Yall have probably heard of independent film director Sofia Coppola, who directed some of the best indie films of all time including Lost in Translation and the Virgin Suicides. What you don’t know is that she has a father who is attempting to break into the movie industry. His name is Francis Ford Coppola. In his debut film Tetro, he casts authentic indie actor Vincent Gallo to play some bro who is just chillin out and being authentic. I think that the film is in black and white to try to win an Oscar, which is a tactic used by Stephan Spielbergher in the hit film Schindler’s List of Bros Who Just Wanted to Live a Chill Life.
Not sure how films work since I am not a film student, but I think that this film uses old French techniques that were used to make things seem very authentic. Not sure what they are called.
does n e1 else think that Vinny Gallo is ‘a genius’? Wonder what male I’d cast if I had to make a movie starring an authentic bro? Tom Hanks? Bob Downey Jr? Zach Braff? Mickey Rourke? Bruce Willis? Adrien Brody? John Heder? Mikey Cera?

Seems like he has an authentic jaw line.

Well yall… I hope that Francis Ford can live up to the high standards of his daughter Sofia. I am afraid that this is just another case of a parent riding his child’s coat tails to fame, much like Lindsay Lohan’s parents.

I condemn all parents who are trying to exploit the success and talents of their children. All I want is for every child to be given a fair shot at a normal life. This is a post about parenting

carles,
kinda wished you blogged about lars von trier’s forthcoming “antichrist” instead of “tetro”. though vincent gallo let chloe sevigny give him a handjob with her mouth in “the brown bunny”, he never let serge gainsbourg cut off his green goblin on screen: http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2009/05/so_what_happens_to_willem_dafoes_genitals.html

Since it is about parenting just wanted to ask you first please be a good father/mother, or if you can both.
The issue with parenting is that this fellow called copolla is way more famous than his daughter, maybe he wanted her to be famous so she woudn’t bother him so much asking for some of it, cause obviously she knew that talent is not her stregth (although TVSuicides was pretty good). I love vincent gallo(spanish word= specially in buffallo 66, he is the best. I bet he even gets up at 6 am to wake up the hens.

i will be a better cooldad.
i will provide love and support through emerging technologies that will allow my burgeoning alt offspring to express themselves uniquely.
i will give them names that will allow them to come up with clever flickr/vimeo/hro usernames based on those names, like Anonymous or Random or Paige.
i will teach them a set of values/goals that will be easy for them to rebel against in the future.
thanks carles for making me a better cooldad.
