    "Klosterman wants us to realize what we rely on and have become accustomed to in order for life to feel secure, certain, and predictable (characteristics of captivity). Rationality and empiricism are under the microscope along with religiosity and telos."

    Latest newsletter: 's Alright, Alright, Alright is a fantastic (and surprisingly poignant) oral history of Dazed and Confused. So I wrote about Dazed and Confused as a kind of sports movie.

    There's nothing I could write about Eddie Van Halen today that I didn't already write when he was alive. But he was my favorite guitar player, and I guess he still is (and probably always will be).

    Interesting oral histories about movies are typically about projects that failed. This is an interesting oral history about a project that actually succeeded. It feels the way the movie feels.

    You could compile a pretty comprehensive oral history just from the interviews that got cut out of this book. [6]

    It’s not just the cast and crew of this film. It’s a bunch of the people from SLACKER. It’s actors who never even auditioned. Wes Anderson. Kevin Smith. Ethan Hawke. The real people from Huntsville the fictional characters were based upon. The lead singer of Jackyl. [5]

    The thing that is really astonishing about this book is (a.) the emotional resonance that is still obviously felt by the various performers, and (b.) the sheer amount of interviewing that went into this project. [4]

    The portrait of Richard Linklater is probably the most complete I’ve ever read, at least in terms of how he views high school, actors and actresses, and the process of movie making. But that’s only a fraction of what makes this compelling. [3]

    It was written by my wife, which I realize might make you skeptical of my motives. I would be skeptical, too. But you have to trust me here: this book is not only a deep meditation on DAZED AND CONFUSED, but on ‘90s indie filmmaking in general. [2]
