Max was nine-years old at the time, and neither he nor his family had been involved in the film industry before. Records, the elder, is convinced that this book will disappoint anyone looking for insight into the film or the filmmakers and offers it as a manifestation of his own anxieties; a collection of fears and reassurances, upon letting his son out into a world that is beyond his control.<br /><br />The book is available in a softcover edition for $45, or in softcover with a signed archival inkjet print of your choice (8" x 12" on 11"x 14" paper) for $120. You may order now, but book orders will not be fulfilled until the end of October and print orders not until the end of November.

Mel, you had to go and post <a href="http://www.cigarettesandpurity.com/2009/03/this-video.html">this</a>. Then of course, it made me think of the last time I got sucked into a youtube background replay day.

What I especially love about this one is that problem-solving aspect. I have to admit, when I was first approached, I was reluctant to take on any new commitments, but when I saw how many people were involved who I've been admiring for awhile now, I couldn't say no. This is a party I was excited to be invited to.
