We read with admiration and no small satisfaction the Reporter’s “Prescribed Protection” article, and Sam Hitt’s and Fred King’s responses. If I understand Sam’s position correctly, he and Bill are actually in agreement about a desired future condition where wildfires can burn through the Santa Fe without the Forest Service trying to put them out. They disagree on whether this can be allowed to happen before thinning and prescribed fire treatments return forest conditions to something resembling what the occupants of the old pueblos maintained with natural and man-made fires, before the arrival of the Spanish settlers and their livestock, and before the Forest Service started putting out wildfires. Apparently Sam and Fred believe that the effects of prescribed fires are inherently bad, while the effects of naturally occurring fires are invariably good. It seems unlikely the majority of residents in and around Santa Fe concur with this view, after seeing the effects of the Cerro Grande Fire of 2000 on Los Alamos, or the disastrous flooding that followed the Las Conchas Fire in 2010; and after being able to compare these results with the thinning and prescribed fire treatments on the Santa Fe Watershed that Bill so ably designed and implemented.

... I am impressed by perfume artist Roxana Villa’s unique blends of herbs that have been literally distilled into unique perfumes. I am an amateur alchemist, although my efforts are minimal and more into observation, especially of the experiments of ancient alchemists. ... Copper has been used by alchemists for centuries, due to its unique properties: The metal tubing is perfectly equipped to handle both hot and cold elements, as well as being a durable material to extract a more purified distillation of whatever is being distilled, whether it be perfume, incense, alcohol or various medicinal compounds. Even the old-time hillbilly ‘moonshiners’ used copper stills to distill whiskey as a beverage. However, in my view, one of the most honored professions to use copper for distillation were the ancient apothecaries (which, in essence, are the fore-runners of pharmacists of today). Copper can withstand heat: needed for purification. Alchemy is real, sweet and beneficial.

Santa Fe helps the homeless care for their pets through the winter BY L E A H CA N TO R l e a h @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

he old adage, “home is where the heart is,” likely calls to mind frilly pillow cases your grandma bought at Hobby Lobby. But there’s absolutely nothing frilly about Jessie-Ray Romo, a burly, weather-beaten man with neck tattoos and piercings, his unwashed hair matted back into a ponytail. As he panhandles on at the corner of St. Francis Drive and Cerrillos Road with his 80-pound Rottweiler/pit bull mix Corazón, the two make an intimidating looking pair. Yet, this hard man melts instantly into shy smiles as he talks about his dog, who lovingly licks his face when she hears her name. In many cities, the streets can become a deathtrap for homeless people and their companion animals in winter when temperatures drop below freezing. Few shelters have the capacity to house pets, and food and veterinary care are often more than someone living on the streets can afford. But in Santa Fe, a network of organizations is quietly working behind the scenes to make sure homeless people and their pets get care. Karen Cain, the founder of the Street Homeless Animal Project, holds the network together. It’s been 21 years since Cain started passing out pet food and supplies as well as raising funds for veterinary care for homeless pets, and 10 years since her organization became an official 501(c)3. Cain says people like Romo keep her going.

“For many of these folks, the animal is the only family they have,” Cain says. “That’s why we do everything we possibly can to keep a person united with their companion—no matter what it takes.” Romo says he’s an Iraq war veteran who returned from deployment with PTSD. As his condition worsened, he and his wife divorced, he lost his job, and eventually ended up on the streets. Now, he says, Corazón is all he has. “I never thought I could love or trust anyone ever again after everything I’d seen and losing my family, but Corazón, she saved me,” he says, blushing. “I know it’s cheesy, but as long as I have Corazón, I’m home, and I wouldn’t trade her for anything in the world, not even a mailbox with my name on it and a pair of front door keys.” Romo, who traveled to Santa Fe from Colorado, says he often spends freezing nights in the open rather than risk getting separated from his dog at shelters in other cities that don’t accept pets.

They keep me calm. They are my emotional support. They are my family, and honestly, they’ve saved my life. -Deborah Douglass

Deborah Douglass has had official therapy dog Peanut, left, since before she lost her home. She adopted 19-year-old Honey Bear last year from a homeless man who could no longer care for her.

“This is a real concern in the winter,” says Joe Jordan-Berenis, the executive director of Pete’s Place, the only shelter in Santa Fe that offers a kennel for pets to stay overnight. “If people don’t want to seek shelter because of their pet, they could die.” Deborah Douglass lives at Pete’s nearly year-round with her two Chihuahuas, Peanut and Honey Bear. “I have bipolar disorder and sometimes I have suicidal tendencies,” she tells SFR. “These little guys, they give me a reason to get up every morning.” With the two little dogs happily snuggled into her chest, she says, “They keep me calm. They are my emotional support. They are my family, and honestly, they’ve saved my life.” Douglass has gone to Street Homeless Animal Project for supplies for her pups such as winter sweaters and leashes. Two other women at the shelter approach SFR to say the group has also helped them with veterinary expenses. Cain says when SHAP started, Smith’s was the only veterinary clinic willing to work with the homeless population.

Now, the vet is an official partner with the organization. Other nonprofits in the network include the Santa Fe Youth Shelters and Family Services. Of the 200-300 people served each month, Cain says most of Street Homeless Animal Project’s clients are actually young people. Part of the problem, perhaps, is that the youth cold weather shelter, which opens on Dec. 1, and the youth emergency shelter, do not take pets, says Shelly Felt, the executive director of the youth shelters program. “It is an issue that’s quite significant in housing young people,” she says, because just like homeless adults, many young people would rather risk it on the streets than abandon their companion animal. For those teetering on the edge of homelessness, such as individuals staying at the Esperanza Shelter for women and children fleeing abuse, the Santa Fe Animal Shelter also offers support and will house pets for up to 90 days. Cain says, “Helping people stay united with the animal members of their family is a community effort.”

Lay in Store Beth Gutelius: I would agree with that, broadly. We can’t know. Even if we can quantify with some assurance—which is questionable—how many tasks are susceptible to automation, we don’t know how many jobs will be created; we don’t know how jobs are going to change. I think part of her point is that instead of assuming we’re going to have massive job loss in 20 or 30 years, what’s going to happen in the next 10 years? Because that’s actionable. You can actually shape that … and then what happens 20 years from now gets built on whatever precedent you’ve set … and in the end, hopefully, it’s a better outcome for workers.

For warehouse employees facing automation, the future of work is an open question BY JULIA GOLDBERG @votergirl

he Oct. 21 installment of the New York Times’ “Op-Eds From the Future” series envisions Amazon founder Jeff Bezos unveiling to the media an alleged state-of-the-art, human-free robot-run fulfillment center in Phoenix, circa 2034. Except it still needs people, and relies on independent contractors that don’t receive benefits. That piece was plausible fiction. The actual impact of technology on warehouse workers remains to be seen. An extensive Oct. 22 academic report on the future of warehouse work examines the issue. Santa Fe resident Beth Gutelius, an associate director of the Center for Urban Economic Development at the University of Illinois at Chicago, co-authored the report and spoke with SFR about her findings. The interview has been edited for space and clarity.

now informing this wave of warehouse automation. Warehousing seems like an industry with some of the most vulnerable workers in the workforce. I think that’s definitely true. The stats are that 66% of frontline warehouse workers are workers of color, whereas 37% of the overall labor force is comprised of workers of color. So, for sure, it’s an industry that will see the disproportionate impacts of technology very clearly because it will affect those communities first. My big questions in general about technology and work are: What are the long-term physical and psychological impacts of these new technologies? Warehousing is a really interesting case for that because it is very manual work right now. So, there is real potential to improve the jobs if you take out some of the most grueling, arduous things. And yet it’s the choices people are making about how those technologies get implemented that counteract the opportunity to improve those jobs.

Does the warehouse sector serve as a bellwether for the larger workforce in these issues? UC Berkeley commissioned five reports on industries people say are going to be the most disrupted by automation and technology. Warehousing is one of those that gets trotted out as an industry that’s ripe for transformation and, in many ways, it is. In some ways, manufacturing is more illustrative because it has a much longer history of automation and technological change that I think is

SFR: Your report indicates that in the short to medium term, new technologies likely will not cause widespread job loss. That means Elizabeth Warren was right in the Oct. 15 Democratic debate when she said the threat of automation is overstated?

Your report talks about veering away from the idea of talking about the

future of work in a fated way. Why is this important? I think the idea of any outcome being inevitable shuts down our creativity and the broadness and boldness with which we think about how we might actually tackle a problem. This report tries to make the argument: How would it look different if workers actually had a real voice in how technologies play out in the workplace? You say that automation is making employees’ job harder by limiting their human interactions and by using technology to track their actions. Can you elaborate? Part of making a job more efficient is focusing the worker further and further on the task at hand, and how quickly they are accomplishing it. For example: They have these voice headsets constantly telling the worker the next place to go, how many items to grab, to scan, whether they have it right or not, and it really reduces that worker’s ability to interact with someone else. The second one, [and it’s] the most departure from what we’ve seen, is the ability for these technologies to track workers and monitor them and nudge them in ways that I say in the report is granular, scalable and relentless—a single manager couldn’t do that before.

Beth Gutelius

What was the impetus for your study? It was really the whole future of work conversation, which … has been laser focused on job loss and automation. UC Berkeley Center for Labor Research and Education and Working Partnerships, who commissioned this, were interested in a more nuanced look.

Is Amazon’s Mission Racer a real thing? It’s a real thing. Basically, it takes what is a very monotonous job and tries to spice it up. There are a few different interfaces: one is a Tetris, one is a race track. So your pick rate—the speed at which you’re grabbing the items and scanning them and putting them in the box—is translated on the race track to a little car that with each pick zooms forward, and you’re on a track on the interface with your coworkers, who are also driving cars. So gamification is supposed to—in its best light—help [make] these very monotonous jobs … more exciting. Some of the real problems come in when you’re pitting people against their co-workers; there is a real dark side to that. You mentioned you’re trying to shop less at Amazon? I … only recently decided to change my consumption patterns. I know about this industry. Most of us don’t. We don’t see these workers. We don’t see how our orders get fulfilled, and it’s like magic. It’s not magic: Someone’s body feels your click. It’s a very direct link, actually, to someone else’s hardship, so I’m trying to align my shopping with my values.

Violent and property crimes jumped in Santa Fe city limits last year; officials seek to reassure

B Y K AT H E R I N E L E W I N k a t h e r i n e @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

anta Fe’s violent crime rate shot up from 2017 to 2018, according to a recently released federal report, and property crimes in the city increased as well, though not as sharply. Spikes in both categories for New Mexico’s fourth-largest city run counter to crime decreases nationally during the same time period. The figures come from the FBI’s annual Uniform Crime Report, released Sept. 30. It analyzes self-reported 2018 data from thousands of law enforcement agencies around the country. New Mexico had the nation’s highest property crime rate and second-highest violent crime rate. In Albuquerque, property crimes dipped slightly and violent crimes increased at a slower rate for the state’s largest city, which has been beset by soaring crime in recent years. In Santa Fe, the violent crime rate for 2018 was 394 per 100,000 residents, the FBI report shows. The national average was 380. Violent crimes, which include homicide, rape, robbery and aggravated assault increased by 14%, with robberies leading the jump. Property crimes, including burglary, larceny and motor vehicle theft increased by 6%. Mayor Alan Webber and Police Chief Andrew Padilla, in separate interviews with SFR, acknowledge the increases, but say their administration uses a broader, deeper set of figures to track crime trends in the city. By their measurement, the upticks in crime last year aren’t as sharp. That’s because the city considers more crimes in its analysis and the FBI looks at a limited number of specific offenses. Over the last 10 years, however, both point out that, as Santa Fe’s population has grown, the number of crimes in the city has stayed relatively static—an assertion backed up by past FBI crime reports. “I think what we’re seeing is, for the most part, the community is relatively safe and there are crimes against property that are higher than they were as we deal with drug-related issues,” Webber tells SFR via telephone. “Breaking-and-entering or taking something out of somebody’s car,

Property and violent crime rates decreased once again nationally from 2017 to 2018. But crime in Santa Fe city went up in both categories, according to data it provided to the FBI. Santa Fe County saw increases in violent crime but decreases in property crime:

SAnta Fe City 2017-2018: Violent crime overall:

Aggravated assault:

Property crime overall:

Burglary:

+14% +6% Rape

-11% Robbery:

+58%

+7%

+12% Larceny theft:

+2%

Motor vehicle theft:

+3%

Santa Fe County 2017-2018: Violent crime overall: +45% Aggravated assault: +37% All property crimes: -12% Burglary: -15% Larceny theft: -9%

Over the last 10 years, as Santa Fe’s population has grown, the number of crimes in the city has stayed relatively static—an assertion backed up by past FBI crime reports.

it’s not the crime that is the cause, it’s the utilization that the crime is being put to.” Padilla says property crimes are the city’s main challenge “because of the poverty rate [and] opioid addiction, which fuels the larcenies and … people breaking into homes and vehicles so they can grab a quick item or two.” Until the courts find a better way to help people, particularly non-violent, first-time offenders, Padilla believes the system will continue to be a “revolving door.” “If the courts were able to have better funding for mental health issues, addiction, opioid or alcohol, whatever issues they may be having, they need to have realistic court-mandated training or counseling to help people get back on their feet,” he tells SFR. “Make sure they comply with a … treatment program. If they commit another crime, then they face the repercussions.” Padilla says that so far in 2019, the number of property crimes has stayed consistent. Using internal data and a decades-old strategy known as “hot-spot” policing, the chief has deployed officers and detectives more heavily near businesses and homes up and down Cerrillos Road, St. Michael’s Drive and Zafarano Road on the Southside in an effort to curb property crime. Webber comes to his SFR interview armed with 2017 to 2018 numbers from the department’s internal tracking system. They show a decrease of slightly less than 1% in overall crime in that time period. But the figures city police provided to the FBI for its annual report show a 7% overall increase in crime during that period. The increases in Santa Fe bucked the national trend of decreasing crime and, for

2017-2018, contributed to New Mexico’s four-year increase. Santa Fe had property crime increases while Albuquerque saw a 16% decrease. The state’s largest city had a 4% jump in violent crime in comparison to Santa Fe’s 14%. Santa Fe County also saw increases in violent crime: a 45% jump led by increases in aggravated assault. Property crimes in the county went down by 12% from 2017 to 2018, according to the FBI report. Juan Rios, spokesman for the Santa Fe County Sheriff Office, tells SFR that the numbers in the FBI database for the county are “skewed” and like “comparing apples to oranges” when looking at the sheriff’s internal data. “The UCR is not the primary data set that we use to analyze crimes in Santa Fe County,” Rios says. The FBI data is used mainly for federal grant purposes so law enforcement agencies can show their need for additional funding, says Klarissa Romero, UCR Program Coordinator for the state Department of Public Safety. “Some agencies don’t do it because they don’t have the manpower or they don’t have the time,” Romero says, adding that 118 of New Mexico’s 123 law enforcement agencies reported in 2018. “Some agencies in New Mexico, there’s only one sheriff or two sheriffs or the sheriff is doing the reporting because they don’t have a record clerk.” Romero says not reporting the data can create a vicious cycle in which departments don’t have enough funds for updated technology or a public information officer and also lack the resources to submit the necessary but voluntary data to the FBI for its annual report.

BY L E A H CA N TO R l e a h @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

anta Fe welcomes two new faces into City Hall this week in Santa Fe’s first fall City Council election. Unofficial vote totals reported late Tuesday indicate Micheal J Garcia is the new city councilor for District 2, and Jamie Cassutt-Sanchez will represent District 4. Garcia replaces Peter Ives and CassuttSanchez will take the seat occupied by Michael Harris. Neither incumbents sought new terms on the council. If it feels like city elections snuck up too soon this time around, that’s because the last time new members were voted onto the council was just a year and a half ago. Lawmakers decided to move the city election to November to increase voter turnout, but candidates expressed concerns early in the race that some voters might not be prepared for the early election, either. While Tuesday’s ballots also featured contests in the rural areas of the county, just over 9,000 people voted for unopposed Municipal Judge Virginia Vigil, the only citywide candidate, according to early unofficial results. That’s about 16% of the city’s roughly 58,850 registered voters. By Monday afternoon, reports indicated voters had cast 5,681 early voting ballots in the county. For comparison, 7,055 people voted early in the March 2018 municipal election. The total number of votes cast in 2018 was 20,670. This year’s contests felt sleepy for the most part—until journalists unearthed allegations of domestic violence against both men in the District 4 race. It’s not clear whether that paved the way for the convincing margin for Cassutt-Sanchez, but she collected enough votes to negate the need for ranked-choice voting. Voters trickled in and out of polling places all day as the candidates waited for the results. The county fairgrounds on Rodeo Road seemed to be among the busiest polling stations, with a line of cars entering and leaving the parking lot from morning till late afternoon. It was also the top spot for council candidates to set up camp chairs and wave to voters in the hopes of making one final impression on those who still might be questioning how to cast their ballots. District 4 candidate Xavier Anderson sat outside his truck under a sun umbrella wearing a cap with the firefighter union logo for most of the day. The

“in service” at Cesar Chavez Elementary School and then closed the door without further comment. Abbott could not be reached. Changing the date of the election to November seems to have caught everyone—including potential candidates—off guard this year. For weeks, Garcia was the only candidate to join the race for the open seat in District 2, but a second candidate, Alysia Abbott, jumped in at the last minute, scrambling to get enough qualifying signatures before the deadline. The District 4 race had more momentum with three candidates— Cassutt-Sanchez, Anderson and Scargall—contending for another open seat. The race turned dark last month after reporters learned that Scargall’s wife had called police about a domestic dispute in September, which was followed up by a domestic violence “welfare check.” The police left without making any arrests. Older but more troubling allegations emerged, too. SFR discovered records of two previous domestic violence allegations filed against Scargall by his wife. In one instance in which she applied for a domestic violence order of protection, Scargall’s wife accused him of pushing her around so roughly that she was left with bruises all over her body. A search of Anderson’s record also turned up one domestic violence allegation filed by his now ex-wife, who accused him of stalking during their divorce nearly a decade ago. Cassutt-Sanchez was the only

union had endorsed him in the race. Cassutt-Sanchez and District 2 candidate Michael Garcia also showed up for several hours in the afternoon. District 4 candidate Gregory Scargall and District 2 candidate Alysia Lori Abbott weren’t as visible. When SFR arrived at the Scargall’s house late in the afternoon before the polls closed, the candidate, a fourth grade teacher, said he spent the day working

candidate for the district with a clean record. With her victory Tuesday night, Santa Fe’s City Council—already with a female majority—now tips five-to-three women over men. City councilors Renee Villarreal, District 1, and Chris Rivera, District 3, ran unopposed for reelection. The date of the election was not the only change this year. Usually city staff is in charge of counting the votes and announcing the results, but this year the county clerk’s office took over.

DISTRICT 4’S NEWCOMER The District 4 contest would have been just the second election featuring rankedchoice voting, but since Cassutt-Sanchez got more than half the “first place” votes, that method of counting did not come into play. Of 3,343 votes reported at presstime, 56.9% were in her favor. Scargall and Anderson were neck and neck with 21% each. Cassutt-Sanchez recently returned to her hometown after starting her family, and she started her first effort at political office with a lot of general ideas and a less-than-intimate knowledge of the area she was vying to represent. Her early refrain: “I don’t know the answer to that, but I’ll find out.” In the months since, she’s proven to voters that she’s taken this commitment seriously, and it’s one of the things constituent Mary Anne Gabson likes best about her.

Jamie Cassutt-Sanchez and her son, Oliver, sit outside the Santa Fe County Fairgrounds on Tuesday afternoon to woo voters.

For SPFS: Carrillo loses seat to Gonzales; Boses defeats Triolo

Santa Fe Public Schools and the governing board of the Santa Fe Community College got new members in Tuesday’s election in Santa Fe County. According to unofficial results posted by the secretary of state, Santa Fe Public Schools will see two new members. Carmen Linda Gonzales ousted longtime member Steven Carrillo with 64% of votes for SFPS position 1, marking Carrillo’s exit after holding the seat for eight years. Sarah Koch Boses handily defeated John L Triolo with 67.8% of votes for position 2, held by Maureen Cashmon since 2015. The pair joins the five-member board at a tense time, as it’s scheduled Wednesday night—before the new members take office—to discuss closure of three elementary schools. Member Rudy Garcia faced no opposition for the position 4 seat; and members Kate Noble and Lorraine Price weren’t up this cycle. Meanwhile, the Santa Fe Community College governing board saw five candidates run for two positions. More than 13,000 people cast votes in the races. Pier Quintana appeared at presstime to have squeaked past Miguel Acosta with 39.9% of votes compared to Acosta’s 35.6%; candidate David WDannenberg held 25.4% of votes for the member 5 position. For member 3, Jody M Pugh led in unofficial results with 55% of the vote, compared to 45% for Ruth H Howes. (Julie Ann Grimm)

Welcome to the school and community college boards

“It’s refreshing to have someone who admits their blind-spots honestly and is always working to evolve their perspective. I think women are better at that, and it’s a leadership skill that Jamie has proved she has,” Gabson told SFR at the polls. Cassutt-Sanchez says she knocked on over 2,000 doors over the course of the race and made over 1,000 phone calls to constituents. “Going door to door is exhausting, but I think it’s been my favorite part of the race,” Sanchez tells SFR on Tuesday. “Everybody has such a different viewpoint that you really will not know unless you take the time to sit down and listen.” For those who encountered her on the campaign trail, meeting her in person made all the difference. Denise Rappmund, who met Cassutt-Sanchez a few months ago, says she was so impressed that she signed up to help out with the campaign. “She’s young and more like me and I felt like she really understood not just what’s facing young families in town, but with her background in public health, she understands what people in general are facing,” Rappmund told SFR. Cassutt-Sanchez said after learning about the domestic violence allegations against her opponents: “I don’t want to win by default … I want to win because my ideas resonate with the community.” Late Tuesday, Cassutt-Sanchez says she felt like this goal was achieved. “From talking to the people who were reaching out to me, they were saying that they really liked what I was talking about,” she says. “That they were really excited to have somebody that cared about the health and wellbeing of the community.” Cassutt-Sanchez says her first priority in office will be to pursue the “Health Alliance Committee” that she has talked about since the beginning of the campaign. The initiative would bring together numerous government and advocacy agencies to tackle myriad city problems through the lens of community health. For voter Jared Gunn, it was indeed her ideas and not her criminal record that swayed his vote. Gunn retired from his work as a chemistry teacher at Santa Fe High in 2008, and is president of the New Mexico Book Association. He says that while he hasn’t experienced homelessness, there are people in his life who have,

and this has put housing at the top of his list. “We have some problems here with homelessness and affordable housing and I think she would be most amenable to dealing with it,” Gunn tells SFR. “I also really like where she stands on other health issues, and she’s female; I always like to vote for women.” One practical thing CassuttSanchez wants to start right away is offering childcare at City Council Meetings. She also wants to pass regulations requiring that all workers receive paid sick leave, an issue that quickly sprang to the forefront of the council race after Bernalillo County passed a similar ordinance in October. DISTRICT 2 LANDSLIDE Michael Garcia’s enthusiastic emphasis on community involvement may have won him the race. Through every round of debates and forums, Garcia hammered home his message: The community needs a stronger voice in city government, and he’s the guy to deliver. Standing outside the Santa Fe County Fair Building on Rodeo Tuesday afternoon, he echoed the point again. As he waves to voters, Garcia tells SFR that he could barely sleep the night before the polls opened, and woke up Tuesday “feeling like a kid on Christmas morning.” “If I win, I can’t wait to make the community feel like City Hall is theirs,” he says. “That’s always going to be my priority—figuring out how to involve the community in all aspects of city government.” At the beginning of the race, Garcia’s statements about how exactly he plans to do so were fairly vague. However, as the weeks went by he’s included specifics such as

hosting quarterly town halls and a pitch to move City Hall to the Midtown campus to more closely reflect the demographic center of the city and make the functions of local government more transparent and accessible to everyone, not just those living and working downtown. He’s also placed an emphasis on sustainability and environmentally responsible development policies. His messaging worked. Unofficial results reported by the Secretary of State’s office show that Garcia won with 67% of the 3,486 votes cast in that district. “I loved the idea that the city council has the opportunity to get more diversity,” says District 2 constituent Mary Ann Shaening about her choice to vote for Garcia. She says she thinks his most appealing stance is all about housing. “That’s what so many of us are really most concerned about, I also think he will work collaboratively with others and that’s something people value,” says Shaening. Standing outside of the Santa Fe County Fair Building, voter Tony Lopez tells SFR he voted for Garcia because “he’s well educated, he cares for his community and has done lots for his community already.” “Besides,” says Lopez, “affordable housing needs to be addressed.” Garcia celebrated his win by first thanking his wife, his family, and “the community for believing in me.” “I think it reaffirms that we as a community need to really ensure that voters’ real community voice is not only taken into consideration, but real action [is] taken … and addressed in our city governance …” Garcia tells SFR before leaving the county building with his wife.

SAFE SPACE In this, the year 2019, it’s just so effing passé to sit around worrying about gender and how the peoples of the world express their identities. A shift has come and is evolving, and if you don’t want to get left on the ash heap of history, you’ll consider how truly unimportant gender norms and their absurd societal implications can be. Start ’em young at the Gender Creative Playgroup at the Southside branch of the Santa Fe Public Library.

Worldly Art A post-impressionist master gets his day in the sun Lesser-known German artist and filmmaker Hans Paap (1890-1967) followed in the post-impressionist footsteps of painters like Van Gogh and Gauguin, but with a more exaggerated and distorted style. “Although we can only speculate, there are few notable life experiences that influenced Paap’s work,” says Director of Nedra Matteucci Galleries Dustin Belyeu. “The death of his first wife in Argentina … led to Paap’s focus on portraiture and landscape painting. It was when he arrived to Taos in the 1920s, where he was handed endless subject matter that pertained to the people, culture and landscape of the town.” Paap arrived in the US after spending time in South America, and he toured extensively across the Southwestern US, painting the people of the territories, particularly Taos Pueblo’s inhabitants and other neighboring Native Americans. Belyeu says Paap found the allure of Taos’ mythologized art colony irresistible. And though he never found the same level of notoriety as some of his contemporaries, he did carve out his own niche. “While Paap’s work falls under two primary genres—landscapes and portraiture—[his] style is influenced by late impressionism,” Belyeu tells SFR. “When he arrived in the states around 1928, he

combined a naturalistic approach with backgrounds of color fields and abstract patterns.” Paap’s work intimates his enjoyment of plein air sessions and the act of giving the world around him his own unique twist. Imagery is recognizable, though Paap’s abstractions provide a clearer idea of how he specifically observed the land and people around him. The upcoming Matteucci exhibit provides a chance to see why Belyeu believes he remains a “largely overlooked” artist. “Viewers can connect to the bygone era of nearly 100 years ago, when the region’s artists and creatives were coalescing into a force that would change the course of American art history,” Belyeu says. It’s heartening that Paap will finally receive some local recognition for his methods and body of work. His material shows excitement and curiosity for his second home, even if that recognition comes so long after his death. (Cade Guerrero)

Dark Magick Chelsea Wolfe: The queen of all things dark on transformation and discovering femininity out the album, beginning with urgency on “The Mother Road,” a song Wolfe says she wrote the chorus to while “lying on a concrete floor backstage” after playing two shows in one day. It serves as the album’s thesis, a track that begins as a folk ballad and ends in an emotional surge. She says the song “felt like it was the thing that connected the album together.” “Women know what it means to endure,” she sings as the song reaches crescendo. A lesser talent might make those words sound cloying or trite, but in Wolfe’s capable hands, they are a matter of fact and truth; “bloom and eclipse them, wake

JOHN CRAWFORD

helsea Wolfe is a once-in-ageneration artist—a musician as prolific as she is restless, with an evolving discography spanning metal, industrial and folk, often on the same record. Her voice is unmistakable, and no matter where her attention might turn sonically, each song is undoubtedly her own. It is ritual, drenched in otherworldly imagery and witchcraft. However, there’s something special about her most recent effort, Birth of Violence, that almost intones a cosmic realignment of the ritual itself. Wolfe acknowledges this change to SFR over Skype. “This album feels like a shift to me,” she says. “I feel like it’s the beginning of this healing process, for lack of better words.” Said healing process has yielded an album laser-focused in sound, lyrics and production. Acoustic at its core, Violence shares more in common with the tonality of Wolfe’s 2012 acoustic release Unknown Rooms than it does with her last LP, the deeply metal Hiss Spun. Her vocals, normally drenched in ethereal chamber reverbs and delay, are now direct, prominent and present in ways unheard on previous outings. “I wanted the vocal production to be very upfront and honest,” Wolfe explains. “A lot of the lyrics were inspired just by navigating this world as a woman, and being more in touch with my feminine side.” Themes of femininity, transformation and empowerment are replete through-

up and transform,” the song concludes. The album might be about transformation and discovery, but at its core, it’s also an album of female empowerment. This isn’t exactly a new concept. “Girl power” music is on display in nearly every corner of the industry, but its femininity often becomes a finely polished commodity test-marketed, photoshopped and sold to us as an ideal. Said ideal is ever-changing and can be out of reach for most of us who identify as women. It leaves us damaged and out of touch with ourselves—and let’s not forget how many women don’t see this ideal having resonance inside of who they are. Because of this, getting in touch with our femininity can feel like a Sisyphean task, and the women in music who package such tropes do so because it’s one of the few ways we can assert any version of our power in a male-dominated space. But in the last decade or so, there has been an insurgence of bands created and fronted by women whose empower-

ment doesn’t directly correlate to market share; women who are creating dark, confrontational music. Such themes of empowerment and discovery run central on Violence. Wolfe tells SFR she doesn’t know if she can speak for the movement itself, but, she says, “I do think that more and more women artists—and people in general— are rising up, wanting to be themselves, and not having to fit into some certain mold of femininity. I know for myself, I used to feel very androgynous and inbetween. I feel like that might have sometimes been a protective mechanism, to help me navigate this world that was very male dominated. I was protecting myself, but I was also being myself.” There’s a confessional tone to this statement. And when recognizing that the scope of Wolfe’s career has been one that aligns her creative output with genres that are almost exclusively the purview of masculinity, to write something so distinctly feminine in perspective and— perhaps more importantly—feminine on its own terms, is an act of defiance, reclamation and rebellion. “Something in my brain and art changed a little bit. I wanted to connect to this more feminine side,” Wolfe explains of entering her 30s, adding that getting into witchcraft “kind of naturally led me that way, so I started putting more and more of that into my music.” Thus, Birth of Violence is the type of album someone can only create when they have been both cudgel and flower. Wrapped in healing circles and deep magics, Wolfe has outdone herself in every way. When her live show comes to Meow Wolf, she’ll present it intimately, acoustic and vulnerable, with a performance “created to be a protective base.”

Flip ut New Mexico Pinball carries on the tradition BY ALEX DE V0RE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

n the post-prohibition America of the 1920s, ostensibly pious politicians around the country set their sights on what they believed to be the next most pressing vice: gambling. Of particular interest were coin-operated slot machines and their ilk; by 1942, oddly, officials rolled up pinball machines with slots and banned the games for public use in New York City. Other cities and states soon followed suit. It was still legal to own the machines for private use, however, and companies like Stern Pinball still quietly manufactured them, but the public came shockingly close to losing the pastime forever. Fast forward to 1976 and one Roger Sharpe, a celebrated pinball player considered the best of his time and a representative for the Music and Amusement Association, an organization attempting to overturn the ban. It’s a long story, but Sharpe was tasked with proving how the game required skill and focus by playing before a panel of New York City councilors. He wowed them all with one shot, and they lifted the ban. “Sharpe went into a courtroom and … he’s the guy who saved pinball,” says Nick Schademann of New Mexico Pinball. “[Pinball machines] were outlawed because they were thought to be gambling, and Sharpe proved they were not a game of luck, but of skill. It’s interesting to think that if he would’ve missed that shot, I wouldn’t be playing pinball today.” Schademann and his partner Jenny Noack head New Mexico Pinball, a group

dedicated to the playing, appreciation and discussion of pinball. The pair hosts free meetup events at The Alley (153 Paseo de Peralta, 557-6789) every Wednesday evening at 6 pm and, in just two months, have grown the group to nearly 20 members. It’s a scene that spans the globe in the form of competitions, appreciation organizations, modders, hangers-on and beyond. As far as Santa Fe goes, we can think of Schademann and Noack as members of a semi-secret nerd club that hosts chapters everywhere and, when possible, sojourns to nearby machines and meetups in Albuquerque. Speaking of which, Albuquerque’s pinball scene and venues like 505 Pinball do make Santa Fe’s offerings look slim. The Alley is the only public space with consistently operational machines. For Schademann and Noack— who have a Walking Dead machine at home anyway—it’s almost more about the social aspects than playing the game. Growing up in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Schademann says discovering the pinball scene as a youth was like finally finding his people. “There was a community around it,” he tells SFR. “Those people taught me how to play and became some of my closest friends.” Noack traces her love back to a time when the couple lived in Colorado. “I had never encountered pinball before we moved

there, but the community is very robust and welcoming,” she tells SFR. “I’m there for the community and meeting people. I’m not a single, I’m not out at bars meeting people, it’s a good avenue for [making friends].” But, as Schademann points out, there are any number of groups dedicated to making friends and playing games. What sets pinball apart? “I enjoy the artwork, the sounds and how the machines work,” he says. “It’s like a puzzle to me; the new machines have pages and pages of code, it’s a big branching tree. When I found out it was more than hitting a flipper, it clicked.” The mantra would be “When I Do This/ This Happens.” In other words, every move

A&C

made during the course of a game causes a planned reaction. Techniques vary, including the flipper method and so-called nudging (literally nudging the machine to move the ball or buy a moment to think) to understanding the layout and rules of each specific machine. The Alley has five so far, one of which is Jurassic Park-themed, a new addition that Schademann says Alley management installed after they noticed New Mexico Pinball was drawing fans. For others, it’s as simple as having an excuse to get out of the house. Local comics creator Alec Longstreth, for example, has a long-held affinity for the game, and New Mexico Pinball gives him an outlet, plus a reason to be social. “One of the things that’s great about pinball is that it’s in real life,” Longstreth says. “You’ve gotta actually go out and talk to someone. You get a beer, you talk to people while someone else is playing.” Longstreth’s love of the game stretches way back. In a previous life in California’s Bay Area, he frequented the Pacific Pinball Museum in Alameda and collaborated on a pinball-themed zine called Drop Target with his fellow artist Jon Chad. These days he’s got two young kids and can’t get out as often, but a regular meetup of like-minded pinball fans scratches the itch. “There’s something about playing with other people,” he says. “Going out, playing a game you don’t know very well and getting better at it—I was very excited when The Alley said they’d have pinball.” Schademann and Noack, meanwhile, are adamant that all are welcome. The New Mexico Pinball group, they say, is meant to be a safe space. “If you want to come and play pinball, there’s no requirement,” Schademann says. “We’ve had a 4-year-old, we’ve had an 80-year-old. The more people who get involved, the better. Any way I can do that …” He trails off, the siren call of the machine perhaps too alluring to ignore any longer.

THE CALENDAR with Mickey Dolan

LORA CUNNINGHAM

Chicago-born, Santa Fe-raised Mickey Dolan is an actor on the New Mexicofilmed Netflix TV series Daybreak, a zombie thriller following a cast of high school misfits as they try to survive endless waves of ghoulies. Dolan has been cast in smaller roles in films like Sicario 2 and shows like Get Shorty, but with his first major role as Gary the golf jock, Dolan spends time tormenting the protagonist as his clan scours the infested wasteland. (Cade Guerrero) What does the growing film industry mean for New Mexico? Obviously people have heard of Netflix buying Albuquerque Studios out, as well as NBC Universal building a studio in Albuquerque. I feel like ever since Breaking Bad, the film industry has kind of boomed for tourism, bringing in more films, and just created a positive trend for New Mexico. Netflix is investing heavily in the next 10 years into New Mexico film. I think it’s going to be very positive, because it puts New Mexico on the map, and not only the state, but actors and filmmakers too. It’s great for everybody. Has this lead to more success in your career living in Santa Fe? Daybreak is my first big role, so I’m excited to see where this leads my career as an actor. It’s amazing seeing the support that I’m receiving from all around the world—places like Argentina and Brazil messaging me on how they laughed and loved my scenes. It’s pretty cool, and I hope it leads to more stuff. Does the New Mexico landscape provide a fitting atmosphere for the show Daybreak? Yeah. I think New Mexico really complimented the show, because it’s a desolated, dry wasteland. It’s the perfect place for Daybreak to be, and it was really fun filming it, being in New Mexico, and not having to travel far from home and getting to do what I love. It’s kind of perfect.

Puerto Peñasco Restaurant It’s Friday night, smack dab in the middle of sweltering tourism season and we don’t have a reservation. We also don’t have to fight for parking, and we don’t have to wait at all to get a table in the cool dining room at Puerto Peñasco. What we find then is a vast menu with every single item written in Spanish and English and friendly, non-obtrusive but extremely courteous waitstaff. Chips and salsa are joined by avocado creme as we pore over the choices. Welcome to the restaurant that Ruben Rodriguez opened and named after a memorable family vacation 13 years ago. We’re salivating as two plates of sizzling fajitas go by and land on another table, but we have zero order regret from the filete creme chipotle ($11.95), a sizeable portion of white fish swimming in a thick creamsicle-colored sauce with enough jalapeño kick to rate “extra spicy” on the menu. Wellcooked rice that comes along was a given, but a small pile of french fries was a surprise addition to the entree—and those steaming taters longed to be dipped in the sauce. A mango agave wine margarita with a chile rim ($5.25) helped chill it down to a tolerable lip-burning level. For dessert, we share a single flan ($4.25) that is generously drenched in caramel sauce and so sweet with condensed milk and eggs that it disappears quickly. Not us. We’ll be back. (Julie Ann Grimm)

Trattoria a Mano Fresh pasta is totally having its moment. Anyone with a penchant for collecting kitchen gadgets probably has at least one pasta machine on their counter right now and two others waiting in their Amazon cart. But when the novelty of the toy wears off, you’ll still be in love with pasta a mano—handmade—and Trattoria a Mano has just what you need. In the spring and summer, the menu shifts to the south of Italy, featuring more seafood, but the winter menu is dedicated to northern Italian cuisine. Traditionally, pasta is just the second course, so consider starting with a light caprese salad ($15) featuring the mildest, sweetest burrata, tart tomatoes and balsamic vinegar pearls. For something richer, the grilled octopus ($16) comes with a satisfying char and a Nduja sausage sauce. Each pasta dish features a unique type carefully paired with toppings to complement the texture. The orecchiette al sugo ($15/$26), Italian for “little ears with sauce,” demonstrates the restaurant’s mastery of the craft, and though we would have tried all the pastas, we wanted to save room for a main course: namely, grilled branzino ($30) served with crispy, briney Sicilian-style cauliflowers and salsa verde. We’re definitely looking forward to going back when it’s cold out and digging into some of the best pasta in town. (Cole Rehbein)

Rowley Farmhouse Ales There’s no farmhouse at Rowley, but it is hidden back far enough off of Cerrillos to be country quiet. The farmhouse here refers to Rowley’s award-winning beers, that is, farmhouse ales. Many different styles fit under that moniker, but the beers Rowley is known for tend to be perfect for drinking on a farm: funky, earthy, tart and dry. Easy drinking is made easier by the laid-back yet well-curated menu of rustic pub food from chef Jeffrey Kaplan. There are the comfort foods that sizzle in a castiron pan, such as a three-cheese (mozzarella, parmesan and blue) mac and cheese ($11), and more refined options highlighting nature’s bounty including a farmers market risotto ($14) studded with local, in-season vegetables. Sandwiches and burgers require steady hands and many napkins. The wild Gulf shrimp po’ boy ($17) overflows with salty, sweet, flash-fried shrimp in a dripping current of spicy remoulade. Rowley’s kitchen achieves the impossible with its Impossible burger ($14), coaxing crunchy, charred edges out of a product notoriously difficult to cook correctly. And no rustic meal would be complete without a sweet finish, the kind you might find cooling on a farmhouse window sill. Rowley doesn’t disappoint, offering a seasonal fruit crumble ($7) (in summer, tart cherries paired with sweet peaches) and a hearty Challah bread pudding ($6). Though many come for the beer—which won multiple awards at this year’s Great American Beer Festival—it’s the food they stay for.

Drink it Up Feel good tequila BY ZIBBY WILDER a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

love Mexico. I also love its national (according to me) nectar—tequila. I had been planning on educating myself a bit more on this spirited spirit when I got an invitation to a secret supper event featuring … tequila. It sounded way more fun than drinking alone, so I accepted. All I knew was the supper was one of a sold-out series sponsored by Roca Patrón tequila, an artisanal tahona-made tequila, and that its proceeds would benefit the Savory Institute, a Colorado-based organization working on regeneration of the world’s grasslands to address desertification, climate change and food and water insecurity. I love it when I can feel good about drinking, so one recent Saturday, I joined about 50 strangers aboard a bus to somewhere. “Somewhere” ended up being a picturesque spot atop a hill in Cerrillos, and as I milled through the handsome crowd, an appetizer of rich huitlacoche in one hand, a delicate tequila and watermelon concoction in the other, I finally spotted something familiar—the signature hat of Fernando Olea. Olea, chef and partner at Sazon and co-owner of Sasella, was about to serve up a mind-blowing sixcourse menu cooked over nothing more than a roaring campfire. What was more, each course came paired with a gorgeous tequila-based cocktail. This is no easy feat, so I searched out the responsible party and was directed to Carla Gilfillan, a Santa Fe craft mixologist who has worked

with Hotel La Fonda and Albuquerque’s Heritage Hotels, among others. Guillifan told me she has visited many of Mexico’s tequila distilleries, learning not only about the nuances of the spirit, but gaining admiration for the plant it is made from and the communities that farm it. “It’s kind of like the same way I feel about my community—I can tell you about it all day, but you have to be there to feel it,” she says. “When I started visiting Jalisco distilleries, their passion was infectious and it infected me. I’ve met a lot of people who distill, but it’s just a different feeling I get from agave growers,” explains Guillifan. “Tequila is my favorite spirit because I feel like it has a heart and a soul.” Agave has long been revered in Mexico. The Aztecs even had a goddess of agave, Mayahuel, who was also called the “woman of the 400 breasts” in reference to pulque, the milky juice naturally fermented in the heart of agave. The process of transforming agave into tequila now falls to the 130+ tequila distilleries currently operating in Mexico. Similar to Champagne, tequila has an appellation of origin with only five Mexican states certified to produce it; Jalisco is the only state designated in its entirety. It begins with the planting and tending of blue agave, from which tequila is exclusively made. After six to 10 Corralejo, years, the heart of Blanco the plant (the piña) is harvested. The piñas are cooked to ready their sugars for fermentation, then crushed to extract their juices. Fermentation begins and after seven to 12 days bubbling away in large tanks, the juice moves to

the distillation process. Most tequilas are distilled twice, the second resulting in the tequila known as silver or blanco. Some of this liquid is then put into oak barrels and aged: reposados for two to 12 months, añejos between one and three years and extra añejos for over three years. It’s a fascinating spirit, tequila, but when it comes down to it, what I really need to know is how to buy it. How do you know what’s good or what’s not? Thankfully, Nick Sherwood of Susan’s Fine Wine & Spirits (1005 S St. Francis Drive, Ste. 101, 984-1582) has some ideas. Sherwood recommends being clear on how you’re planning to use the tequila. For instance, if you’re looking to make a margarita, you’ll likely want to go with a blanco. “A good middle ground for margaritas are blancos from Corralejo ($42.99) or Gran Centenario ($30.99),” he says.

Gran Centenario, reposado

ArteNOM, 1146

Fortaleza, reposado

FOOD

“These have straightforward, fresh agave flavors that won’t compete with the other ingredients of the drink.” If you’re looking to get crafty and mix up something of your own, Sherwood likes Fortaleza reposado ($57.99), “a great tequila house that straddles the line between big producer and smaller, more rustic, craft tequila.” Another of Sherwood’s favorites is Chamucos reposado ($53.99), “a quality, small batch, craft tequila,” says Sherwood. Many will recognize this brand by its label, which features little black devil-like figures that look curiously similar to me on tequila. Sherwood also speaks highly of ArteNOM ($57.99-$84.99), a co-op that distributes selections distinctive of their regions, similar to wine and terroir. According to the NOM (the law that governs tequila production in Mexico), each distillery is assigned an ID number and these are the labels for ArteNOM’s selections. For example, No. 1146 comes from master distiller Enrique Fonseca. His unconventional story of necessity is a good one to Google, but the sum of it is that he is legendary for creating a “new” tequila—the extra añejo. “Extra is too much for margaritas or for mixing in most drinks as it’s almost like a whiskey,” explains Sherwood. Fonseca’s premium extra añejos, bottled under the name Fuenteseca, range from $187.99 for the seven-year to $979.99 for the 21-year, and so are likely best enjoyed simply Chamucos, reposado as slow sips with your best friend—namely, me. Note: If you want to do a tequila tasting, beyond the average flight, the Inn of the Anasazi restaurant offers them starting at $35 per person.

MOVIES Pain and Glory Review Almodóvar’s newest revels in the past and future

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

+ THE SMALL BUT CLEVER TWIST; BANDERAS

- BORDERS ON

hen it comes to a filmmaker like Pedro Almodóvar—a director who inserts bits and pieces of himself into practically everything he does—it can be hard to tell what’s real, what’s not and what might just be fantasy. In Pain & Glory, Almodóvar blurs the lines further, telling the story of a oncelauded writer/director named Salvador (Antonio Banderas) who, on the cusp of senior citizenship, starts to feel wistful and hopes to come to terms with the events of his life thus far. Between chronic pain, depression and haunting memories of his past, Salvador has chosen to leave writing and filmmaking behind. This comes with a sense of meaninglessness, but when a small theater asks him to present his most famous work as part of a film festival, Salvador sets out to make peace with its lead Alberto (Asier Etxeandia), a man he hasn’t spoken with since the film premiered three decades earlier.

THE HEAVY HANDED NOW AND THEN

Alberto introduces Salvador to heroin which, for a time, calms his pain and anxieties. But when the pair collaborates once more on a one-man show based on Salvador’s cinematic awakening as a youth, old friends come calling and he is faced with a dilemma he can no longer ignore. Banderas is a revelation, a calming and dimensional if scattered presence and a man who’s lived enough to know he wants to set right the missteps of his past. The performance is a masterclass in vulnerability and buried fears dredged up again, and it’s easily one of his best. But the real magic of Pain & Glory is in its disparate timelines. Are Salvador’s flashbacks really flashbacks, or are they a grand vision for something new? Call it a midlife crisis, call it a bout of crippling nostalgia—call it what you like,

but Salvador’s own salvation comes in the form of acceptance that a new chapter always comes if we let it. One often wonders if one’s best days are behind them, and while what we learn in Pain & Glory can’t possibly quell those fears, it does provide resounding hope. Almodóvar proves his skills for the umpteenth time while coaxing one of the year’s best performances out of Banderas. The lesson is fuzzy, but there for those who look. In a simple phrase? You ain’t seen nothing yet.

PARASITE

+ THRILLING BUILDUP; EXCITING

PERFORMANCES THROUGHOUT

- DISAPPOINTING PAYOFF

Is poverty inescapable? Are its symptoms self-wrought? Must the poor stoop to extreme measures just to get by, and do the wealthy have an ethical obligation to take notice and maybe do something about it? Filmmaker Bong Joon-ho (The Host) raises these and scads of other questions in his newest, Parasite, a semi-comedy, semi-dark parable examining the lengths to which one family will go to survive. We follow Kim Ki-woo, (Choi Woo-shik), a college-aged youth who unwittingly scores a job tutoring English to the daughter of the wealthy Park family. Kim’s own family has slipped into a sort of default conman mode, and he must fake credentials in order to keep his position. Soon after, his sister (Park So-dam), mother (Jang Hye-jin) and father (Song Kang-ho, a regular Bong collaborator in films like The Host and Snowpiercer) have all weaseled their way into various jobs for the Parks, and life seems doable for possibly the first time ever. But when a former employee returns in search of something she left behind, the comfy jobs transform into a hellscape,

Parasite transforms so suddenly that we’re left agog in its startling revelations.

ZOMBIELAND: DOUBLE TAP

wrenching security from the Kim family and spiraling everything out of control. Bong’s eye is, as always, masterful, from the more overt symbolism based in modern-day classism to the subtler moments and examinations of insanity, even if it’s temporary. Each character proves a powerhouse on their own, but the ensemble dynamic of the Kim family feels so natural and comfortable that we find reasons to empathize even when they’re at their worst. Song in particular carries the film in the background with a commanding performance as a desperate father pushed to his very limits. Elsewhere, the Park family’s innocent yet irritating cluelessness starts to make us wonder if vilifying the rich always makes sense—they’re not bad people, they’re just blissfully ignorant of the goings-on in their own home. Parasite morphs so suddenly and jarringly that it becomes a breathless dash to the finish line. Bong brings us to the brink of unforgivable, but keeps us grounded the entire time. Pity, then, that it begins to lag once the major conflict kicks in. The final 30 minutes, which could have reveled in sheer chaos and nearly do, feel more like a sudden drop in pacing than they do a satisfying conclusion. It isn’t even that satisfaction is mandatory, rather that Parasite‘s ending feels more like CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

TERMINATOR: DARK FATE

+ SWEET DETAILED FIGHT SCENES - LITTLE DIALOGUE; CONFUSING TIMELINES

Skynet is back—actually, they were stopped, but now a new self-aware AI, Legion, seeks to destroy the new John Conner, a very confused but resilient Mexican protagonist, Daniella “Dani” Ramos (Natalia Reyes). The film stays with the normal formula the Terminator franchise knows: a shit-load of action. So much action, they literally throw the audience into a 45-minute battle scene at the beginning. Exhilarating, yet exhausting. Terminator: Dark Fate tries to continue the first two films’ timeline, beginning in 1988 where/when Sara Conner (Linda Hamilton) fails to stop the iconic T-1000 terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) from murdering the young CGI animated John Conner (1990s-era Edward Furlong). This scene alone shifts the entire Terminator storyline, deeming the last three films and the short-lived TV series irrelevant, or, as producer James Cameron has described in interviews, alternate timelines.

NOVEMBER 6-12, 2019

•

Director Tim Miller (Deadpool) crafts well-designed fight scenes that provide a very precise attention to detail when coming to, for example, bullets grazing skin, or when the new Terminator (Gabriel Luna) takes multiple rockets to the face. However, the film left me wanting more dialogue, as it was heavy with explosions and physical altercations. It feels like there is so much more to be learned about the newly revamped franchise. The backgrounds of the newly introduced characters are incredibly shallow; cyborg Grace (Mackenzie Davis) is an enticing heroine, yet we learn very little about her features as a augmented human whose sole mission is to save the young Dani. Cameron gets a gold star for trying to retcon the Terminator universe, but pulling from the first two incredibly iconic movies doesn’t have the same feel as it did in the ’80s. Then again, if never-ending action and a Terminator that doesn’t quit with a taste of Schwarzenegger nostalgia is your cup of tea, this movie is for you. (Cade Guerrero)

Filmmaker Taika Waititi (What We Do in the Shadows) is rapidly becoming one of our generation’s most important auteurs, and he’s just earned a spot in the pantheon of semihumorous war films like Life is Beautiful or King

SFREPORTER.COM

of Hearts with his uproarious, uplifting and very funny Jojo Rabbit based on the Christine Leunens novel Caged Skies. We follow Jojo (newcomer Roman Griffin Davis), a 10-year-old Nazi growing up in the fading days of World War II Germany. Jojo’s a bit of a fanatic, a patriot to a terrifying degree with a penchant for his country’s military and Adolf Hitler for an imaginary friend (Waititi plays Hitler in addition to directing and screenwriting duties). But when Jojo discovers a young Jewish woman named Else (Thomasin McKenzie) hidden in his home by his mother (Scarlett Johansson), he’s shaken to his core and begins to question the very fabric of his beliefs and being. The kudos are almost too numerous to hand out, from Waititi’s brilliantly sardonic and darkly hysterical take on Hitler to a trio of bumbling Nazi officers played by Rebel Wilson, Sam Rockwell and Alfie Allen, a startlingly nuanced Johansson (who can hopefully lose the transphobic behavior someday soon), to Stephen Merchant’s deeply disturbing turn as an imposing but painfully polite SS officer. But it’s young Davis’ performance as the sensitive and evolving Jojo that steals the film. Certainly Waititi’s direction had a little something to do with it, but for a kid actor in a first outing, Davis absolutely nails comedic timing, heartbreaking revelations and even the subtleties of self-doubt and sexual awakening. It may be the most fully-formed and memorable youth performance since To Kill a Mockingbird, which is especially fascinating in that he’s a literal Nazi. But, like all of Waititi’s work, there’s an absurdism bubbling beneath the surface of the more overt messaging. He’s a master at pulling an audience into the awkward and keeping us

+ SHEER ART AND HORROR; DAFOE AND PATTINSON; EVERYTHING

- YOU’RE ON YOUR OWN

I don’t believe I’ve used the word masterpiece when reviewing a film, but when it comes to The Lighthouse, director Robert Eggers’ stunning new tale of madness and violence told against the sweeping backdrop of some remote and nondescript island off the coast of New England, it fits. It begins like a dream: Suddenly and without warning, lighthouse keepers Ephraim and Thomas are on a rock in the middle of the sea, tasked with keeping a lighthouse running and utterly, painfully, terrifyingly alone. Thomas (a jaw-droppingly brilliant Willem Dafoe) has been here before, or perhaps he’s never left; other partners, he says, were driven to madness. The solitude has crept in for Thomas, as well, leaving him a callous and particular sort of man. The younger Ephraim (Robert Pattinson, who is so very good let it lay any Twilight jokes to rest), however, is wide-eyed and seemingly innocent, unprepared for the commitment he’s made. He’s new to the job and the demands of the sea; a man looking for a fresh start and running from something dark in his past. Whatever their circumstances before now, cabin fever sets in. Hallucinations take over and any hope for relief, or maybe escape, is soon lost. The longer they toil, the darker their conditions become. Like in Eggers’ previous works (The VVitch, for example), he proves a master of atmosphere and building tensions. Self-inflicted horrors creep up from the shadows and are made unbearable as Ephraim’s behaviors start to mimic those of Thomas’ previous partner, or so we’re told. The omnipresent cacophony of the rotating light’s machinery drones on in the background and becomes the one thing grounding us to what we believe is reality. Or sanity. But then, maybe it isn’t—maybe it’s a low-level form of hypnotism driving us mad, too. The pair becomes intimate during drunken nights and sets out to torture one another during the labor-intensive days. Why is Ephraim there, anyway? Why won’t Thomas let him tend to the massive bulb at the top of the lighthouse? It’s downright Lovecraftian in its building of the unknown; it’s downright mythic in its jumps and scares, right down to Dafoe’s artfully delivered poetic and threatening rants.

If the thought of unknowable cosmic horror sounds cool to you, The Lighthouse is here. Is it better not to know ? Are we punished for our obsessions? Would we even know if we’d lost our minds? Eggers presents these questions, leaving room for interpretation, but never irritatingly; rather, he brings us to the brink of madness alongside his characters, then sends them hurtling headlong into the abyss. We have no choice but to watch, powerlessly. Answers might not come, but they’re not really needed. It’s about the journey, and from every conceivable filmmaking angle, it is brilliant and shocking and disturbing to the very core. Shot in crisp and foreboding black and white, The Lighthouse is as powerful as cinema gets, an absolute must for anyone brave enough to come face to face with its madness. (ADV)

ZOMBIELAND: DOUBLE TAP

+ THE ACTION AND COMEDY - SAME OLD STORY; PROBLEMATIC

JOKES ABOUT NATIVE ANCESTRY

Ah, yes—yet another sequel that amounts to little more than a semi-manipulative jab at nostalgia—this is Zombieland: Double Tap, a continuation of the 2009 Jesse Eisenberg/Woody Harrelson/Emma Stone/Abigail Breslin romp that found disparate post-apocalypse survivors getting by in a world full of zombies. The genre is overloaded, no question, but director Ruben Fleischer’s take back then as today has been to embrace a video game aesthetic for the action scenes and a sort of teen comedy feel for the downtimes. It worked the first time out as silly fun, but now it just feels tired and irritating. Anyway, we catch up with Columbus (Eisenberg), Wichita (Stone), Tallahassee (Harrelson) and Little Rock (Breslin)—so named for their towns of origin—10 years after the events of the first Zombieland. They’ve since moved into the White House, settled into some degree of normal and all is supposed to be well. When Columbus proposes to Wichita, however, she and Little Rock take off, leaving room for newcomers Madison (Zoey Deutch), a valley girl type with a nut allergy, and Berkeley (Avan Jogia), an underdeveloped hippie about whom weed and patchouli jokes are made, to step into shallow roles that don’t matter. Ugh. Meanwhile, there’s a new kind of zombie on the loose (they call it the T-800 because Terminator and because pop culture), but with an assist from a commune living in a skyscraper, an Elvis-obsessed hotel proprietor named Nevada (Rosario Dawson) and a shockingly familiar pair of hunters named Albuquerque and Flagstaff (Luke Wilson and Thomas Middleditch), our heroes might just have a shot at killing off the new undead. Or most of them. OK, some of them.

Eisenberg and Harrelson’s chemistry remains mostly intact, though Woody does much of the heavy lifting while young Jesse does his slightly-more-dimensional, nervous Michael Cera thing. Stone and Breslin may as well not be in the film outside of serving as plot devices, and the new characters just plain aren’t funny or interesting in any way. But Zombieland isn’t about cinematic excellence, it’s about violence and gore and ridiculous fight scenes that are admittedly quite fun. One particular showdown in an Elvisthemed bar brings both thrills and laughs, but it does represent the high point. Elsewhere, we get a steady stream of regurgitated previous events and, chillingly in 2019, a joke about Tallahassee’s supposed Indigenous lineage that is problematic at best and racist at worst; we’d have thought Harrelson would be better than that. And so, Zombieland: Double Tap becomes about escapism, though fans looking to recapture the magic of the first film will surely feel slighted. Everything is less funny and less original. Oh, Emma Stone—you’re honestly too good for this shit. (ADV)

ACUPUNCTURE Rob Brezsny

Week of November 6th

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Aries psychologist James Hillman said we keep “our images and fantasies at arm’s length because they are so full of love.” They’re also quite flammable, he added. They are always on the verge of catching fire, metaphorically speaking. That’s why many people wrap their love-filled images and fantasies in metaphorical asbestos: to prevent them from igniting a blaze in their psyches. In my astrological opinion, you Aries folks always have a mandate to use less asbestos than all the other signs—even none at all. That’s even truer than usual right now. Keep your images and fantasies extra close and raw and wild.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran blogger Ana-Sofia Cardelle was asked, “What is your signature perfume?” She said she hadn’t found one. But then she described how she would like to smell: “somewhere between fresh and earthy: cinnamon and honey, a rose garden, saltwater baked in the sun.” The coming days will be an excellent time to indulge in your own fantasies about the special fragrance you’d like to emanate. Moreover, I bet you’ll be energized by pinpointing a host of qualities you would like to serve as cornerstones of your identity: traits that embody and express your uniqueness.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Poet James Merrill was ecstatic when he learned the Greek language. According to his biographer, he felt he could articulate his needs “with more force and clarity, with greater simplicity and less self-consciousness, than he ever could in his own language.” He concluded, “Freedom to be oneself is all very well; the greater freedom is not to be oneself.” Personally, I think that’s an exaggeration. I believe the freedom to be yourself is very, very important. But for you in the coming weeks, Taurus, the freedom to not be yourself could indeed be quite liberating. What might you do to stretch your capacities beyond what you’ve assumed is true about you? Are you willing to rebel against and transcend your previous self-conceptions?

I suspect that these numbers will be Worker’s Compensation and Auto Accidents Insurance in flux for you during the next twelve months, Scorpio. I bet you’ll make more new friends than usual, and will also accepted 505-501-0439 expand your inner circle. On the other hand, I expect that some people who are now in your sphere will depart. Net result: stronger alliances and more collaboration.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): I blame and thank the Sagittarian part of me when I get brave and brazen enough to follow my strongest emotions where they want to lead me. I also blame and thank the Sagittarian part of me when I strip off my defense GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Musician Brian Eno made mechanisms and invite the world to regard my vula deck of oracular cards called Oblique Strategies. nerabilities as interesting and beautiful.

And yet few of us have been difficulty grasping it. Forty times he read the text, even trained in the best strategies for manifesting our wishes committing it to memory. But he made little progress and hopes. That’s the bad news. The good news is that toward fathoming it. Years later, he was browsing at an now is a favorable time for you to upgrade your skills at outdoor market and found a brief, cheap book about getting what you want. With that in mind, I present you the Metaphysics by an author named al-Farabi. He read with the simple but potent wisdom of author Maya it quickly, and for the first time understood Aristotle’s Angelou: “Ask for what you want and be prepared to great work.
