Speaking of Wong Kar Wai, turns out the Brattle is running a Wong Kar Wai retrospective in April. They're showing everything but 2046. Note that Ashes of Time, the only Wong Kar Wai movie unavailable on DVD in the US (OK, yes, but Sony seems to have the rights to 2046 and it'll be out by the end of this year, I bet) is playing on Sunday, April 10th.

OK, so Guckert got his press pass as a representative of GOPUSA. Apparently GOPUSA is not linked to the Republican Party and thus their reporters can get credentials. Fair enough; I'm inclined to think that we want fairly lax standards for who can get into the press room and ask questions. More people asking questions is good.
However, if The Raw Story and BuzzFlash and, hey, even Daily Kos aren't currently applying for daily press passes under the excitingly loose guidelines for accreditation -- well, I don't know what they're waiting for.
