Pete’s Film Journal: Election Season Cinema with Civil War and Transit by Peter Sarsfield

Civil War   If you’ve seen some of the news lately, you’ve likely been informed about an election this fall. And if you’ve seen any news over the last fifteen years, you’ve likely been informed about an increasingly divided nation on the brink of its self-destruction, maybe eager for civil war, making each subsequent election the most important one yet.    Whether you believe this or not is not the […]

THE BAND LIGHT Delivers Electric Pop Up Show at East Iris Studios

With a backdrop of rolling hills, cicadas, and the hot sun’s final appearance of the day, I sit across from THE BAND LIGHT on the steps of East Iris Studios. There’s a cool breeze, and four cool boys sprawled in front of me like a Rolling Stone cover from the late ‘70s. They’re a fairly new – and fairly young – band in Nashville, but they share an air of […]

Pete’s Film Journal: Why You Should Watch More International Films by Peter Sarsfield

This past Oscars gave me plenty to be hopeful about while it still creates further detachment from the art of film. Al Pacino stumbled in to quickly deliver Best Picture in a manner so truncated I can only appreciate it, and it wasn’t his fault. It was a fitting anticlimax for a night that left little room for surprise, as Oppenheimer was sure to claim the award because of its […]

Putting up 20 points, 10 rebounds, and nearly 5 combined steals and blocks per game, he is putting together one of the best rookie seasons in NBA history. Another freak of nature, Giannis Antetokounmpo is once again a leading name in this season’s […]

PHOTO STORY: Lyn Lapid at EXIT/IN by Reilly Caldwell and Cason McFerrin-Clancy

Earlier this month, Lyn Lapid closed out her "to live in the 21st century, the epilogue" tour at Nashville's iconic EXIT/IN.   Lapid performed many new songs from her album to love in the 21st century: the epilogue, such as "east side" and "like you want me to," as well as fan favorites like "Producer Man." Fans (myself included!) were especially exited to hear Lapid's cover of Toy Story's "When She Loved Me," […]
