A much-loved Canadian biker evidently
doesn’t want to go out to sea. A bottle
containing the ashes of Hugh Robert Nisbet,
known as “Biker Bob,” washed up on the shore
of Clayoquot Island earlier this month,
marking its third landfall. “I was coming down
the beach on the ATV ... noticed a bottle with
a message in it, picked it up and realized it was
Biker Bob,” Dave Watson told the CBC. “I
heard the story of him and just put two and
two together. I thought it was pretty neat.”
Nisbet’s widow, Maudine Previl, tried to honor
her husband, who died in a motorcycle
accident at age 71, by sending his ashes out to
sea in November 2015 near Nanaimo, British
Columbia. That attempt ran into trouble as
Nisbet’s dog repeatedly brought the bottle
back to shore. A few days later, 29-year-old
Justin Bevis found the bottle washed up near
Victoria, some 68 miles south. Inside was a
note reading “If you find me turn me loose.”
Bevis shared a beer with the ashes before
consigning them to the ocean again. In late
February, Caleb Harding and his girlfriend
Bethany James discovered the ash-filled bottle
on China Beach, on the west coast of
Vancouver Island, and posted about the find
on Facebook. Watson, the most recent
recipient of Biker Bob’s remains, has pledged
to take the bottle out for a ride on his Harley
Davidson before sending him back to the
ocean. “We’ll take him a mile offshore so he’ll
be good and free then,” Watson said. “Maybe
next time he’s found in Alaska.”

Police in Las Cruces have arrested a man
suspected of breaking into a convenience store
in the early morning hours of Sunday, Feb.
28—so he could buy some cigarettes. Ellis C.
Battista, 24, reportedly went to purchase a
pack of cigarettes at Bradley’s convenience
store at around 3:30am. The store normally
operates 24 hours a day, but the clerk was not
on duty at that time and the store was locked.
Store surveillance cameras captured Battista
pounding on the store’s front door several
times. Battista then allegedly kicked the door’s
lower glass panel, which broke. Battista
entered the store and selected a pack of his
favorite smokes. According to the Las Cruces
Sun-News, he then “ensured that cameras
captured images of him leaving $6 for the
merchandise.” A witness called 911 to report
the break-in, and police officers located
Battista nearby. Damage to the store’s front
door was estimated at $800. Battista, who is
believed to have been intoxicated at the time,
was charged with one count of breaking and
entering—but not for theft, since he actually

paid for his pack of cigarettes. Battista was
booked into the Doña Ana County Detention
Center and was released on bond.
Dateline: South Carolina
A sheriff’s deputy responded after a 2-year-old
called 911 with an emergency—she needed
help putting on her pants. The Greenville
County Sheriff’s office says Deputy Martha
Lohnes was dispatched on Wednesday, March
2, to investigate a 911 call that “sounded like a
baby had accidentally dialed the emergency
number.” In a post on the department’s
Facebook page, Lohnes wrote, “I show up and
she comes to the door with her pants half on,
saying she can’t get them on. So I sit down on
the stairs and help her put pants on. And then
she proceeds to ask me to pick her up and hug
her.....and that would be the best part of my
shift today.” Deputy Lohnes praised the
toddler, named Aaliyah, for knowing how to
call 911. Pebbles Ryan, the girl’s mother, said
she was surprised to learn of the incident from
her father, who was home watching Aaliyah
while Ryan was at work. “I came home to ‘Oh,
the police helped your daughter put pants on.’
I was like, ‘Oh! OK?’ Then she wouldn’t let
the police leave because she wanted hugs,”
Ryan told local reporters.

In this week’s least shocking news, an Ohio
man who ate his roommate’s brain has been
denied parole for a sixth time. David Allen
Chapin, 60, was deemed “unsuitable for
release” by the Ohio Parole Board earlier this
month. Chapin shot his roommate Donald
Liming in the eye in their apartment in
Milford, Ohio, during an argument over
religion on Oct. 3, 1978. Chapin was Baptist
while Liming claimed to be a Catholic, a
Buddhist and a pagan. At the time of the
shooting both men were 23 and longtime
friends. During the subsequent murder trial,
Chapin pleaded not guilty by reason of
insanity. He told a court-ordered psychiatrist
that he ate part of Liming’s brain as part of a
“mutual agreement” between the roommates.
Chapin is currently serving a life sentence at
the Allen Correctional facility in Lima, Ohio.
He will be eligible again for parole in
December 2018. a

SFUAD Security Policies
Questioned, Updated
College security as well as individual students’
rights to self-protection, defense and respect
became issues at Santa Fe University of Art and
Design recently. SFUAD Director of Facilities and
Security Peter Romero held meetings with
students dwelling on campus last month to discuss
changes in security protocols at the private
institution that serves nearly 800 students;
around 70 percent SFUAD students live on
campus.
Ostensibly, Romero held the meetings to
engender and encourage mutual accountability
among security staff and students, but one of the
big issues that manifested itself during the course
of the dialogues involved the use of pepper spray
and consequently, Romero’s attitude to those oncampus who might possess or use the substance
as a way to defend themselves.
While the spray was banned for on-campus use
at the time of the meetings in February, Romero
told students that a change of policy was in the
works; enrollees at the Santa Fe campus were told
to keep—rather than turn in—pepper spray in their
possession until the update in protocols was
announced. Further, the head of security at the
school indicated he was speaking with a local
vendor to offer SFUAD students a discount on the
self-defense weapon.
Those demonstrations of concern didn’t stop
Romero from speaking in what some students
consider a disrespectful tone during the course of
the discussions.
In the SFUAD online newspaper, The
Jackalope, Film major Ashley Crandall said she
asked Romero during one of the campus meetings
why she couldn’t use the pepper spray she carries
on her keychain. Romero responded speculatively
and allegedly said, “What if you decide to be a
bitch and pepper spray your boyfriend in the face?”
Other students interviewed for the article in the
student-run online newspaper also indicated they
had reservations about the level of respect shown
by campus security when dealing with
undergraduates attending the school.
The head of school security was later quoted in
SFUAD’s student publication as having regretted
the comment. Meanwhile officials at the university
say the pepper spray policy has now been revised.
SFUAD Public Relations Manager Loren McDaniel
told Weekly Alibi, “We take student concerns
seriously and thoughtfully reviewed the pepper
spray policy during the past few weeks. The
administration has decided to allow small
containers of pepper spray (3 ounces or smaller)
on campus.”
So far there is no word on whether Romero will
face disciplinary action for his alleged
transgression, although the website of the Center
for Online Reporting Accountability notes that the
author of the Jackalope article, Charlotte Renken
contends Romero has a “reputation on campus for
not respecting students.” The same article also
reports that while the reaction to Romero’s words
has been “incendiary” and a student group,
ColleXion, has been formed to deal with the
situation, Renken tempered her remarks by telling
CORA, “... we can work to fix the problems on
campus,” further stating that progress will happen
when administrators realize “this isn’t just a bunch
of students complaining … this is more than young
adult angst.”
Finally, the Interim President of SFUAD, Dr.
Maria Puzzierro also sought to ameliorate the
current situation, telling Weekly Alibi, “The
safety and security of our students is a top
priority. We encourage open dialogue with our
students, faculty and staff on ways we can
continue to ensure we share a safe and thriving
campus community.” a

Trucks, Buses, Trash and Cops
Council faces hot button issues
Little Bit Closer
BY CAROLYN CARLSON
City Councilors passed a bill that allows
food trucks to park a little closer to brick
and mortar restaurants. Currently food
trucks have to maintain a 100-foot buffer
all the time. The measure allows food
trucks to move to within 75 feet when the
restaurants are closed. Food trucks are
popular and are often parked near the many
micro breweries in Nob Hill and
Downtown, especially on weekends when
the bars are hopping and many surrounding
restaurants are closed. If you are curious
about what our local food trucks have to
offer, check them out on Wednesdays in the
parking lot of Talin Market located at
Central and Louisiana.
lbuquerque City Councilors faced some
touchy subjects at their March 7 regular
meeting. Trucks, buses and trash were
on the table along with taking city
administrators to task about the scathing
report issued by the US Department of
Justice regarding the lack of progress being
made by the city’s police department in
complying with the court mandated
consent decree.
A
Answer Up!
Councilors grilled City Attorney Jessica
Hernandez and Police Chief Gorden Eden
about the independent monitor’s report
that called out Hernandez directly for her
“delay, do little and deflect” tactics, and
noted dealing with her was “a little rougher
than most.” Councilor Pat Davis, himself a
former police officer, asked Chief Eden
“who was in charge of fixing the police
department.” Eden appropriately replied
that he was accountable. The chit-chat got
stern when Councilors on both sides of the
political aisle demanded reassurance from
city legal beagles that the criticism in
Ginger’s report will be addressed. “I
understand how serious this concern is,”
Hernandez said. She said she was not aware
until the report came out that Ginger had a
problem with her, and that she is willing to
work to resolve the issues with Ginger. The
mandated changes are part of a settlement
with the DOJ after the agency found that
the city’s police department had a pattern
of violating people’s rights.
Stinky Business
A request by the city for a zone change to
add a solid waste transfer station at the
intersection of Edith and Comanche in the
city’s mid-North Valley, will head back to
the Environmental Planning Commission
for further review. City Councilors
unanimously, and without comment,
accepted the Land Use Hearing Officer’s
recommendation that the city’s planning
commission take another look at the plan.
The transfer station will allow trucks to
unload at that location and not have to go
out to the West Mesa landfill. Opponents
say adding a solid waste transfer station will
be noisy, dangerous, unhealthy for area
residents and could possibly drop area
property values. City officials say the new
transfer station is needed to handle the
large amount of solid waste city residents
generate. The city says the addition of a
mid-city transfer station would be indoors,
have air filters and will save the city $75

million over the next 20 years, while
reducing the city’s carbon footprint. The
zone change will be back in front of the
Council when the EPC has finished its
review.
ART Smart?
Two measures were introduced regarding
the proposed ABQ Rapid Transit plan.
They were not discussed but are set to be
discussed at the March 21 meeting.
Councilors Ken Sanchez (D) and Don
Harris (R) joined together to propose a bill
that will ask for the Council to approve
accepting federal monies and starting the
project. Councilors Brad Winter (R) and
Sanchez introduced a measure to allow
residents and businesses along the proposed
route to organize a transit advisory board.
Councilor Dan Lewis (R) had said he will
introduce a measure opposing the proposed
ART route but it was not ready to be
introduced. Recent public meetings have
become unruly to the point of shouting,
interrupting and face-to-face confrontations
between Councilors, city administrators
and residents. It seems no one at City Hall
wants to look at alternate routes such as
Lomas for the transportation route that
could go from Old Town to the state fair
grounds and malls, be welcomed by the
businesses along the route, not add
congestion into already cramped space, and
actually spur development rather than deter
development; the current proposal is
obviously divisive despite bi-partisan
Council support.
Councilors amended the Huning Highland
Sector Development Plan to allow for
micro breweries to set up shop. Councilor
Isaac Benton said residents in the area
asked for the change so they can be part of
the growing micro beer and wine
development in the city. Albuquerque is
becoming nationally known for its number
and quality of microbreweries. New Mexico
is known for its long history of winemaking
as well.

OPINION | ¡ASK A MEXICAN!
BY GUSTAVO ARELLANO
ear Mexican: What are Mexico’s
residency requirements and how do you
apply for their version of a green card?
Because if that racist fuck Trump gets
elected, I’m outta here. We’ve gone too far in
the past 40 (20, if you’re from the South) to
go back to the days of Jim Crow. Eight years
of Bush was bad enough.
—Not Gonna
Put Up with that BS
D
Dear Gabacho: The detailed
answer is in my book; the
short answer is Mexico’s
probably going to end
up building the border
wall to keep out
gabachos like you who
didn’t do enough to
defeat the Drumpf.
Dear Mexican: Do you
think that maybe
television is part of the
reason for this mass
migration of people from
Mexico and elsewhere to the
United States. For example, the show
you probably know, “The O.C.”—and what
is it we see on “The O.C.”? We see bikiniclad babes and buff lifeguards that live on the
beach in nice houses with green lawns. They
have exercise machines that look like UFOs
and fancy sports cars. They have lots of
food, good booze, lots of sex—and most
important of all, lots of money. On TV, we
advertise the US 24/7. We have rock and
roll, gangsta rap, reggeaton and WWE. We
got those brave detectives from NYPD
keeping order in the streets, and the NYFD,
who will show up at your door in 15 minutes
or less after you dial 911. We got Russell
Crowe, Sharon Stone, Madonna, U2, Sly
Stallone, Daddy Yankee, Snoop Dogg,
George Lopez, Cheech and Chong, Larry the
Cable Guy, J-Lo and all our ambassadors and
politicians smiling in the camera saying,
“Come on over and play with us. Come on
over and get some of this! Come on over to
Fantasylandia with your host, Barack
Obama.” Hey, it’s only just across the
border.
—I Watch Too Much Glenn
Beck
Dear Gabacho: American television? The only
thing Mexicans ever picked up from it was The
Simpsons, which remains one of the most
popular gabacho shows in Mexico even though
Homer’s name is Homero and Bart goes by
Bartolo. Other American shows are popular,
but that’s not what drives Mexicans to come
over; it’s the jobs, estúpido. And given there
ain’t many right now, not as many Mexis are
crossing over. You want a better conspiracy?
Go investigate whether
Thomas Alva Edison
was really Tomás
Álvaro—the answer
may surprise you!
Dear Mexican: My
mom has long thought
it cute and fun to
quiz waiters in
Mexican restaurants
on how to say things
in Spanish. When I
was a girl growing up
in an incredibly nondiverse area (Oregon),
she said it would help
me learn Spanish and that
I should take advantage of
these rare opportunities to talk
with native Spanish speakers. But
I’ve always felt it was a little rude, and
maybe even condescending, to impose upon
service people in this way. Is it?
—Medford Maiden
Dear Gabacha: Todo tiene its time and place
when it comes to learning Spanish. Getting it
on with a Mexican? He’ll teach you the
language of love. Protesting Donald Trump?
You’ll learn so many ways of saying chinga tu
madre that you’ll be able to walk the streets of
Tepito with ease. But while a Mexican is
working and serving you? Proceed with
respect. If business is slow, quiz away; if they’re
occupied, leave them be. Otherwise, they’ll
tell their fellow meseros in the back of the
kitchen about the loud gabacha and spit in
your chips—as they should. a

The Jewish Community Center of Greater Albuquerque presents
Einstein: A Stage Portrait, a one-man play that features the great
scientist—here portrayed by local actor Tom Schuch—breaking the
fourth wall to interact with a curious audience about his life and work.
The production celebrates Einstein’s March 14 birthday as well as the
101st anniversary of his elucidation of the General Theory of Relativity.
By turns humorous, introspective, informative and musical, the
production focuses on Einstein’s impact on culture by bringing an
evocative semblance of the man’s accomplishments to the fore through
dramatic monologue and historically accurate, engaging
demonstrations. JCC Director Dave Simon said the play “brings Einstein
to life and can also encourage young New Mexicans to pursue careers
in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.” Advance tickets
to this relatively enchanting evening range from $10-20; they’ll cost
between $12-25 the day of the show. In addition, at intermission,
pieces of pie will be available for purchase in honor of Pi Day and a
heady discussion featuring members of the local scientific community
will follow the performance. (August March) a

While native traditions are respected in New Mexico (like, besides the Zia
Tribe’s sun symbol being used without their permission on our state flag

The Merits of Loneliness
In After the Parade Lori Ostlund imbues life with poetry
BY MAGGIE GRIMASON
hen I completed After the Parade, I had a
notion of who I would meet when I rode
my bike to Zendo to interview its author.
If first impressions speak at all, I was right. Lori
Ostlund was insightful and inquisitive—her
expressions were serious, her words kind.
“Many of my students think of writing as an
opportunity to exact a little revenge … [but]
the writing process should transform that.
When you sit down to write you have to
consider why that character does the things
they do. I’ve realized how important and
overlooked kindness is,” Ostlund said at one
point in our conversation when I asked her if
it was exhausting to write her overwhelmingly
lonely cast of characters with such empathy.
After the Parade is populated with outsiders.
And they never triumph, at least not
explicitly. There’s Bernice, whose size prohibits
her from achieving her full intellectual
potential, Clarence, a dwarf with so-called
“tusks” who is sequestered away in a rural
farmhouse, an alcoholic fishermen, a detective
with a poorly attended funeral and there’s
Aaron Englund, our main character. At the
beginning of the novel, Aaron is leaving
Albuquerque and with it, his partner of more
than 20 years. “Aaron always lived with people
who assert a certain influence [over him],”
Ostlund explained. “His father who was cruel,
his mother who was unhappy—and any time
you live with someone unhappy it controls
both of your lives—and then he goes
immediately to Walter [his partner].” She begs
the question, what would it be like to reach
the age of 41 without knowing who you are,
alone?
“The book is about loneliness, but … there
are good ways to be lonely,” she continued.
Ostlund, who received a graduate degree from
UNM but left Albuquerque in 2005 for San
Francisco, has returned as a visiting writer in
the university’s MFA program. The trajectory
of her life, in many ways, is reflected in After
the Parade. Like the book’s main character,
Ostlund left a small, Midwestern town for
Albuquerque and later, moved even farther
west, and like Aaron, she, too, was quiet. “I
was really shy as a kid, so people always told
me stories. I was a really good listener, I just
didn’t know how to talk … What’s shaped me
as a person are the stories that people have
told me all my life. They changed who I was.”
And like Aaron, Ostlund has found a voice.
“I give [my] characters some of myself,”
Ostlund explained, “so I have that way in.
[Aaron] has my birthday.” Yet, it is apparent
that Aaron’s heart-wrenching attention to
detail, his collection of stories, and portions of
his history, are Ostlund’s too. “What makes
people leave a small town and what makes
other people stay?” she asked. “Why do some
W
people crave the familiar even if it might be
getting in their way? Of course, I was thinking
about myself. Leaving for me was pretty easy, I
was gay, and that helped push me on my way.”
And so is Aaron. Almost out of obligation,
though, I asked Ostlund about the how’s and
why’s of writing a male character—what
seemed to me a striking difference between the
two. She answered by describing trying to
write an essay about women who have written
male characters. I began to wrack my mind for
a few titles and came up with only one. “Men
do it all the time, but it is so rare for a woman
to write a male character … you can’t think of
him first as male, you have to think of him
first as your character … if you write only the
experience that you know, that’s limiting.” Yet,
it’s clear that Ostlund knows her character
intimately. She’s written thousands of pages
about him, only a small portion of which
comprise the whole of After the Parade.
Ostlund has just as intimate a relationship
with her prose. The words are strikingly deft
and the metaphors are clean. Aaron, an ESL
teacher, moves through tenses and hopeful
clauses just as the book cycles through the past
and present with agility. The revelations here
are slow and require the perspective of age,
like watching a movie as an adult and
suddenly understanding all the jokes you
didn’t get as a child. Language is of a high
priority and it is apparent that each sentence is
constructed with care. “I just like sentences,”
Ostlund explained, “I write slowly. If I don’t
like the sentence, I don’t feel compelled to go
on to the next one. Every sentence has been
worked on hundreds of times.” Perhaps it is a
product of Ostlund’s love of poetry. More than
once, her characters recite the opening lines of
Richard Hugo’s “Degrees of Gray in
Philipsburg,” (“You might come here Sunday
on a whim./ Say your life broke down.”) They
disparage Walt Whitman. “So much [of
writing this] was trying to remember how I felt
about things when I was young … the sense of
wonder at seeing a set of twins, maybe … As
an adult that feeling of wonder isn’t something
you move through your day with. I can
remember the moment I discovered poetry. I
remember those moments when I was a kid
and I realized [that] the world is big.” For
Aaron, and perhaps for Ostlund, too, the well
crafted phrase, the beauty of a line or a
sentence, is a doorway back to that feeling. For
readers too, After the Parade provides ample
poetry and an avenue back to wonder. a

housed in an easy-to-miss, unassuming
building on Juan Tabo, a street I don’t have
much occasion to travel unless I’m visiting
my dear friends, Dee and Alex. When we
weren’t coming up with adjectives to describe
our food (“piquant,” “pillowy,” “delicate”) we
discussed the supposedly poor conditions at
the neon work farm of trapper keeper artist
Lisa Frank in Arizona (as posited by Jezebel in
an article coolly titled “Inside the Rainbow
Gulag”) and rehashed some jokes that were
made in poor taste while stranded at a gas
station. Visiting these two is enough of a
reason to soldier to the Northeast Heights,
but An Hy Quan’s menu of creative
vegetarian Vietnamese food is another.
Despite knowing of its existence for some
time, this was my first visit to An Hy Quan.
After some pleasant banter with our waiter,
who was, incidentally, also the owner, we
ordered deep fried egg rolls and steamed buns
with vegetable filling for starters, and because
someone else was picking up the ticket, I
ordered coconut water to drink. The coconut
water was served in glassware reminiscent of a
milkshake, with a spoon resting gently against
the rim; thick spirals of coconut flesh floated
in it. This beverage-come-appetizer was
amazingly bright—lighter and not quite as
sweet as the tall aluminum cans of coconut
water I’m used to. The steamed buns and egg
rolls arrived shortly thereafter. The buns were
doughy and stuffed with Chinese black
mushrooms, cooked greens and wheat gluten
seasoned like pork. “Say that we loved them,”
Dee told me before the topic of conversation

veered in the direction of grant writing. The
egg rolls were less impressive, though,
truthfully, I’ve never had a bad egg roll. There
were no surprises with these—just
straightforward vegetable stuffed egg rolls
served with a sweet chili sauce. I ate them
happily.
Despite being tempted by specials that
reflected the French influence on Vietnamese
food such as a French onion soup, I asked the
waiter for his suggestion and without
hesitation, he pointed to the cashew mock
pork with rice. Equally decisive, I ordered it. It
was a safe suggestion, because I can’t imagine
any omnivore not enjoying the chewy hunks
of protein bathed in a thick, salty gravy,
crushed cashews on top and a heaping portion
of rice on the side. Dee and Alex were equally
pleased with their selections, crispy chow
mein and vegetarian pho, respectively. An Hy
Quan was particularly successful in creating a
flavorful vegetarian pho broth with high notes
of anise, a quality Dee had been hunting for
for some time.
It was my second visit to An Hy Quan that
confirmed my devotion, however. It was a
Tuesday night, and a small group was leaving
as I walked in, leaving me the restaurant to
myself. A child sat near the kitchen doing
homework; it was very quiet. I ordered a
papaya salad to start. In my notes about this
dish, I simply wrote, “crazy good.” Comprised
of firm slivers of papaya in a light chili sauce,
topped with fresh basil and crushed peanuts,
this is something that I would literally eat
everyday. I at least got to eat it two days in a
row, because the servings at An Hy Quan are
sizable. Delivered with the salad was a plate of
fried potato starch chips with a bowl of chili
sauce—“chips and salsa,” the owner remarked
as he set them down. It was kind of difficult to
set them aside to leave room for the main
course.
When my clay pot bean curd with
pineapple arrived I was already a little full. I
ordered it because it sounded interesting, not
because it appealed to what I think of as my
usual tastes. After tasting the sweet fruit in its
thick, savory sauce, however, I think I’ll find
it difficult to order anything else on my next,
of hopefully many, visits to An Hy Quan.
Cabbage, rice and carrots were served on the
side and added a nice variety of textures to the
dish.
By the time I was preparing to leave, others
were filing in. I paid the $14.47 bill—a price
tag that afforded me multiple meals—and
headed for the door. As I made my way out, I
heard other patrons telling the waiter how
incredible their food was, so I can only
imagine that I’m not the only one to have this
experience; in fact, I’m certain this reaction is
commonplace at An Hy Quan. a
π Walk 2016
My Pie Walk—a pre-Pi Day event that I’d
planned in support of pi (or against it, or
whatever—to be honest, I’m not really sure what
Pi Day is all about, I’m terrible at math.) was
falling apart. I hadn’t expected my partner to be
a vegan, but at the time it seemed like the
smallest of humps. With undeserved confidence,
I’d said, “Vegan pie? I’m sure we can find vegan
pie. It’s 2016.” But apparently no one in this city
knows how to make vegan pie.
I chewed anxiously at my thumbnail while
Megan Reneau—the Alibi’s in-house gal-abouttown—answered a threatening email I’d sent to
her desk. Intimidation obviously works. She
presented me with a short list of restaurants in
ABQ that serve vegan pie. A very short list. That
list had one name. Yes, dear reader, even after
straining every journalistic muscle in my body, I
was still only able to find one place (with two
locations) in the entire metro area that could
supply our crew with the proper fuel for our
free-wheeling, sugar-powered pie orgy:
Annapurna’s Vegetarian World Cafė
(2201 Silver SE).
I thanked Ganesh, destroyer of obstacles,
and headed over. With clammy expectancy, we
watched as four slices were laid out on the
table. I first tried the sweet potato pie, which
was rich and daintily spiced. The coconut pie
tasted great, but it felt like I was chewing on
carpet. By far, the winner of the afternoon was
the apple-cranberry pie. Tart and sweet, it was
the only piece that disappeared fully before we
left.
With a belly full of animal-free baked goods, I
dropped off my friend, pretended to yawn. “I am
bushed. I couldn’t possibly eat more pie,” I said. I
then drove to the park on Carlisle and Lomas,
ran sprints for five minutes, loosened my tie,
drank a bottle of water and sprinted some more.
Then I was off to the New Mexico Pie Company
(4003 Carlisle NE), the land of milk, honey and
eggs. “You guys have vegan pie?” I asked.
Before the server had time to answer, I cut her
off. “How about meat pies?” Some people are
never satisfied.
I ordered a five-inch, from-scratch, classic
apple and stared at it for a full minute in silence
before putting my fork to it. It was earthmoving. Apple pie like your mother used to
make. (Well, not my mother, but we must forgive
the foibles of those we love.)
So much for a Pie Walk. Albuquerque, I am
ashamed of you. You have one year to get your
act together and learn how to bake some vegan
pie before Pie Walk 2017. I’m planning on a
disgusting display of gluttonous abandon, the
likes of which will make mothers weep and milk
curdle in the glass, and if I have to provide my
own pie, I swear there will be hell to pay. a

Damn. Shaman got abs.
Embrace of the Serpent
Trippy Colombian adventure tale takes us up the river and out of our heads
mbrace of the Serpent, the Colombian film
nominated for Best Foreign Language Film
at this year’s Oscars, takes viewers on a
mythopoetic historical trip up the mysterious
Amazon river. Of course, any time you depict
the clash of European and native cultures
along that particular waterway, you’re pretty
much playing in Werner Herzog’s sandbox.
The famed German director created the
ultimate statement on the subject with his
indelible 1972 film Aguirre, The Wrath of God.
Embrace of the Serpent tackles the subject with
slightly less angst, but with an increasing
amount of metaphysical weight.
The film, written and directed by Ciro
Guerra (The Wind Journeys, La Sombra del
Caminante), is loosely inspired by the journals
of European explorers Theodor Koch-Grunberg
and Richard Evans Schultes. The two were
ethnologists and ethnobotanists who wrote
extensively about the native peoples of the
Amazon river basin. In many cases, the writings
of these two men are the only records we have
of long-lost tribes and long-forgotten plants.
Shot in luminous black-and-white, the film
takes us first back to 1909 when the
fictionalized Theodor (Jan Bijvoet) and his
loyal native guide (Yauenkü Migue) stumble
into the isolated camp of legendary, hermitlike shaman Karamakate (Nilbio Torres).
Theodor, a gentleman explorer, has contracted
some unknown tropical illness and is on
death’s door. The locals have informed him
that only the ministrations of Karamakate can
save him. But the bitter young shaman is the

last of his people and his mistrust of white men
is strong. Eventually, however, he’s convinced
to help Theodor, leading the scientist on a
punishing quest along the river to find a rare
flower, the yakruna, with allegedly miraculous
healing powers.
In a parallel storyline, set decades later, a
German ethnobotanist named Evan (Brionne
Davis) shows up looking for Karamakate.
Theodor, it seems, never made it out of the
jungle, but his journals were published and
have been the last word on Amazonian culture
and medicine for the last 30 years. Evan wants
to confirm the writings and asks a now aged
Karamakate (Antonio Bolivar) to take him on
the same journey upriver. Unfortunately, the
shaman is a senile shell of his former self. The
formulas for his miraculous cures are now lost
to time. But he flips the script on the German
and asks the European to serve as guide back
to the “Workshop of the Gods” where the last
surviving yakruna flowers might be found.
By paging back and forth in time, the film
contemplates how modern civilization has
impacted this delicate biological region.
Successive generations of colonists,
conquerers, rubber barons and religious
missionaries have all but wiped out native
traditions—taking countless medicinal
mysteries with them. Although, for the
majority of its run time, Embrace of the Serpent
sticks to its ethnographic vibe, it becomes
increasingly dark, tense and spiritual the
farther up the river its two sets of characters
journey.
The two tales eventually overlap in a vivid
set piece reminiscent of Apocalypse Now’s
darkest moments. Back in 1909, Theo and
Karamakate arrive at an isolated Catholic
mission serving as a de facto orphanage for
children who have escaped the cruelties of the
rubber trade. In the 1940s Evan and
Karamakate come to the same mission, now
crumbling into the jungle and home to a
particularly twisted religious cult. Although
much of the film explores the destruction of
native culture by European colonists, this
section gets at the heart of the matter. On his
second visit to the mission, Karamakate
realizes that the two cultures have failed to
share their beneficial knowledge with one
another and have merely melded “the worst of
two worlds.”
In following its two symmetrical storylines,
Embrace of the Serpent does run a tad long. It’s
just over two hours, and there’s a lot of
paddling in the middle. But it’s such an
absorbing, vividly told, luminously
photographed narrative that viewer interest
rarely flags. The visceral centerpiece at the
mission and an appropriately mystical coda are
among the hypnotic highlights. Like the
various backwoods drugs Karamakate pumps
his charges full of to keep them moving,
Embrace of the Serpent will mesmerize you,
make you woozy, jack you up, enlighten you
and leave you somewhat worse for wear. a
On Friday, March 11, The Kosmos arts and
entertainment space is promising a “power to the
people” Guerilla Film Festival. Organizers say it
will be an all-inclusive event for the filmmakers
and the film goers with “incredible international
short films that are not typically ever presented in
New Mexico.” The screening is scheduled to take
place from 7 to 10pm. Tickets are $5 and are
available in advance through holdmyticket.com.
The Kosmos is located inside Factory on 5th
(1715 5th Street NW).
Spice in the slice
The New Mexico Film Foundation is teaming up
with the Albuquerque Film Office’s Indie Q
program to screen the “Life in New Mexico”
media project videos. According to NMFF
executive director Dirk Norris, “The purpose of
the Life in New Mexico project is to bring
attention to the post-production process that is
part of the New Mexico film industry and to
highlight the New Mexico men and women who
work in this area of filmmaking.” The project
began last year when the general public was
asked to submit video clips of their daily life here
in New Mexico. These clips were handed over to
local film and video editors recruited by the New
Mexico Post Alliance. Five professional editors
and four student editors participated this year,
transforming the various clips into videos of up to
10 minutes in length. The New Mexico Tourism
Department became a partner in this year’s
project as part of its “New Mexico True”
campaign. A total of 12 different videos were
completed by the editors. The winning video will
land its creator a package of prizes including
professional software, cash and a special travel
package. You can check out all 12 of this year’s
submissions by going to the KiMo Theatre (423
Central NW) on Wednesday, March 16. Admission
is free, and the screening starts at 7pm.

t’s something a lot of us have been wondering:
What the hell was Oscar-winning actor Sean
Penn doing in Mexico interviewing fugitive
drug dealer Joaquin Archivaldo Guzman?
Ostensibly, Penn agreed to meet with the man
better known as “El Chapo” in the remote
mountains of Sinaloa in order to interview him
for Rolling Stone magazine. At the time, of course,
Guzman was on the run, having escaped from a
maximum security prison. It wasn’t until after
Guzman’s capture and return to prison that
Penn’s little meeting was revealed. The result was
a curiously self-serving article in Rolling Stone, a
touch of speculation that Penn had unwittingly
led Mexican police right to Guzman’s hideout
and a whole lot of questions along the lines of
“WTF, Spicoli?”
Now Reelz Channel has constructed a show
biz-meets-drug biz documentary titled “El Chapo
& Sean Penn: Bungle in the Jungle” in an
attempt to answer some of these questions. The
hour-long special boasts all the chop-chopchoppy editing of an “Inside Edition” episode and
all the breathlessly earnest narration of a “Behind
the Music” special. It promises “mystery, drama,
intrigue, romance, even comedy.” The comedy
comes in, perhaps, when the narrator informs
viewers that Guzman and Penn “lived parallel
lives” and that they were “almost predestined” to
meet. Check out this eerie little nugget: Guzman
was born in rural Mexico in a town called La
Tuna. Penn was born in Malibu, California—
which has a “Tuna Canyon Road.” Coincidence?
I think not! It’s like a “Twilight Zone” episode up
in here.
“Bungle in the Jungle” wastes about threequarters of its runtime on standard-issue,
Wikipedia-style biographical details. Guzman’s

rise to the top of the Sinaloan drug cartel is
expressed in staccato sentences, each punctuated
with a dramatic, “CSI”-style musical sting. Penn’s
marriage to Madonna is delivered in the same
overinflated, scandal-rag tone.
There is a bit of background on Penn’s radical
political activism—meeting with Venezuelan
President Hugo Chavez and Cuban ruler Raul
Castro—but there’s little context given to it. The
closest to Penn the documentary is capable of
getting is interviewing a former personal assistant.
The talking head experts are a random collection
of TV show judges and show biz commentators.
Why bother interviewing actual law enforcement
officials and journalists when we can find out
what standup comic Paul Rodriguez thinks of this
story?
Producers try to work up a bit of conspiracy
theory. According to them Penn wasn’t simply
there to interview El Chapo for an article. He
was there at the behest of Mexican soap star Kate
del Castillo, who was trading flirty texts with El
Chapo. Allegedly, the vainglorious El Chapo
wanted to get a Hollywood movie made about his
life and the opportunistic del Castillo wanted to
scam some money for her flagging tequila brand.
The Rolling Stone article was just an after-the-fact
attempt to cover up for Penn’s business trip. As
far as conspiracies go, this one isn’t very farreaching. Was Penn really there to research El
Chapo so he could play the guy in a biopic to be
directed by Oliver Stone? Stone isn’t interviewed
here and wouldn’t comment, so we’ll put that
down as a solid “Yeah, maybe.”
“El Chapo & Sean Penn: Bungle in the

Ruiz de la Torre Law Firm
What was your first job?
I worked for Ahmad Assad as a law
clerk during law school, and then as an
associate at his firm for one year. I then
left to work for the Public Defender’s
office, in the appeals division.
Why did you choose this
business?
I like helping people solve their legal
problems. Our legal system can be
challenging, and it’s fulfilling for me to
guide people through it, and arrive at a
solution that is fair and just—or as close
to it as possible. It’s also a great thrill to
get an innocent defendant acquitted at
trial, or to win an appeal and get someone
out of prison. And when people are
injured or hurt, I want to be there to help
them figure out how to be properly
compensated.
What is your educational
background?
I went to UNM Law School. I also
received a masters degree in music from
Indiana University, and I play classical
and jazz piano. One of my practice areas is
entertainment law, which allows me to
apply my experiences in the music
business to the practive of law.
Why did you choose to do
business in Albuquerque?
I went to law school here, and I
started a family here. I love the mountains
and the culture here that feels like a
smaller city. I’m Cuban American and I
also speak fluent Spanish, which is a great
asset for my clients here.
What motivates you to succeed
besides the desire to make
money?
I enjoy helping law make sense to
regular people. Though it may sound
simple, when law makes sense it’s easier to
bring about a just resolution for everyone
involved. a

FILM | CAPSULES
OPENING THIS WEEK
10 Cloverfield Lane
This low-budget horror-mystery is a “secret” spin-off of the J.J.
Abrams-produced giant monster movie Cloverfield. John
Goodman plays a survivalist who rescues a young woman
(Mary Elizabeth Winstead) and stashes her away in his
underground bunker. But is the world really coming to an end,
or is he just a crazy dude? (Given that this is a sequel to
Cloverfield, the surprise ending probably isn’t much of a
surprise.) 105 minutes. PG-13. (Opens Thursday 3/10 at
Grande 12 Albuquerque IMAX, Rio Rancho Premiere Cinema,
Century 14 Downtown, Century Rio, Icon Cinemas
Albuquerque, Cottonwood Stadium 16)
The Brothers Grimsby
Odds are if you’re not British, you have no idea what Grimsby
is or what’s so inherently hysterical about it. (It’s an
impoverished industrial seaport in Lincolnshire and the butt
of many English jokes.) Even if you’re a big fan of writer/star
Sacha Baron Cohen (Borat, Brüno, The Dictator), you may find
it hard to dredge laughs from this gross-out, lowbrow comedy.
Cohen plays a white trash bloke from Grimsby who smokes,
drinks, steals, does drugs, has 11 kids out of wedlock and
lives off of government assistance (because poor people are
the worst). He also happens to have a long-lost brother (Mark
Strong) who’s an international superspy—so at some point,
the film turns into a bullet-riddled James Bond spoof. (Like
we need another one of those.) Mostly, though, it’s just jokes
about penises, AIDS, wieners, fellatio, genitalia, seminal fluid
and erect male members. 83 minutes. R. (Opens Thursday
3/10 at Grande 12 Albuquerque IMAX, Rio Rancho Premiere
Cinema, Century Rio)
Courting Des Moines
This “fake story about the real Iowa Caucus” turns the online
series “Chasing the Hill, Courting Des Moines”—about a
California Congresswoman who moves to Iowa and runs for
president—into a feature film. Interspersed amid the fictional
story are interviews with real politicians, including Bernie
Sanders, Tom Harkin, Lindsey Graham and Martin O’Malley.
90 minutes. Unrated. (Opens Tuesday 3/15 at Guild Cinema)
Reviewed this issue. 125 minutes. Unrated. (Opens Friday
3/11 at Guild Cinema)
Gabo: The Creation of Gabriel Garcia
Marquez
This international co-production, directed by the Barcelonabased filmmaker Justin Webster and shot in Colombia, Cuba,
France, Mexico, the US and Spain, aims to be the definitive
portrait of the Nobel Prize-winning author. That’s a tall order,
but the filmmakers effectively follow the interwoven threads of
the author’s life and his work, finding a balance between
politics and poetry. In English and Spanish with English
subtitles. 90 minutes. Unrated. (Opens Tuesday 3/15 at Guild
Cinema)
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
It gets no better than this, people, one of the most epic
Westerns ever shot with Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef and Eli
Wallach gunning for a fortune in lost gold. The Italian great
Sergio Leone made it in 1968, and if you’ve never seen it on
a big screen—you need to! 161 minutes. (Opens Sunday
3/13 at Century 14 Downtown, Century Rio)
Only Yesterday
Daddy’s Home
The Other Side of the Door
This long-unreleased 1991 anime from Studio Ghibli (My
Neighbor Totoro, Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away) finally
gets an American dub, featuring the voices of Daisy Ridley
(Star Wars: The Force Awakens) and Dev Patel (Slumdog
Millionaire). It’s a gentle, nostalgic story about a 27-year-old
office worker who travels to the Japanese countryside while
reminiscing about her childhood in late-’60s Tokyo. It’s a
modest, realistic family drama that confronts the position of
women in modern Japanese society. Adapted from the
popular manga Omohide Poro Poro. 118 minutes. PG.
(Opens Friday 3/11 at High Ridge)
Will Ferrell is a mild-mannered radio executive trying his best
to connect with his two stepchildren. The task becomes
harder when the kids’ kick-ass biological father (Mark
Wahlberg) comes home for a visit. If you loved Ferrell and
Wahlberg in The Other Guys ... then your taste is
questionable. 96 minutes. PG-13. (Cottonwood Stadium 16)
A grieving mother (Sarah Wayne Callies from “The Walking
Dead”) whose young son has been killed in a tragic accident
in India upsets the balance between life and death when she
opens an ancient door that serves as a mysterious portal
between two worlds. The usual loud noises and jump scares
ensue. 96 minutes. R. (Century Rio, Cottonwood Stadium 16)
Deadpool
Race
Terrence Jenkins (a host for “E! News” and “106 & Park”) and
Cassie Ventura (a hip hop singer and a dancer from Step Up
2: The Streets) star in this comedy-romance about a playboy
who begins a casual affair with a beautiful and mysterious
woman. Turns out he’s just trying to win a bet with his best
friends, who think if he stays with one woman for a whole
month, he’ll get attached. 96 minutes. R. (Opens Friday 3/11
at Century Rio)
Ryan Reynolds single-handedly tries to rescue his cult
superhero for the horribly botched 2009 film X-Men Origins:
Wolverine. He succeeds beyond the wildest dreams of most
comic book fans. In this self-mocking parody, he stars as a
brain-addled mercenary who gains incredible healing powers
but loses his good looks thanks to a little mad science. Boil it
down and the film is your basic “get revenge on the bad guy
and rescue the girlfriend” plot. But the third-wall-breaking
humor, raunchy sex and over-the-top violence make this a
shockingly fun “adult” action comedy. Reviewed in v25 i6.
108 minutes. R. (Rio Rancho Premiere Cinema, Grande 12
Albuquerque IMAX, Century 14 Downtown, Century Rio, Icon
Cinemas Albuquerque, Cottonwood Stadium 16)
Stephan James (Selma) stars as famed runner Jesse Owens,
thrust onto the world stage at the 1936 Olympics where he is
pitted against Adolf Hitler’s vision of Aryan supremacy. Jason
Sudeikis, Carice van Houten, Jeremy Irons and William Hurt
are among the less athletic cast members working for director
Stephen Hopkins (A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream
Child, Predator 2, Lost in Space). 134 minutes. PG-13.
(Century Rio)
Psycho-Pass: The Movie
Eddie the Eagle
The popular Japanese animated TV series gets a feature film
spin-off. In an authoritarian future dystopia, brain-scanning
Public Safety Bureau officer Akane Tsunemori is sent to a wartorn country to locate missing fellow crime-stopper Shinya
Kogami. In Japanese with English subtitles. 113 minutes.
Unrated. (Opens Friday 3/11 at Century Rio)
Taron Egerton (hot off Kingsmen: The Secret Service) and
Hugh Jackman star in this shaggy, inspirational tale based
(loosely, really) on the story of British ski jumper Eddie
Edwards, whose tenacity (and not his somewhat dodgy skill)
landed him a spot in the 1988 Calgary Olympics. It’s all
paint-by-numbers sporting biopic filmmaking, but Egerton
does his utmost to inhabit the dorky, lovably uncharismatic
skin of Eddie. It’s hard not to cheer a bit as Eddie follows his
extreme underdog dreams of Olympic infamy. Reviewed in
v25 i26. 105 minutes. PG-13. (Century 14 Downtown,
Century Rio, Cottonwood Stadium 16)
The Perfect Match
Sembene!
In 1952, dockworker and fifth-grade dropout Ousmane
Sembene dreamed of becoming a storyteller for a new Africa.
This vibrant documentary traces the unbelievable true story of
this “father” of Senegalese cinema, a self-taught novelist,
director and producer. The film’s producer/co-director Jason
Silverman will be at the theater in person to introduce the film
and participate in a post-film Q&A on Friday, March 11, and
Saturday, March 12. In English, French and Wolof with English
subtitles. 86 minutes. Unrated. (Opens Friday 3/11 at Guild
Cinema)
The Triplets of Belleville
This Oscar-nominated animated film is an exciting antipode
to the easy predictability of mainstream American cartoons.
This quirky, nearly silent comedy from France concerns a
tenacious granny, a fat dog and a morose grandson who has
been kidnapped during the famed Tour de France bicycle race
by some evil French mobsters. (You heard me.) What follows
is a wondrous, surprise-filled chase scene that borrows equal
elements of Buster Keaton, Jacques Tati and Blue Man Group.
Reviewed in v13 i5. 78 minutes. PG-13. (Saturday 3/12 at
Guild Cinema)
The Young Messiah
Sean Bean stars (as a Roman named Severus) in this
speculative religious drama told from the perspective of Jesus
Christ, age . It’s based on the novel Christ the Lord: Out of
Egypt by Anne Rice, who traded vampires for Catholicism
about 10 years ago. It’s directed by Iranian-American
filmmaker Cyrus Nowrasteh (The Stoning of Soraya M.).
Newcomer Adam Greaves-Neal is our prepubescent Jesus.
111 minutes. PG-13. (Opens Thursday 3/10 at Grande 12

STILL PLAYING
The 5th Wave
Musician Cat Power narrates this documentary covering Janis
Joplin’s evolution from small-town Texas rebel to rock icon.
Letters that Joplin wrote to friends, family and collaborators
over the years form the basis of the film’s narrative. And there
are plenty of tunes to savor. 105 minutes. Unrated. (Opens
Tuesday 3/15 at Guild Cinema)
Unable to decide on a single disaster on which to end the
world, this teen-lit-inspired sci-fi flick finds a plucky teenage
girl (Chloë Grace Moretz) facing down apocalyptic
electromagnetic pulses, tidal waves, zombie plagues and
alien invasions. Naturally, since this is aimed at today’s young
adults, our heroine must not only save the Earth but decide
between two cute boys (Nick Robinson, Alex Roe). Don’t hold
your breath for a sequel. 112 minutes. PG-13. (Cottonwood
Stadium 16)
Ben Affleck’s estranged wife Jennifer Garner stars in this faithbased “true story” about a little girl with a rare digestive
disorder who fell out of a tree and subsequently—according to
the book her mother wrote, anyway—went to Heaven and met
Jesus. Also, she was cured of her disease. If you paid to see
that other “kid meets Jesus” film Heaven Is For Real, the
producers of this one want your money as well. 99 minutes.

Egyptian mythology gets the CGI-heavy, Clash of the Titansesque treatment in this epically overdesigned action flick by
Alex Proyas (The Crow, Dark City). Scottish actor Gerard Butler
plays Set, the ancient Egyptian god of the darkness, which
should tell you where this is going. 127 minutes. PG-13. (Rio

How to Be Single
Dakota Johnson, Rebel Wilson, Leslie Mann and Damon
Wayans Jr. are among the cast of this semi-raunchy ensemble
rom-com about a bunch of New York lonely hearts looking for
love and learning to do without. Based on the book by Liz
Tuccillo. 110 minutes. R. (Century Rio, Cottonwood Stadium

The Boy and the Beast
From Japanese director Mamoru Hosoda (Wolf Children,
Summer Wars) comes this animated film about a young
orphan living on the streets of Shibuya who stumbles into an
alternate universe populated by intelligent beasts. There, he
befriends a rough-around-the-edges warrior beast who
teaches him how to use his strength and courage. 119
minutes. PG-13. (Century Rio)
There’s a surprising amount of life and laughter left in this
lovable series. Jack Black is back as the roly-poly panda with
the mad martial arts skills. This time around he’s stuck
between his adoptive father (James Hong as a gruff but loving
goose) and his biological dad (Bryan Cranston, in fuzzy
panda mode). Can he figure out who he is in time to defeat
an evil yak turning kung fu masters into stone-faced slaves?
Reviewed in v25 i4. 95 minutes. PG. (Rio Rancho Premiere

The Revenant
After a brief flirtation with humor in Birdman or (The
Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) filmmaker Alejandro
González Iñárritu returns to the painfully grim style of his early
films (Amores Perros, 21 Grams, Babel, Biutiful). Leonardo
DiCaprio plays a frontiersman leading a fur-trapping
expedition in 1820 who is abandoned and betrayed by the
men who hired him. What follows is an extremely brutal tale
of survival and (ultimately) revenge. It’s extravagantly visual
and hard to look away from—but rather punishing. 156
minutes. R. (Rio Rancho Premiere Cinema, Century 14
Downtown, Century Rio, Cottonwood Stadium 16)
Ride Along 2
Ice Cube and Kevin Hart continue to do their best to remake
48 Hrs., Beverly Hills Cop, Bad Boys, Rush Hour—basically
every buddy cop comedy since 1982. Here cop Cube and
annoying future brother-in-law Hart head to Miami to bust an
evil drug dealer because ... premise. 101 minutes. PG-13.
(Century Rio, Grande 12 Albuquerque IMAX)
Risen
Joseph Fiennes (Shakespeare in Love) and Tom Felton
(Malfoy in the Harry Potter series) headline this Biblical epic
following the story of Christ’s Resurrection. It’s told almost as
an “X-Files”-ish thriller with Fiennes and Felton cast as a pair
of Roman soldiers tasked with hunting down the missing
body of the alleged Messiah. This faith-based historical drama
comes from the makers of such church-friendly fare as Soul
Surfer, Courageous and War Room. 107 minutes. PG-13.

Spotlight
Actor/director Tom McCarthy (The Station Agent, The Visitor)
writes and directs this serious, sweeping true story about how
Boston Globe reporters uncovered a massive scandal of child
molestation and cover-up within the local Catholic
Archdiocese. This journalistic procedural lays as much blame
on the media as the churches. The big cast (Mark Ruffalo,
Michael Keaton, Rachel McAdams, Liev Schreiber, John
Slattery, Stanley Tucci) is in rare form, and the muckraking
script is gripping (if a bit prosaic). 128 minutes. R. (Century
Rio, Century 14 Downtown)
Star Wars: The Force Awakens
The Lady in the Van
This cute ’n’ cozy comedy is based on Alan Bennett’s 1989
play—which was, in turn, based on something that actually
happened to him. For 15 years a cranky homeless woman
lived in a van in Bennett’s driveway. Here, Dame Maggie Smith
stars as the titular “lady,” Miss Shepherd. Alex Jennings (The
Queen, Babel) plays Bennett, the flummoxed intellectual who
develops a strange kinship with his course, opinionated semihouseguest. The film was shot in the actual house in Camden
Town where it took place, giving it a distinctly British veracity.
104 minutes. PG-13. (Century 14 Downtown)
London Has Fallen
Having saved the American president (Aaron Eckhart) from
evil terrorists attacking the White House in 2013’s Olympus
Has Fallen, tough-guy Secret Service agent Mike Banning
(Gerard Butler) is prevailed upon to save him once again
again from a slightly different bunch of evil terrorists. This time
the action takes place in London—so, you know, change of
scenery. 99 minutes. R. (Grande 12 Albuquerque IMAX, Rio

It’s been 30 years since the Empire was crushed in Return of
the Jedi. But something evil has risen from the ashes, forcing
a new generation of heroes (John Boyega and Daisy Ridley
among them) to team up with legendary freedom fighters
Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Princess Leia (Mark Hamill,
Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher, returning for another goaround). J.J. Abrams ( “Lost,” Star Trek Into Darkness) directs
this first new Star Wars film in 10 years. It’s littered (both
literally and figuratively) with references to the original film. By
mirroring the Star Wars: Episode IV—A New Hope story almost
beat-for-beat, the film lacks a level of narrative surprise. But
it’s smartly nostalgic and a hell of a lot of fun to watch—which
is something Episodes I, II and III completely forgot. 140
minutes. PG-13. (Rio Rancho Premiere Cinema, Century Rio)
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
A journalist, fed up with her life, runs off to war-torn
Afghanistan and Pakistan to cover Operation Enduring

FILM | CAPSULES
The Witch
This moody, psychological and spiritual shocker is better
classified as a supernatural drama than a horror film. The
scares are slow in coming in this tale of a pilgrim family exiled
from their Puritan community, circa 1630, and forced to live
on the edge of a very forbidding forest. When crops begin to
fail and a baby vanishes, the various family members are
quick to find blame—either in each other, or in a vague
satanic threat that may or may not exist in the woods. Writerdirector Robert Eggers allegedly took much of his dialogue
from transcripts of actual New England witch trials. The tone
of primordial doom and gloom is palpable, but the film loses
some steam in abandoning its metaphorical horrors for more
concrete boogeymen. Reviewed in v25 i7. 90 minutes. R.

Zoolander 2
Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson return as dimwitted supermodels
Derek and Hansel—who are lured back into the modeling

relegate the barrier-busting bunny to meter maid duty. But
when a series of mysterious disappearances rocks the city,
she teams with a self-serving con man of a fox (Jason

(racism, sexism) while still being a colorful, entertaining
Disney romp. Reviewed in v25 i9. 108 minutes. PG. (Grande

Shoulder Voices
Concision and Concurrence
A cray collection of upcoming concerts
BY AUGUST MARCH
his week, I came up with an improved
methodology for letting Albuquerque
audiences in on the mostly likely to be
fantastic shows coming to the Duke City. I
decided to be telgraphic, consise. On weeks
like this, when there’re so many excellent
musical choices in these parts, that’s easy; we’ll
see how the formula holds up later on in the
year when my best choices are a set by Kansas
at one of the casinos or a reunion show of
Rage Against Martin Sheen at whatever
business is filling the void at a location
formerly occupied by the Atomic Cantina.
T
Friday
Contrary to published reports, David Bowie is
not dead. He lives on through the life and
work of Shoulder Voices, the glittery rock
project of former Unit 7 Drain balla Little
Bobby Tucker. A Burque music community
stalwart of some sparkling note, Tucker
recently penned a courageous letter to
Hizzoner Mayor Berry regarding conditions at
Burque’s BioPark. Besides social activist,
Tucker will be demonstrating one of his other
intensely human personas—Bowie
demonstrating the essence of Euro-PoMo
rocanrol grandeur—at the Young Americans
tribute to the Thin White Duke. This
glamorous all-ages show takes place at the CoOp (415 Central NW) on Friday, March 11, at
7pm and also features the elvish, otherworldly
talents of Sweet Nothin, Duke City Riots
and Apricity. For just $12, you too can freak
out in a moonage daydream. Fancy dress
encouraged.
Friday Part II
Sander van Dijck, otherwise known as San
Holo, relies on Apple’s Logic Pro to compose
and perform a viscous variant of EDM. The
Dutch composer and producer’s work is based
in breakbeat rhythmics with elements of the
strangely alluring booty bass found in nascent
Miami hip-hop recordings. That saucy
combination of sounds is mixed up
mysteriously with the trappings of trap music.
It’s kinda mind blowing when you think about
it: 2 Live Crew combined with Zaytoven and
filtered through mid-twenty-first century
technology by the visionary mind of a
continental wunderkind. Anywho, San Holo
lays down an 18+ rave-up at the Historic El
Rey Theater (622 Central SW) on Friday,
March 11, at 9pm. $5 and a distinct interest in
the swirling light of primal experience gets one
through the doors.
Saturday
Back in September I had the fine and fresh
opportunity to check out New Mexican
madman Larry Goodell and some notably
Falstaffian Chicano poet (JK it was my
brother) reading at a joint in Barelas called
The Tannex (1417 Fourth Street SW). Damn,
I thought to myself, this is a great venue. As
sure as eggs are eggs, The Tannex offers some
of this city’s most powerful and provocative
performances by local and touring artists
encompassing a myriad of genres. Burqueña
composers and experimentalists Lady
Uranium, Anna Mall, Star Canyon (Ceciia
McKinnon) and Sing Down the Moon are
scheduled to perform there on Saturday,
March 12. Taken as separate aesthetic entities,
each of the musicians on the evening’s
program represent different aspects of Burque’s
re-blossoming electronic realm, from
Uranium’s plangent pop sensibilities to Mall’s
coolly complex discourse and Star Canyon’s
folk-ambient goth analytics. The music begins
at 7pm; bring $5 to get in and dress warmly
besides; Tannex can be chilly in late winter.
This Saturday’s one of those nights that’s so
caked with the mud of musical genius that I’m
going to have a hard time wiping off the
windshield to get a clear view of the splatter’s
impending significance. Suffice to say the
town rocks. Brevity being the soul of wit,
here’re the briefest of glimpses of other heady
destinations to consider on Saturday, March
12:
Saturday Part II
Bigawatt, the expansively avant-garde musical
project of Marisa DeMarco is one of several
Albuquerque-based badass experimental
ensembles performing at the Albuquerque
Center for Peace and Justice (202 Harvard
SE) for free and for all ages on March 12, at
7:30pm.
Saturday Part III
Also on March 12, AMP concerts manifests
it’s worldwide vision of musical expression at
the Simms Center for the Performing Arts
(6400 Wyoming NE) with a recital by
Hawaiian ukulele virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro,
a musician who combines traditional elements
with classical and rocanrol influenced
technique. Admission ranges between $27-38
for this 7:30pm island idyll.
Saturday Part IV
Sister (407 Central NW) gets soulful,
saturated and sly on Saturday, March 12, with
the sounds of local Latin fusion proponents
Baracutanga, Albuquerque’s ascendant metafolkies Cactus Tractor and neo-soul hipsters
Hello Dollface, a surprisingly evocative duo
from Colorado. This 21+ show costs $10 and
starts at 9pm.
Mountain Blood Fest III
If none of the above lights a breathy, beautiful
and boundless fire in your brain’s musical
control center then you may be ripe for a visit
to Mountain Blood Fest III: All Mountains
Must Crumble. That’s the name of the
completely cray and awesomely awesome DIY
music festival to be held between March 11
and 13 in various venues around the city and
in the surrounding hills. Originally an event
created by and made real by the mysterious
and now dissipated Goathead Record
Collective, this year’s revisioned epic includes
all-ages performances at Duke City
Soundstage (2013 Ridgecrest SE). On Friday
night, March 11, punk rockers Weedrat and
Radio Flyer, a band from Tejas take the stage
at 7pm; the Saturday night, March 12, 7pm
iteration of the festival features a reunion set
by Arroyo Deathmatch and the folk metal
meandering of Nevada’s Firewater Folklore
among other esoteric and engaging acts. The
completely huge and blazing schedule of
events and bands (30+) as well as a list of
venues and ticket information is available at:

SONIC REDUCER
BY GEOFFREY PLANT
Katherine
Farnham
Music
Calendar
Vintage
(Voice Inside Records)
THURSDAY MARCH 10
Not sure what to make of
this one. Hey, how about a
stage name. Farnham
sounds like someone that
fell off the turnip truck. Parts of Vintage
sound like the soundtrack to an upbeat Gay
Pride event while other songs have a ’70s
soul vibe. Overall, there’s an emulation of the
“adult contemporary” music of the ‘80s.
Occasionally multi-language vocals, a sometimes melancholy tilt to the lyrics (mostly love
songs), saxophone accents and make-outmusic bass and drums drop her squarely in
what we music critics call the “vintage urban
late night love music” genre. Farnham has a
wonderful soul-singer voice that ranges from
Aretha to Sade in character. In fact many of
these tunes are very much in the style of the
skinny Ms. Adu. You know when Barry White’s
voice is just making her giggle? Try throwing
Vintage on. Better yet, just go with Sade from
the get go.
Living Hour
Living Hour
(Lefse)
The music of Canadian
shoegaze/dream-pop
group, Living Hour, is
apparently inspired by the
big blue skies—sound
familiar?—above their hometown of Winnipeg,
Manitoba. Living Hour’s music does reflect the
slower pace and sense of possibility that
comes with big horizons, uncloudy days and
endless landscapes. The big, enveloping
sound this quintet achieves through their
slow, droney rhythms, heavy vibrato guitar
and lots of reverb is evidence that the group is
more than the sum of its parts. Vocalist
Samantha Sarty is an aural dead ringer for Cat
Power’s Chan Marshall and lyrics about
staring at the sun and alien visitors is the
cherry on top of the biggest banana split ever.
If you like understated guitar solos that sound
like sunsets, Living Hour’s debut album is
worth checking out.
Adult Books
Running from the
Blows
(Lolipop Records/Burger
Records)
Adult Books’ second
release—and first LP—is a
nice, tight package of garage-pop numbers
that feature the group still playing straight-up
punk rock, but now with an even poppier bent.
While the band’s evolution means songs like
“Firewalking” sound less like FIDLAR and
more like The Cure, Running from the Blows
should please old and new fans alike. Adult
Books’ overall character is still so very
California punk that the only aspect of this
album that might confuse original fans is the
ubiquitous New Order “Age of Consent” guitar
licks and the odd tune that sounds like an ’80s
MTV, new wave pop hit. It’s all good though
bro, because Adult Books hasn’t departed
from their faster, harder sound, they just got
better at playing and writing songs. Melodic
sing-alongs like “Silver Lake Goths,”
“Suburban Girlfriend” and “Running From the
Blows” confirm this is the sound of today’s
California punk music. a

WEEKLY ALIBI
MARCH 10-16, 2016
ARIES (March 21-April 19): “He in his madness prays
for storms, and dreams that storms will bring him
peace,” wrote Leo Tolstoy in his novella The Death of
Ivan Ilych. The weird thing is, Aries, that this
seemingly crazy strategy might actually work for you
in the coming days. The storms you pray for, the
tempests you activate through the power of your
longing, could work marvels. They might clear away
the emotional congestion, zap the angst, and usher
you into a period of dynamic peace. So I say: Dare to
be gusty and blustery and turbulent.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Quoting poet W. H.
Auden, author Maura Kelly says there are two kinds
of poets: argument-makers and beauty-makers. I
think that’s an interesting way to categorize all
humans, not just poets. Which are you? Even if you
usually tend to be more of an argument-maker, I urge
you to be an intense beauty-maker in the next few
weeks. And if you’re already a pretty good beautymaker, I challenge you to become, at least
temporarily, a great beauty-maker. One more thing:
As much as possible, until April 1, choose beautymakers as your companions.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): To have any hope of
becoming an expert in your chosen field, you’ve got to
labor for at least 10,000 hours to develop the
necessary skills—the equivalent of 30 hours a week
for six and a half years. But according to author
William Deresiewicz, many young graphic designers
no longer abide by that rule. They regard it as more
essential to cultivate a network of connections than
to perfect their artistic mastery. Getting 10,000
contacts is their priority, not working 10,000 hours.
But I advise you not to use that approach in the
coming months, Gemini. According to my reading of
the astrological omens, you will be better served by
improving what you do rather than by increasing how
many people you know.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): “I sit before flowers,
hoping they will train me in the art of opening up,”
says poet Shane Koyczan. “I stand on mountain tops
believing that avalanches will teach me to let go.” I
recommend his strategy to you in the coming weeks,
Cancerian. Put yourself in the presence of natural
forces that will inspire you to do what you need to do.
Seek the companionship of people and animals whose
wisdom and style you want to absorb. Be sufficiently
humble to learn from the whole wide world through
the art of imitation.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The marathon is a longdistance footrace with an official length of over 26
miles. Adults who are physically fit and well-trained
can finish the course in five hours. But I want to call
your attention to a much longer running event: the
Self-Transcendence 3,100-Mile Race. It begins every
June in Queens, a borough of New York, and lasts
until August. Those who participate do 3,100 miles’
worth of laps around a single city block, or about 100
laps per day. I think that this is an apt metaphor for
the work you now have ahead of you. You must cover
a lot of ground as you accomplish a big project, but
without traveling far and wide. Your task is to be
dogged and persistent as you do a little at a time,
never risking exhaustion, always pacing yourself.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In old Vietnamese
folklore, croaking frogs were a negative symbol. They
were thought to resemble dull teachers who go on
and on with their boring and pointless lectures. But in
many other cultures, frogs have been symbols of
regeneration and resurrection due to the dramatic
transformations they make from egg to tadpole to
full-grown adult. In ancient India, choruses of croaks
were a sign of winter’s end, when spring rains arrived
to fertilize the earth and bestow a promise of the
growth to come. I suspect that the frog will be one of
your emblems in the coming weeks, Virgo—for all of
the above reasons. Your task is to overcome the
boring stories and messages so as to accomplish your
lively transformations.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “Your anger is a gift.” So
proclaims musician and activist Zack de la Rocha,
singer in the band Rage Against the Machine. That
rob brezsny
statement is true for him on at least two levels. His
fury about the systemic corruption that infects
American politics has roused him to create many
successful songs and enabled him to earn a very good
living. I don’t think anger is always a gift for all of us,
however. Too often, especially when it’s motivated by
petty issues, it’s a self-indulgent waste of energy that
can literally make us sick. Having said that, I do
suspect that your anger in the coming week will be
more like de la Rocha’s: productive, clarifying, healthy.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Even now, all possible
feelings do not yet exist,” says novelist Nicole Krauss.
In the coming weeks, I suspect you will provide vivid
evidence of her declaration, Scorpio. You may
generate an unprecedented number of novel
emotions—complex flutters and flows and gyrations
that have never before been experienced by anyone
in the history of civilization. I think it’s important that
you acknowledge and celebrate them as being
unique—that you refrain from comparing them to
feelings you’ve had in the past or feelings that other
people have had. To harvest their full blessing, treat
them as marvelous mysteries.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Look at yourself
then,” advised author Ray Bradbury. “Consider
everything you have fed yourself over the years. Was
it a banquet or a starvation diet?” He wasn’t talking
about literal food. He was referring to the experiences
you provide yourself with, to the people you bring
into your life, to the sights and sounds and ideas you
allow to pour into your precious imagination. Now
would be an excellent time to take inventory of this
essential question, Sagittarius. And if you find there is
anything lacking in what you feed yourself, make
changes!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): According to a
report in the journal Science, most of us devote half of
our waking time to thinking about something besides
the activity we’re actually engaged in. We seem to
love to ruminate about what used to be and what
might have been and what could possibly be. Would
you consider reducing that amount in the next 15
days, Capricorn? If you can manage to cut it down
even a little, I bet you will accomplish small feats of
magic that stabilize and invigorate your future. Not
only that: You will feel stronger and smarter. You’ll
have more energy. You’ll have an excellent chance to
form an enduring habit of staying more focused on
the here and now.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): One of the legal
financial scams that shattered the world economy in
2008 was a product called a Collateralized Debt
Obligation Squared. It was sold widely, even though
noted economist Ha-Joon Chang says that potential
buyers had to read a billion pages of documents if
they hoped to understand it. In the coming weeks, I
think it’s crucial that you Aquarians avoid getting
involved with stuff like that—with anything or anyone
requiring such vast amounts of homework. If it’s too
complex to evaluate accurately, stay uncommitted, at
least for now.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “I wish I knew what I
desire,” wrote Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish,
born under the sign of Pisces. “I wish I knew! I wish I
knew!” If he were still alive today, I would have very
good news for him, as I do for all of you Pisceans
reading this horoscope. The coming weeks will be one
of the best times ever—EVER!—for figuring out what
exactly it is you desire. Not just what your ego yearns
for. Not just what your body longs for. I’m talking
about the whole shebang. You now have the power to
home in on and identify what your ego, your body,
your heart and your soul want more than anything
else in this life.

CURIOUS AND CAPTIVATED BY A BOY
I’ve seen you on the bus and I just saw you this evening
(March 3rd) at around 7pm near the library Downtown.
You have shoulder length blonde hair and a demeanor
that I’m helplessly drawn to. I’m completely intrigued and
curious. I have a gnawing sense of wonderment. Who are
you? A beautiful mystery?
IMMEASURABLY, IRRETRIEVABLY,
INTENSELY …
I remain lost in longing limerence for you. I take heart in
all the signs that you’re still here.
BEST CASHIER
Mesmerizing cashier, your name starts with a D. I’m
always in there when we are goofing on some customers
it’s always fun! You are always so cool to everyone and
I’m diggin’ you still since I moved here from Texas. Wanna
know you better!
GREAT SMILE !
Hey, we met at our doctor’s office yesterday morning,
2/17. I didn’t get your ph#. Wish I had! I enjoyed meeting
and chatting with you (as brief as it was). Would you like
meeting up again to chat more and get to know one
another better? You got a great smile bud. I’d like to see
it again. Let me know. Post your thoughts here on “I
SAW YOU”. I will be checking it for your response. G.S.
CURIOUS
Hey there, saw you this Wednesday morning (2/16) at
Phillips 66 on Montgomery and Louisiana and thought
you were pretty. You, female blondish, brown hair, nose
ring. Me, tall white guy with beanie and San Francisco
jacket. Smiled at each other and joked about wishing it
was Friday. Wish I would of got your name and number.
Just curious if you’re seeing anyone and if not, if you
would be interested in hanging out sometime.
