Boston rewinds

So with a lot of tinfoil and Mike's emergency casting "I'm Bill Murray and you're everybody else" a craze is born. Soon hipsters, thugs, regular folks, and Mia Farrow having a ball playing a woman named Miss Falewicz are lining up to order titles. Thus their remakes are instantly called "sweded" versions, a perfect term less since it recalls the cinema of Ingmar Bergman and more because it evokes the process of assembling cheap, boxed furniture yourself.

Gondry's illusory summer-camp aesthetic all the tricks feel done with Popsicle sticks, paste, and construction paper is as accessible here as it is in his ads and music videos.

In this movie, it's made to seem egalitarian: Anyone can do this. Would that it were so. But the situationists in the audience will be thrilled: Gondry makes art part of everyday social life.

But Ritch is working on that part of the game. The closure of Boston Pride also comes as several LGBTQ organizations boycott the group for ongoing issues of diversity and inclusion — and according to the Boston Globe, the announcement came after Linda DeMarco said she would resign due to complaints that the organization left out trans people and people of color.

We care too much to stand in the way. Therefore, Boston Pride is dissolving. There will be no further events or programming planned, and the board is taking steps to close down the organization. For years, members accused Boston Pride of not fostering a welcoming environment for people of color. The controversial former Breitbart journalist Milo Yiannopoulos served as grand marshal.
