Now

 

I’m now focusing on the following:

-Working with great people at Sony Music’s Latin-Iberia regional office.
-Exercising each day, meditating each day, and journaling every evening.
-Training in Jeet Kune Do.
-In Production for an original song.
-Preparing for Harvard Law School’s online Global Program in Negotiation.
-Doing things I enjoy, including learning more about Vincent van Gogh’s art (in Spanish) and finally reading Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment (also in Spanish)!

If you are for due process, rule of law, truth, humanism, true equality, evidence, critical thinking, justice, logic, great writing, and great filmmaking, and if you are against groupthink, censorship, injustice, blacklisting, manipulation, lying, impulsiveness, gossip, witch hunts, and disinformation, here are my six favorite Woody Allen films, in no particular order (I’ve watched 29 of his films and have enjoyed them all):

Annie Hall
Hannah and Her Sisters
Midnight in Paris
The Purple Rose of Cairo
Broadway Danny Rose
Love and Death

Oh, and does anybody else in the arts remember how Charlie Chaplin was driven out of the United States of America (“land of the free”) out of unfounded suspicions that he was a “dirty communist” and out of ignorant outrage over his marriage to the woman he loved and with whom he lived until his death? No? Does anybody else remember the names of those who mindlessly condemned Chaplin? No? Me neither. And does anybody else remember Charlie Chaplin and his incredible work? Yes? Me too.
