch hour, bringing cold glasses of iced jasmine green tea and sodas from the Coke fountain. The menu offers a standard selection of fresh spring rolls and rice noodle dishes, plus stir-fried noodles and fried rice. There’s beef pho ($9.95), the soup that serves as a warming breakfast dish in northern Vietnam. Although the meaty broth really makes this dish, there are vegetarian versions available with tofu. (Saigon also offers broccoli, mushrooms and tofu as inexpensive add-ons to any dish, which is a nice touch for vegetarians and people who just like vegetables.) From the appetizer menu, the egg roll wrapped spring roll ($6.50 for two) is a twist on the usual that has several appealing qualities. It’s stuffed with a thin piece of still-warm spiced grilled pork, lettuce and herbs, plus, hidden in the middle, the ingredient mentioned in the dish’s name: crushed pieces of fried egg roll wrapper. How delightful! Plus, there are no rice vermicelli in this roll, which means you can have an appetizer that comes right away and then order a rice vermicelli bowl without getting bored of eating the same thing in a different package.
Beef pho (above) at Saigon Café will warm you up pho sure.
Also available as an appetizer is chicken salad ($7.95). Cabbage salad with cold, shredded chicken and a zippy fish sauce dressing is a Vietnamese staple. Crunchy and refreshing, it’s the perfect dish for a hot day—and it’s an extremely filling for a carb-free app. Sadly, Saigon’s version, made with limp green leaf lettuce and a muted dressing, deprives the dish of that wonderful crunch (and its filling nature). Maybe substituting lettuce for the cabbage and toning down the dressing makes the salad more familiar to some patrons, but the switch ruins it for anyone expecting a traditional Goi Ga. The soft wonton soup with shrimp ($10.95) offers a large bowl of mild broth dotted with three two-bite pork-filled wontons and three shrimp. At its best, Vietnamese wonton soup is the kind of comfort food that promises to cure whatever ails your body (or soul). And while this version is certainly innocuous enough to be delivered to a sick bed, it offers little else to attract a healthy diner. The broth conveys no particular flavor, while the gummy wrapping obscures the meat of the wontons. The shrimp in the bowl brought to our table were oddly dry. A close inspection seemed to indicate the shrimp had been given a film of batter and fried. Why add fried shrimp to a soup? Were they left over from some other dish? It was a mystery—and a disappointment. A stir-fry of lemongrass chicken ($13.95), from the “Special Vietnamese Style” section of the menu, is just
as spicy as the menu’s red lettering and warning sign promise. A good dose of heat can provoke a cooling sweat, but it should also deliver a balance of flavors in the process. This sauce was so heavy, salty and fiery that it destroyed the hoped-for aromatic pop of lemongrass. The thing that makes Vietnamese food such a joy is the amazing alchemy of it: just a few humble ingredients, like rice noodles and shrimp, transformed by their combination with fish sauce, lime juice and high-powered garnishes of fried shallots, ground peanuts and fresh herbs. With such a small pantry and such simple preparations, subpar ingredients and an uninspired hand can ruin the magic. Saigon Café is a convenient place to grab a quick, light meal, but on our visit it rarely delivers more than expected and more than often falls a little below the bar. In a town with only a few Vietnamese restaurants, perhaps Saigon doesn’t have to work very hard to compete. That’s too bad, because many Santa Feans have discriminating, well-traveled palates, and this place could thrill them with just a little more effort.

HIKING THE MARGARITA TRAIL
BY NATALIE BOV IS @TheLiquidMus e
Did you know that the margarita is one of the most popular mixed drinks, not only in Santa Fe but also the world? Historically classified as a daisy (or margarita, in Spanish), the refreshing combination of agave spirit, fresh lime juice, orange liqueur and a kiss of agave nectar resonates with people everywhere.
Around here, bartenders and home entertainers have their own special ways of mixing it up. Sampling margarita variations on local bar menus is even more fun now that the Santa Fe Margarita Trail launched—appropriately—on Cinco de Drinko, otherwise known as May 5. Social media burst with tantalizing tequila tipples as excited trailblazers sipped around town. Margarita Trail Passports are available for $3 at participating establishments and at Tourism Santa Fe Visitor Centers to those over 21 years of age. Each bar visit collects another passport stamp, resulting in prizes such as a commemorative T-shirt after five stamps and a tequila book by local aficionado Al Lucero after 20 stamps. However, passports can only receive two stamps per day to help ensure responsible sampling. Randy Randall, executive director of Tourism Santa Fe, argues that this guide is especially helpful to visitors. “The Margarita Trail complements our storied history and guides visitors to restaurants, bars, live music and award-winning regional cuisine,” Randall says. Mayor Javier Gonzales goes even further saying the promotion helps millions of visitors discover exceptional talent and hidden gems in our city while they create some very special memories.” So how do local businesses feel about it? According to Daniel Rivera, operations manager at Inn of the Anasazi, participants of the Margarita Trail become eager to try more of their margarita offerings. The bar added a designated tequila-sampling table last year, providing an opportunity for guests to explore their wide selection of tequila brands and housemade infusions. “The excitement we see on their faces when they are introduced to this experience is priceless,” Rivera says. I still have a long way to go to collect all the stamps. So far, some of my favorites include the yummy strawberry jalapeño margarita at Inn at Loretto (211 Old Santa Fe Trail, 988-5531) and the signature Smoked Sage Margarita at Secreto Lounge (210 Don Gaspar Ave., 983-5700). And, of course, watching the sunset from the The Bell Tower above La Fonda Hotel (100 E San Francisco St., 982-5511) is a must-do during summer. Bell Tower bartender Lorelee Cerletti remarks, “What better way to end the day than enjoying a Bellringer at the end of the Santa Fe Trail?” Bar professionals and cocktail enthusiasts can learn more about the deep roots of the margarita at the New Mexico Cocktails & Culture seminar “The Historic Journey from daisy to Margarita, the World’s Most Popular Cocktail.” This event I'm organizing takes place at Skylight on Saturday, June 4, at 1:30 pm. The interactive tasting is described as “a romp through history as the classic gin daisy slowly changed over time to become the tequilabased Margarita.” Tickets are available at NMCocktailCulture.com. Put on your hiking boots, Santa Fe, and start off down the trail. I hope to see you along the way. Salud!

yay! Here They Come to Save the Day Civil War is every bit as dumb and fun as we’d hoped by alex de vore @teamalex
Notoriously grumpy comics genius Alan Moore has referred to the recent influx of superhero films as a “cultural catastrophe.” Them’s fightin’ words, but at the rate we’re being inundated with these things, he ain’t that far off. Still, if you can detach yourself from any unfounded hopes that big-screen adaptations of caped crusader tales will be artistic or venerable examples of cinema, you’ll find plenty to enjoy (not counting Batman vs. Superman). These are summer blockbuster movies, popcorn-dropping stories meant to appeal to the kid
in us who can still recall reading these comics with a religious devotion, pretending to be these heroes or hoping beyond hope we might wake up one morning with super powers. Captain America: Civil War nails these ideals by not only being a killer action flick but acting as the intersection of so many loose Marvel Comics threads set forth by the onslaught of their other properties. In War, the fallout from the events of Avengers: Age of Ultron has the world on edge and wreaks havoc on international diplomacy. Toss in a mission gone awry in the opening minutes of the film, and people are scared of our heroes. Hell, why wouldn’t they be? As Secre-

pect, but War can be commended for actually delving into the moral ramifications of super-strong badasses who can blow up entire countries. Is a cadre of such proportions making the world a safer place, or are these heroes ignoring their collateral damage through the misguided belief that they are just and right? It’s a lot to think about, but it never becomes so heavy as to overshadow the exciting action sequences or legitimately funny inside jokes about the characters or comics culture itself. Marvel has done a wonderful job of slowly leading up to the joining of so many characters, and new heroes like Black Panther joining forces with less mainstream champs like Ant-Man (the ever-brilliant Paul Rudd) is thrilling. They even got Spider-Man right, finally, as young Tom Holland’s all-too-brief appearance as Spidey perfectly encapsulates the web-slinger’s youthful hubris and quip-a-minute personality. No, this is not Citizen Kane, but if that’s the kind of movie you’re stacking comic films against, you are thinking about the genre all wrong.

tary of State Thaddeus Ross (a perfectly smarmy William Hurt) points out to Cap and crew, they operate across sovereign borders with zero oversight, and the stuff that went down during their last outing in Sokovia left all kinds of people dead. World leaders want them to sign a document known as the Sokovia Accords, a treaty that will place restrictions on the team and have them report to a higher power. Tony Stark (the somehow always arrogant Robert Downey Jr.) is all for it, as he does battle with his own conscience over deaths they may have caused. Captain America (the usually pretty good but in this case kinda boring Chris Evans) refuses, however, stating something about how they need to do what they need to do. If that wasn’t bad enough, some jerk sets off a bomb at the UN meeting to ratify the treaty, thereby setting into motion a chain of events that, while complicated, is totally easy to follow. Surveillance footage would have us believe it was the dubious Winter Soldier (Captain America’s Hydra-hypnotized pal, Bucky, played here capably by Sebastian Stan), but Captain America isn’t buying it, so he takes off on his own to save the day, even though that’s illegal now. Plus there’s this mysterious dude Zemo running around, killing people and being nuts, and that’s no good, either. So yeah, it’s a superhero movie, and that comes with all the cute one-liners and preposterous action one might ex-

MILES AHEAD “never lets up in its unapologetic portrayl”
TALE OF TALES Tale of Tales consists of three well-trodden fairy tales from the works of Giambattista Basile, a writer and poet of the 16th and 17th century also credited with penning the first versions of Cinderella, Rapunzel and several other twice-told yarns. The best features of the film come from the starstudded cast. One of the stories opens with an odd but workable pairing of Salma Hayek (Desperado, From Dusk Till Dawn) as the queen and John C Reilly (Boogie Nights, Step Brothers) as the king of Longtrellis. His wife is unable to conceive, so king Reilly follows the instructions of an oracle and sacrifices himself in order for his queen to become instantly pregnant, sans sex. Some years later, the resulting son meets his almost twin, from another mother. The jealous queen attempts to separate the two, who are now like brothers, the futility of her attempts turning to grace when the soothsayer once again intervenes. Shirley Henderson (she played Moaning Myrtle in the Harry Potter flicks) and Hayley Carmichael (Call the Midwife) are featured in the second story, featuring Vincent Cassel (Black Swan) as a very randy king of yet another land. One day, from a distance, he overhears someone singing and instantly assumes that she is
a beautiful young maiden. She is brought to his quarters, whereupon he has his way with the slightly made-up dowdy crone; he awakens to find the truth and immediately has her cast out. Intervention comes from a mysterious woman, who offers the milk of human kindness, turning the old woman into a ravishing redhead whom the king espies, weds and beds. The third tale features Toby Jones (Captain America: The First Avenger) as another man of royalty, who has more than a passing interest in fleas. He first teaches a “real” flea to pull a tiny circus wagon, and things blossom from there, until his pet becomes the size of a large dog. Upon its death, he offers his daughter’s hand (she has been begging for a husband) to the man who can identify the hide of the nowskinned flea. An ogre is the one who does so, making the king’s daughter a captive, in this harsh “Beauty and the Beast”-type story. There is a lot of dark humor and enough debauchery in this picture to please most fans of phantasmal works. It features good direction and performances, a touch of the grotesque and splendid special effects. (Jeff Berg) The Screen, NR, 133 min.
FRANCOFONIA Aleksandr Sokurov’s newest film,
Francofonia, is a schizophrenic misadventure in filmmaking. The lackluster attempt at weaving its several elements into a cohesive union is a failed effort, marked by poorly mixed sound, inexplicable cameos by historical figures, poor costume design, unusually bad editing choices/camera work and a muddled narrative arc that makes less sense at the end than it does at the beginning. The film’s focus is on the Louvre (and “focus” is a term used loosely here) and the lives of two men, one a French civil servant and the other a German military officer during the nascent World War II, and their efforts, amid the conflict, to preserve the works of art that resided in the museum. In the scenes set in the past, there are blatant anachronisms, such as a WWII-era German soldier chasing down a WWII-era French civilian in a park in modern-day France, or French school children dressed in period clothing except for 21st-century tennis shoes, or grand vistas of what we can only assume is supposed to be 1940s France during the occupation, complete with Luftwaffe warplanes flying in the foreground … but in the background haze, you can see modern skyscrapers. Whether this is meant as an artistic juxtaposition or not is unclear, and it doesn’t matter. On the one hand, it’s a terrible error; on the other CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

MOVIES
ok Thank God for moist towelettes, in Tale of Tales. hand, it’s a ham-handed venture in the realm of artful criticism. There are moments when the director speaks to a random sea captain transporting precious art objects in a storm, but their communiqués are often cut off by the weather. Why we’re being shown this is never explained, nor is the relationship between the two. The director speaks to Napoleon or other historical figures, breaking the fourth wall constantly. However, there’s never a reason that’s satisfying enough to explain why Sokurov is doing this, other than to offer some sort of commentary on imperialism and its relationship to art that gets lost in translation. Overall, Francofonia is a pretentious and fractured conglomeration of a film that seems to take itself entirely too seriously and offers little in the way of historical enlightenment or worthwhile criticism. (Ben Kendall) CCA, NR, Subtitled, 88 min.
A HOLOGRAM FOR THE KING Tom Hanks is almost always at his best when he plays the everyman thrust into extraordinary circumstances. He’s America’s sweetheart, and while the man has proven his chops in dozens of memorable films over the years, he always excels in roles that utilize a simple and understated charm that almost allows us to feel like he’s a buddy of ours. In A Hologram for the King, Hanks plays Alan Clay, an aging businessman with a recent messy divorce under his belt, a strained relationship with his daughter and a poor decision that led to the accidental destruction of Schwinn bicycles still fresh in his mind. Clay travels to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to pitch holographic technology to the king himself and must navigate a baffling labyrinth of culture clash, gender issues and severe panic attacks that practically hobble him. Based on the 2013 Dave Eggers novel of the same name, Hologram seems on the surface to be simple to the point of lacking depth, and for those who might misinterpret subtlety or prefer their films to lay out stories plainly, that could definitely be a problem. Glaring issues such as the archaic role of women in modern Middle Eastern society or the systematic hollowing of the American economy at the hands of outsourcing are briefly explored, but anytime anything begins to approach too heavy or serious, we pop to a new scene wherein Hanks’ character comically falls off a chair or the differences in culture create silly little misunderstandings. This doesn’t mean that Clay’s struggles to be heard by the Saudis don’t

come with tense moments of confusion, rather that the film knows what it is and doesn’t strive for too deep. Hologram recalls the importance of story in cinema, an important accomplishment in our current filmic era of real-life people playing support roles to superheroes and CGI. It is a story of people, people we feel we might even know, and one of the more beautiful story experiences, medium irrelevant, in recent memory. (ADV) Violet Crown, R, 98 min.
THE JUNGLE BOOK One could easily make the argument that Jon Favreau’s (Iron Man) new live-action Jungle Book adaptation is another nail in the “Hollywood is out of fresh ideas” coffin, but there are enough new elements mixed in with nods to the animated Disney classic that it’s worth checking out, even if you aren’t being forced by your kids. We follow young Mowgli (newcomer Neel Sethi), a man-cub who was found in the jungle by the wise and just panther, Bagheera (Ben Kingsley), and deposited with a pack of wolves to be raised all wolf-like and to learn the ways of the jungle. Bagheera super-duper loves this kid and spends all sorts of time with him and his wolf-bros, running informal training drills so as to make the jungle a little safer. Life is good for Mowgli, but then a dry spell causes a lack of drinking water and thus the need for a jungle-wide truce; since there’s pretty much only one place where an animal can get a sip, they all ditch the predator/prey dynamic and get drinking. This is actually a real-life thing that happens for wild animals, so that’s cool, but it brings the totally angry Shere Khan (voiced to epically evil proportions by Idris Elba) to town, and he’s not havin’ it. By the end of The Jungle Book, it’s unclear if there was supposed to be some kind of message about environmentalism and how fire is powerful or something about nature versus nurture, but since the CGI is some of the best to date and there’s not a lot cooler than a bear fighting a tiger, it ultimately doesn’t matter. If you liked the animated version as a kid, are one of the few who has actually read the book (don’t lie, we know most of you didn’t) or want to take your kids someplace, you could do a lot worse than this. (ADV) Violet Crown, Regal 14, PG, 105 min.

MOVIES
barf Freedom and tyranny are two side of the same movie in, Francofonia than to travel back to 1949 New York and look up a guy named Miles Davis. Davis was a pioneer in bebop and jazz music, in case you didn’t know (and if you didn’t, shame on you). It seems like it would be a great fit for Hollyweird to make some sort of biopic of Davis and his exploits on the bleeding edge of music and popular culture. Somehow, it hasn’t happened until now. Cheadle takes the lead in front of the camera as well, playing Davis during his post-postmodern era in the late ‘70s, with wild hair and an even wilder drug-addicted disposition. Davis is on the edge of creative destruction, holed up in his Manhattan apartment, being hounded by record company executives and a morally bankrupt but somehow loveable freelance reporter, played by Ewan McGregor. Cheadle’s performance is remarkable. He keys into Davis’ raspy, curt, nearly unhinged personality.
The movie starts off with a car chase and a gunfight. You read that right. A lauded jazz musician, whose music you’re more likely to hear now in a fine dining restaurant than in the smoke-filled gin-joints of yesteryear, wildly fires a revolver out of the back of his luxury automobile—chased by an unknown assailant for a reason that’s not entirely clear at the outset. It’s worth noting that it’s not the only gunfight of the movie (or the only car chase, for that matter). Whether this event is true or not isn’t the point. Rather, Miles Ahead is an attempt to portray Davis as a gangster (those are Cheadle’s words) and a man of his time. Miles Ahead is worth taking the time to see. It never lets up in its unapologetic portrayal of an American icon, despite how uncomfortable he may make us feel at times. Cheadle makes Miles real. (BK) Violet Crown, R, 100 min.

MIND BODY SPIRIT
Rob Brezsny
Week of May 11th
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Russian writer Anton Chekhov was renowned for the crisp, succinct style of his short stories and plays. As he evolved, his pithiness grew. “I now have a mania for shortness,” he wrote. “Whatever I read—my own work, or other people’s—it all seems to me not short enough.” I propose that we make Chekhov your patron saint for a while. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you are in a phase when your personal power feeds on terse efficiency. You thrive on being vigorously concise and deftly focused and cheerfully devoted to the crux of every matter.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Once every year, it is healthy and wise to make an ultimate confession—to express everything you regret and bemoan in one cathartic swoop, and then be free of its subliminal nagging for another year. The coming days will be a perfect time to do this. For inspiration, read an excerpt from Jeanann Vernee’s “Genetics of Regret”: “I’m sorry I lied. Sorry I drew the picture of the dead cat. I’m sorry about the stolen tampons and the nest of mice in the stove. I’m sorry about the slashed window screens. I’m sorry it took 36 years to say this. Sorry that all I can do is worry what happens next. Sorry for the weevils and the dead grass. Sorry I vomited in the wash drain. Sorry I left. Sorry I came back. I’m sorry it comes like this. Flood and undertow.”
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) “Creativity is intelligence having fun.” Approximately 30,000 sites on the Internet attribute that quote to iconic genius Albert Einstein. But my research strongly suggests that he did not actually say that. Who did? It doesn’t matter. For the purposes of this horoscope, there are just two essential points to concentrate on. First, for the foreseeable future, your supreme law of life should be “creativity is intelligence having fun.” Second, it’s not enough to cavort and play and improvise, and it’s not enough to be discerning and shrewd and observant. Be all those things.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) According to the British podcast series “No Such Thing as a Fish,” there were only a few satisfying connubial relationships in late 18thcentury England. One publication at that time declared that of the country’s 872,564 married couples, just nine were truly happy. I wonder if the percentage is higher for modern twosomes. Whether it is or not, I have good GEMINI (May 21-June 20) In Western culture, the pea- news: My reading of the astrological omens suggests cock is a symbol of vanity. When we see the bird display that you Scorpios will have an unusually good chance of its stunning array of iridescent feathers, we might think cultivating vibrant intimacy in the coming weeks. Take advantage of this grace period, please! it’s lovely, but may also mutter, “What a show-off.” But other traditions have treated the peacock as a more SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) “Some days I feel like purely positive emblem: an embodiment of hard-won playing it smooth,” says a character in Raymond and triumphant radiance. In Tibetan Buddhist myths, for Chandler’s short story “Trouble Is My Business,” “and example, its glorious plumage is said to be derived from some days I feel like playing it like a waffle iron.” I susits transmutation of the poisons it absorbs when it pect that you Sagittarians will be in the latter phase until devours dangerous serpents. This version of the peacock at least May 24. It won’t be prime time for silky strateis your power animal for now, Gemini. Take full advangies and glossy gambits and velvety victories. You’ll be tage of your ability to convert noxious situations and better able to take advantage of fate’s fabulous farces if fractious emotions into beautiful assets. you’re geared up for edgy lessons and checkered challenges and intricate motifs. CANCER (June 21-July 22) “Clear moments are so short,” opines poet Adam Zagajewski. “There is much CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Author Rebecca Solnit more darkness. More ocean than terra firma. More says that when she pictures herself as she was at age 15, shadow than form.” Here’s what I have to say about “I see flames shooting up, see myself falling off the edge that: Even if it does indeed describe the course of ordiof the world, and am amazed I survived not the outside nary life for most people, it does not currently apply to world but the inside one.” Let that serve as an inspiration, you. On the contrary. You’re in a phase that will bring an Capricorn. Now is an excellent time for you to celebrate unusually high percentage of lucidity. The light shining the heroic, messy, improbable victories of your past. You from your eyes and the thoughts coalescing in your are ready and ripe to honor the crazy intelligence and brain will be extra pure and bright. In the world around dumb luck that guided you as you fought to overcome you, there may be occasional patches of chaos and con- seemingly insurmountable obstacles. You have a right fusion, but your luminosity will guide you through them. and a duty to congratulate yourself for the suffering you LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) “Dear Smart Operator: My name is Captain Jonathan Orances. I presently serve in the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan. I am asking for your help with the safekeeping of a trunk containing funds in the amount of $7.9 million, which I secured during our team’s raid of a poppy farmer in Kandahar Province. The plan is to ship this box to Luxembourg, and from there a diplomat will deliver it to your designated location. When I return home on leave, I will take possession of the trunk. You will be rewarded handsomely for your assistance. If you can be trusted, send me your details. Best regards, Captain Jonathan Orances.” You may receive a tempting but risky offer like this in the near future, Leo. I suggest you turn it down. If you do, I bet a somewhat less interesting but far less risky offer will come your way. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) “Some things need to be fixed, others to be left broken,” writes poet James Richardson. The coming weeks will be an ideal time for you to make final decisions about which are which in your own life. Are there relationships and dreams and structures that are either too damaged to salvage or undeserving of your hard labor? Consider the possibility that you will abandon them for good. Are there relationships and dreams and structures that are cracked, but possible to repair and worthy of your diligent love? Make a plan to revive or reinvent them.
have escaped and inner demons you have vanquished. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) “To regain patience, learn to love the sour, the bitter, the salty, the clear.” The poet James Richardson wrote that wry advice, and now I’m passing it on to you. Why now? Because if you enhance your appreciation for the sour, the bitter, the salty, and the clear, you will not only regain patience, but also generate unexpected opportunities. You will tonify your mood, beautify your attitude, and deepen your gravitas. So I hope you will invite and welcome the lumpy and the dappled, my dear. I hope you’ll seek out the tangy, the smoldering, the soggy, the spunky, the chirpy, the gritty, and an array of other experiences you may have previously kept at a distance. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) “A thousand half-loves must be forsaken to take one whole heart home.” That’s from a Coleman Barks’ translation of a poem by the 13th-century Islamic scholar and mystic known as Rumi. I regard this epigram as a key theme for you during the next 12 months. You will be invited to shed a host of wishy-washy wishes so as to become strong and smart enough to go in quest of a very few burning, churning yearnings. Are you ready to sacrifice the mediocre in service to the sublime? Homework: Whether or not we believe in gods, we all worship something. What idea, person, thing, or emotion do you bow down to?
