The Poetry of Testimony: Letters2Maybe Showing at the Spring 2022 New Jersey Film Festival on February 6
by Hannah Vliet
published 2022-02-03

Letters2Maybe, a documentary feature by filmmaker, writer, and poet Yehuda Sharim, will show at the New Jersey Film Festival on Sunday, February 6, 2022. This film is a wonderfully wound tapestry of testimonies by immigrants living in the United States. People of varying ages, genders, and ethnicities speak about their experiences, trying to give shape to difficult questions: What does it mean to no longer have access to your homeland? What is the process of becoming disillusioned with the American Dream?  How can community serve as support, solace, and strength in the face of injustice? 




 

Spotlight on Hallows Die

Hallows Die is a band from Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.  They describe their sound as "progressive melodic death metal? We might be missing a few adjectives. We make noise; sometimes it sounds coherent, and sometimes it’s missing a beat." The Penguin Rocks presents this interview with Hallows Die.



Our Favorite Stories In Film - Death of an Umbrella Salesman

As the site approached the milestone, we posed the question on social media as how we should celebrate.  One response was to highlight our favorite stories from over the years.  We liked this idea, but could not narrow things down to just 25 favorites so we will present a favorite each day from different genres.  Every Wednesday will feature a story about film.  This week's choice is our feature on Death of an Umbrella Salesman by Jersey Shore filmmaker Steve Herold.

Alto Saxophonist Mark Gross: Inspired by Cannonball Adderley and Jimmy Heath

by Sanford Josephson
published 2022-02-01

Cannonball Adderley was alto saxophonist Mark Gross’ “biggest influence,” so when he was hired by Cannonball’s younger brother, trumpeter Nat Adderley, in 1995 (20 years after Cannonball’s death), it was “one of the highlights of my career. I came recommended to him,” Gross recalled, “but he had not heard me play. We flew to Europe, and I’m thinking we are going to rehearse. We get to the hotel, we have dinner, and he says, ‘See everybody tomorrow.’”
