About Me

“I have a very simple definition of an artist. The artist is someone who pays attention and reports back.” – James Benning

Hello. My name is Roger. I’m 25. I have a mix of good taste and bad taste, which together I refer to as “indifferent taste.” I was born and raised in Queens, but since the age of 17 I’ve essentially drifted around and lived in a few different places along the east coast. I have a hard time staying in one place for a long period of time, be it a city or a chair.

I’m a filmmaker. My most recent short “Introducing: Bobby.” won the Grand Jury Award at the American Film Institute’s annual festival (AFI Fest 2012) in Hollywood and was an official selection of SXSW 2013. I am currently developing a feature length film.

Star Trek Into Darkness

I've never seen anything Star Trek related before this so I really had no idea what to expect. Though it did shamelessly follow the "How To Stay Within The Box" book like some sort of scripture, the color scheme and set designs were unusually badass. Really loved the interiors of the ships and that red forest in the intro. This thing could have been down right dreamy if put in the hands of a different editor.

You inspired me to seek Hanak's companion piece - Private Lives (Súkromné Životy, 1990), which I found and will up on KG. You may be interested as it's also kinda "silence"-based; a film between two stepsisters (one, an actress, the other, a psychologist) unable to speak and communicate with each other, and who struggle to become closer emotionally. With the film covering the day-to-day problems, immediate situations, and feelings. Also, it's a valuable expression of private life in a totalitarian society. Hopefully, I can get some subs! But, thanks for the inspiration!

I tip my hat to Reygadas for doing something unusual, but that’s where my praise stops for this thing.

I’ve always wondered if Reygadas has even seen a film other than those of Tarkovsky. Frankly…  read review

Downhill Racer

This is a superlative example of American New Wave and a great companion piece to “Two-Lane Blacktop.” Minimal in plot, it’s mainly a well-composed portrait of a reckless, brash, narcissistic but ultimately…  read review

Pure eye-candy in the form of a sometimes obnoxious but never the less captivating romance. Despite a certain air of smugness that I detect while watching this, I generally enjoy it. As one of the…  read review

Who doesn’t have some type of sexual tendency and / or infatuation that they don’t feel entirely comfortable with? Perhaps the habits aren’t as extreme as the condition depicted in this film, but much…  read review
