In our April 3 issue, we profiled Rob Greenfield, the Orlando-based environmental activist who’s growing or foraging everything he eats for a year. Since Nov. 11, every crumb he’s consumed has been harvested from his garden or one of the community gardens he’s created, or foraged from Orlando’s urban center or the Florida coast.

On April 3, we reported that the Pennsylvaniabased convenience store Wawa wants to make its presence in Florida even more prominent. The Sunshine State is already home to Wawa’s own cold brew coffee ice cream flavor, and the chain even has its own 8 million-gallon oil barge to serve Floridians’ needs for fossil fuel. And now, Wawa, which operates over 800 stores in six states, “expects Florida … to surpass each state by the end of 2021,” according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

@Garrison Green I love people like this. What a great person to have in our community! @Michael Davis Because I can quit my job to become a hunter-gatherer-farmer.

Orlando Police officer suspended for excessive use of force, state lawmakers want to limit your medical marijuana highs, and other news you may have missed last week. »

Orlando Police officer suspended after kicking 13-year-old boy in the chest: Orlando Police Officer Neal Chase used an excessive amount of

force when he kicked a 13-year-old boy in the chest during an arrest in May 2018, documents show. Chase was suspended for 16 hours in June 2018 after the probe found that his actions weren’t in compliance with department policy. Footage from another officer’s body camera and a review of the reports from the incident prompted the investigation. The investigators write that the boy was in “a position of submission” when he was kicked in the chest.

Orlando is the fifth most ‘rent-burdened’ U.S. city: The

Ocala mayor accused of being involved with KKK proclaims April 26 Confederate Memorial Day: Last week, Ocala Mayor Kent

Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford metro came in high on a report released by governmentsponsored mortgage lender Freddie Mac ranking the nation’s top 20 rent-burdened metro areas – areas whose residents spend more than 30 percent of total income on housing. Miami is ranked as the most rent-burdened city in the U.S., followed by San Diego, Los Angeles, New York and Orlando. Two other Florida cities, Tampa and Jacksonville, came in at No. 7 and No. 25 respectively on the list.

Guinn, who’s spent the last four years denying allegations that he’s tied to the KKK, proclaimed April 26 “Confederate Memorial Day” – a day that is already designated a legal holiday in Florida. Guinn, Ocala’s mayor since 2011, said his proclamation was about honoring Marion County veterans and that the Daughters of the Confederacy had requested the proclamation.

Florida House moves forward with plan to cap THC levels for smokable medical marijuana: Veterans would get free medical-marijuana

identification cards, the level of THC would be capped in smokable marijuana and it would be harder for sick children to get full-strength medical pot under a new House proposal. The legislation also would set limits on the potency of medical marijuana edibles and fast-track the state health department’s medical pot rule-making process. While the House bill would set what many consider a low cap of 10 percent on the level of THC in whole-flower smokable products, the daily amount of THC that would be permitted in edible products – 200 mg per day – is higher than what most patients would consume, experts say.

A man successfully swam all the way to the Lake Eola fountain: A man who had his mind set on going for a swim in Lake Eola last week was pulled from the water by the Orlando Fire Department diver team. The man was first reported around 1 p.m. Sunday. This isn’t the first time someone has made it to the fountain. In 2017, a man who stole a swan boat and marooned himself on the fountain told police he ingested a large quantity of MDMA and wanted to be with the swans.

Florida Republicans push forward plan to make ex-felons pay fees before restoring voting rights: Republican state Rep. James Grant has

crafted a bill that has infuriated advocates of the amendment and caused hundreds of phone calls and emails to legislators urging them to kill the proposal. Voter-approved Amendment 4 automatically restored voting rights to felons “who have completed all terms of their sentence, including parole or probation” and excluded people “convicted of murder or a felony sexual offense.” But under the House proposal, felons would have to pay all court fees, jail fees, monitoring fees, fines and restitution to be eligible for the “automatic” vote restoration. orlandoweekly.com

MERRITT ANNE GREENE AND ALLAN WHITEHEAD IN THE GOAT, OR WHO IS SYLVIA? | PHOTO BY MARCO DIGEORGE

Theater lovers are used to the

idea that art should influence – and sometimes even upend – our opinions on social and political issues, but we get twitchy when that proposition is turned around. By now, I’ve become accustomed to Theater on the Edge – the storefront stage in south Orlando associated with Truthful Acting Studios – making me confront challenging issues with their hard-hitting, high-intensity productions. But I wasn’t prepared for their take on Edward Albee’s The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia?, to make me reconsider a show, and a playwright, that I thought I knew inside out. In college I became obsessed with the acidic satires of Edward Albee, especially his groundbreaking 1958 one-act The Zoo Story, which was the first show I ever directed. So, when The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia? opened on Broadway in 2002, I eagerly attended Albee’s caustic comeback. That initial production starred film actor Bill Pullman as Martin Gray, a Pritzker-winning architect at the peak of his career who has it all: an adoring wife, Stevie (created by Mercedes Ruehl); a loving teenage son, Billy; a gorgeous home filled with fine art; and [spoiler alert] a four-legged mistress whom he keeps in a barn. The supposedly sophisticated Manhattan audience I first experienced the show with visibly squirmed at Albee’s sympathetic treatment of bestiality, which (along with necrophilia and pedophilia) is among our society’s last unforgivable sins. But I reveled in the author’s taboo-busting bravery, and sympathized with the protagonist’s compulsion to follow his heart in defiance of conventional morality. In fact, I was so enamored of the show that I spent the next decade looking for an opportunity to bring it to Orlando, and finally co-produced it at the Shakes in 2014 through the Empty Spaces Theatre Co., with John DiDonna and Marty Stonerock in the leading roles. Half a decade later, producer-director

The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia? is the latest show to face a reassessment in the wake of the #MeToo movement. Marco DiGeorge has revived the play with a version that’s made me radically rethink what I previously regarded as a modern classic. The dialogue – which is peppered with classical allusions amid the venomous witticisms and perverse poetry – is as literate as ever, but a series of aesthetic decisions put a spin on the script, starting with the production design. Other productions of the play have employed abstracted set designs to emphasize the absurdist theatricality of the story, softening its earthier aspects. Designer Samantha DiGeorge’s immaculate upscale living room environment, like her earlier hyperrealistic sets, is realistically grounded to the smallest detail, which makes the shattering later scenes excruciatingly gut-churning. The second element is the casting. As Stevie, Merritt Anne Greene can smash plates and swig whiskey with the best of them; I’d love to see her as Martha in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf ?. Theater on the Edge regular Adam Minossora pours his heart into making Billy – a bystander to his parents’ marital meltdown – more than just a hormone-addled hysteric. However, leading actor Allan Whitehead, who was excellent in the theater’s previous productions of Proof and Orphans, is cast against type as Martin, who is described (and usually played by) a conventionally attractive man in the prime of his life. Here, with his comically obvious comb-over and too-wide tie, he seems more like a second-rate politician than a successful architect, and his

absent-mindedness in the opening scene comes across as early-stage Alzheimer’s rather than stress-induced distraction. Equally impactful is Mark Anthony Kelly’s presence as Martin’s confidant, Ross Tuttle. It’s a thin role that mostly serves as a conduit for Martin’s confessions, but Kelly’s barely disguised disgust makes him the audience’s surrogate. And by casting the role as African American (even though race is never referred to) it implicitly raises issues of white privilege around Martin’s pleas for tolerance. Indeed, that question is further invoked by the third aspect of this production: its direction. I’ve praised DiGeorge’s Meisnercentered style before for its energy and immediacy, but this time it results in virtually nonstop yelling, from the broadly farcical opening to the melodramatic final blackout. Not only does this leave the actors with nowhere to build toward (and the viewer with aching eardrums), but it actively extinguished any empathy I felt for Martin. Instead of finding myself perversely rooting for his pursuit of unconventional love, this time the scales were lifted from my eyes, and I could barely muster pity for this homophobic mansplaining rapist who constantly shouts down those around him with demands that they listen to him, while never acknowledging the validity of anyone’s emotions but his own. To be honest, I’ve been cooling on Albee’s work for years, ever since his irrationally abusive reaction to Peg O’Keef’s brilliant staging of The Zoo Story & The Sandbox led to her leaving Rollins College, but this Who Is Sylvia may have finally gotten my goat. It’s a bit of a shock to walk into a play expecting a reunion with one of your favorite radical antiheroes, only to emerge realizing that his previously inspiring progressivism was really just self-serving justification for pursuing personal pleasure at all cost. I’m not about to throw away my collection of Albee scripts quite yet, but in this era of Trump and Biden, I’m a lot less interested in plays premised around arguing that powerful white men should be able to put their body parts wherever they please. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

East Orlando’s BaanChan Thai dishes hits for both intrepid and guarded diners alike BY FAIYAZ KARA

hai cuisine is in a bit of a rut in this city. Seems like every strip-mall Siamese joint from Longwood to Lake Nona can deliver half-decent servings of the standards – pad thai, pad see ew, tom yum goong, chili jam, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera – much to the seeming delight of Orlandoans who clearly crave (and rave about) the same ol’ same ol’. You have to respect a chef like Dylan Eitharong of Bangrak Thai Street Kitchen, who’s made it a point to stir it up by showcasing the regional and, sometimes, religious variants of Thai cuisine not often seen at the average neighborhood restaurant. And he does so while adhering to a staunch ethic of, yes I’m going to say it, authenticity. I don’t know of any other local outfit making curry pastes from scratch or incorporating ingredients they’ve smuggled out of Isaan and Chiang Mai in fake Supreme fanny packs, but that’s the sort of passionately made Thai cuisine we need more of. Granted, Bangrak is a weekly pop-up (we anxiously await a permanent locale) and not the subject of this week’s review. That honor goes to BaanChan Thai, an eatery serving the blighted scapes of east Orlando and one whose menu items offer a bit of allure to the intrepid diner of today: items like seasoned quail eggs fried ($5.50)

in an aebleskiver-like pan called a khanon krok; “Thai heaven beef” ($4.50), or fried jerky, served with a sweet chili sauce; and a ramen ($12) with crisp slivers of duck, soft-boiled egg and onions in a lemongrass broth. Tongue-blasting red hots hide in that gratifying and murky soup for an unmistakably Thai twist, and they’re hellish little buggers. It made the wait for our palliative Thai teas ($4) all the more insufferable and necessitated a brisk walk to the water station for a proper oral dousing. The issue on this visit was that the person taking our order was also the person responsible for making our tea and delivering our food. This is a fast-casual eatery, after all, where orders are placed at the front, a number is given, and food is brought to your table. When a queue formed, said person was, much like my blazing mouth, overwhelmed. But when the milky bev did finally arrive, it took just a few sips to normalize matters so that a helping of lightly battered softshell crab ($5.50) and veggie spring

rolls ($3) could be thoroughly enjoyed. A pineapple fried rice came highly touted, but the flavors just fell flat. “It’s a dull rice dish,” groaned my dining comrade, who proceeded to fleck a few spoonfuls of sriracha onto the curry-tinged kernels. That most Thai of dishes – pad thai ($9.50) – on the other hand, was pretty much faultless with a puckery tang of tamarind, fresh sprouts and chewy-perfect rice noodles. Of note were the sizable and scrummy fried head-on shrimp gracing those glistening noods. We finished with a seasonal and straightforward offering of mango sticky rice ($6), also puckery, of the less pleasurable sort, thanks to an astringent mango. The fruit was sweet, sure, but it came with a harsh bite. Not exactly the ending we’d hoped for, but it’s not like we left without an appreciation for what BaanChan had to offer. The dishes here present a step in the right direction, even if they’re still strides away from the Thai offerings found in other cities. It’s high time we make up that ground. Yes, Bangrak, I’m looking at you. fkara@orlandoweekly.com

Culinary convergence comes in the form of stuffed cabbage and grape leaves, while the chicken soup is a cure-all bowl of beauty. For the less adventurous, Italian dishes (think pedestrian pastas and pizzas) are also offered. Open daily. 1700 W. Sand Lake Road, 407-730-9190; $$

DOMU CHIBI

Waits can get long at this “quick casual” offshoot of the highly lauded Domu, but you’ll get legit bowls of ramen for under $10. Noodles aren’t made in house (they’re procured from the respected Sun Noodle) as they are at Domu’s flagship, but the broths and bases, like the 18-hour tonkotsu, certainly are. Rice bowls and smaller bites like gyoza and bravas fries are offered too. Open daily. 869 N. Alafaya Trail, 407-730-7260; $

MENAGERIE EATERY & BAR

From the folks who brought you the Stubborn Mule and RusTeak comes the

ORLANDO WEEKLY ● APRIL 10-16, 2019 ● orlandoweekly.com

Menagerie, an eclectic joint with an equally eclectic menu that criss-crosses international culinary boundaries. You’ll find everything from Taiwanese Night Market chicken to curried cauliflower served with pisco sour relish to fried cod crusted in Frosted Flakes. No, they don’t take things too seriously here. Closed Mondays and Tuesdays. Sunday brunch until 3 p.m. 101 S. Eola Drive, 407-601-5358; $$

THE RAMEN

This humble ramen joint by Suichi Tanida, the former chef at Epcot’s Mitsukoshi Restaurant, gives downtowners a healthy dose of traditional tonkotsu, shoyu and miso ramen. Don’t overlook gratifying donburi rice bowls or takoyaki. A handful of vegan options are offered as well. Closed Sunday. 486 N. Orange Ave., 407-2334801; $$

ZERO DEGREES

Fresh-fruit slushies, teas and coffee are this Cali-based chain’s signature offerings, but “Hispanic-Asian” food offerings make ideal accompaniments to such boffo iced bevs as mangonada and spicy watermelon. Chilotes – elotes topped with crushed Flamin’ Hot Cheetos and chicharrones – are as street as it gets, though popcorn chicken, wings and noodles keep things heated. 5282 W. Colonial Drive, 407-4874597; also 1700 W. Sand Lake Road, 407270-5164; $

BOLAY

Fast-casual joint in Lake Nona (with more outposts to come in Winter Park and UCF) lets guests build beautiful guilt-free and gluten-free bowls of deliciousness. Choose from nine different bases (everything from black rice and orange-basil quinoa to Asian sweet potato noodles and kale), layer on cooked veggies like ginger broccoli and smoky cauliflower, add some meat, other add-ons and a sauce, and have at it. Meats, btw, don’t suffer from the over-charring so often found at Chipotle. 12711 Narcoossee Road, 407-627-1990; $

LA BOUCHERIE

French steakhouse chain makes its U.S. debut inside the Bay Hill Plaza, offering fare a cut above Outback, but not quite the level of a Ruth’s Chris. Steaks, naturally, are the focus, including cuts like rump steak, top sirloin and various ground steaks. The “maquignon” – a burger with hashbrowns acting as buns – is an ideal lunchtime option. For starters, consider escargots, foie gras or a seasonal terrine. For the steakaverse, traditional preparations of pot au feu and blanquette de veau will give you all the French feels. There are 12 dessert options to choose from. 7625 Turkey Lake Road, 407-930-1708; $$$

À LA CART

Inviting Milk District food truck park hosts five food trucks at an open-air pavilion with 15 rotating taps, surrounding a square patch of faux grass that acts as an informal beer garden. Brazilian steak, poke and Viet-Korean fare are offered every day, with Brazilian-style empanadas and SwedeDish’s Scandinavian offerings splitting a fourth spot. A daily rotating vendor keeps things interesting. 609 Irvington Ave., 407-776-4693; $$ n

Home to roost Florida Film Festival welcomes back its own BY ST EV E SC HN EI D ER

ake a look around at this year’s Florida Film Festival, and you might feel as if you’ve entered a time warp to the turn of the last century. Hey, aren’t those the Haxan guys? And Todd Thompson? And that kid Will … Goss, was it? Somebody crank up the Smash Mouth and let’s celebrate! We’re going to party until Rich Crotty tells us to stop! “I’m just looking forward to seeing everyone again in the only cinema that’s ever felt like home to me,” says Haxan co-founder Mike Monello via email. In the late 1990s, he was marketing director for that cinema, Maitland’s Enzian Theater. That was shortly before he and a bunch of friends revolutionized the horror genre (and the very concept of media marketing) with The Blair Witch Project, which as the opening-night film of the FFF in 1999 amounted to a textbook case of hometown heroes made good. “For me personally, the FFF screening 20 years ago was a huge moment,” Monello says. “I learned so much about the film business on the job as Director of Marketing at Enzian and the festival, and all of it was put to use with Blair Witch.” This year’s FFF includes an anniversary screening of the film, with its makers in attendance. That screening comes on the heels of a similar presentation at the most recent iteration of the Sundance Film Festival – an annual event that likewise holds a special place in the Blair Witch mythology. “Playing Sundance was a major milestone for The Blair Witch Project,” Monello says. “It told the industry and the world that this film was worth a look. “[But] while Sundance was hugely significant to Blair Witch, Enzian and the Florida Film Festival are a real homecoming.” This year’s opening-night film is likewise an inside job: Woman in Motion, a documentary profile of Star Trek legend Nichelle Nichols, was directed by Todd Thompson, a local who has been involved with the FFF on multiple levels over the last two decades. “It’s hard to believe it but the Florida Film Festival has been part of my life for 20 years now,” Thompson says, also via email. “I’ve been there as a volunteer, I’ve been there as a passholder and I’ve been there as a filmmaker.” He’s been making shorts since “Hollywood East” could still be said with a straight face. And many of them have graced the screen at the Enzian:

“Between Film Slam, Brouhaha and Florida Film Festival, I’ve had quite a few films screen there. My very first was The Paper Route in 1999,” he recalls. Another, 2002’s Time & Again, starred Seymour Cassel, the veteran Hollywood and indie actor who was a perennial guest at the FFF (and whose passing was announced the day this story went to press). Will Woman in Motion amount to Thompson’s Blair Witch moment? If not, it won’t be for lack of effort: “[The film] has been a four-year journey for us,” he says. “We shot over 60 interviews for the film all over the country, and that just took time. But on that long road we’ve had the opportunity to meet and get to know a lot of incredible people. This is my first doc as a director, and the whole experience has been really humbling.” For filmmaker Will Goss, having a short film screen at the FFF this year will be the culmination of a love affair with the event that began when his dad brought him to opening-night film Love & Sex in 2000. Thus began a family festival-going tradition that included a memorable viewing of the Midnight Shorts program – and some concerned “grilling” from the festival staff as to whether its content was really appropriate for a father and his then-young son. “We were ultimately allowed in – after all, we’d already purchased our tickets – but I still don’t think it’s a coincidence that the FFF team seemed to enforce an age limit on that program in the years that immediately followed,” he says via email. Since then, Goss has written about film for publications including the Central Florida Future, Orlando Weekly, the Austin Chronicle, Empire and Film.com. He’s hosted some FFF screenings (“including the Midnight Shorts, ironically enough”). And he’s directed four short films, with the latest, Sweet Steel, “the first to gain any sort of traction on the festival circuit. “It was a thrill for us to have our world premiere for Sweet Steel at South by Southwest last month,” he says, “but FFF still has dibs on my film-loving heart, and I really couldn’t be prouder to bring things full circle after nearly two decades.” As a wise man once said, the years start coming and they don’t stop coming. Yes, it was Smash Mouth. Now get your game on and go play, everybody. feedback@orlandoweekly.com

GREENER GRASS

Thinning the herd Florida Film Festival programmers balance quality and variety BY CA MERON MEIER

t sounds like a joke: How do you whittle 2,015 submitted films down to just 184? The punchline: carefully. But for Florida Film Festival Programming Director Matthew Curtis and Programming Coordinator Tim Anderson, it’s no joke. It’s their job. “It’s not easy,” Curtis understates. “You know, it’s something that we kind of have an innate sense of how to balance a program, how to order a program, what we like in each section of the festival. … One of the tag lines long ago of the festival was ‘films for everyone.’ And we’ve always prided ourselves on having as eclectic and diverse a slate as possible. So it is a kind of juggling act and a balance. There are always really good films that fall by the wayside because we have too many of those type of films.” Speaking of pride, Curtis and Anderson brag that 47 percent of this year’s films are directed by women, with one shorts program devoted exclusively to female directors. But just as they sometimes sacrifice quality to balance subjects, do they sacrifice quality to create other types of balance? “No. It’s the easiest no I’ll ever have to answer,” Anderson says. “Quality trumps everything. The fact that we keep breaking the record [of number of female filmmakers] is total happenstance. We didn’t set out to do it. … It is 100 percent happening organically.” But what about Florida flicks? After all, this is the Florida Film Festival. Well, everything being equal, Curtis and Anderson admit they might give extra credit to homegrown movies. But they also stress that this is an international event. “Let’s say everything was exactly identical about [two competing] movies, we’d be programming the one from Florida,” Anderson says. “[But] your film [is accepted] based on its quality and not based on an ancillary item about it, which I think maybe is a misconception because we are called the Florida Film Festival: that somehow we’re

uniquely responsible for playing films that are made here. … But like we would not sacrifice quality to put a female filmmaker ahead of a male filmmaker, we essentially would not necessarily sacrifice quality to put a Florida filmmaker above, you know, a filmmaker from Iowa. … A lot of times it really breaks our heart.” Knowing they beat out filmmakers from around the globe surely made acceptance all the more gratifying for UCF professors Lisa Mills and Robert Cassanello, who co-directed Marching Forward. The world-premiere documentary explores segregation in 1960s Orlando and joins Pahokee (a coming-of-age documentary set in the Florida Everglades) as this year’s “Florida Features.” And new to the festival in 2019 is “Sunshine & Swampland: New Florida Shorts,” a collection of 10 Florida shorts, half receiving their world premiere. The program replaces “Best of Brouhaha,” which was a favorite among locals because it included winners of the Enzian’s monthly FilmSlam competitions. Its elimination was not without controversy, but Anderson says the change was made mostly to allow the festival to select the best films. (Other movies by filmmakers with Florida connections are scattered through the festival too, notably in the Midnight Shorts program.) Helping Curtis and Anderson are their committee members, who work without pay, though they do receive perks, including free Enzian membership. One such volunteer, Kate Shults – filmmaker, curator and lecturer at the University of Central Florida – sits on the domestic narrative features and experimental shorts committees. “Each committee is sent every single film submitted for that particular category, and we watch them all!” Shults says. “For about two to three months, I will watch 10 feature films every week. Some committees meet, watch and discuss the films together. Other committees work remote-

ly, then have one very long meeting where we debate and fight for the films we feel strongly about programming. “Unique and underrepresented perspectives are very important to me as a programmer. I look for films with stories that are subtle and complex. I like a film with a confident style that makes sense for the film and isn’t just an unrevised copy of something else. But I think everyone can relate to the sentiment that when you see a good film, you just feel it. Guts and hearts are definitely part of the process.” Because Charles Sutter sits on both the documentary features and documentary shorts committees, he saw around 600 shorts and 280 features. And the toughest task, he says, was cutting those doc features down to a shortlist of just 25. “This year was a strong year,” says Sutter, who is both a filmmaker and online instructor for the LA Film School. “That makes sense when things are a little politically turbulent. Documentaries are more interesting.” But regardless of the quality in a given year, Sutter says the process is more a group effort than a personal crusade. “I try not to make it about myself, like these are my tastes, this is what I want, this is what I think should be in the festival,” he says. “In terms of coming up with those 25 movies that we can all agree on … there are a couple of different kinds of criteria that we use to get there [such as] how well did this movie execute its own goals.” Though Curtis and Anderson rely on Shults, Sutter and another 19 people across nine committees, they watch about 600-700 films themselves. That’s especially impressive considering Curtis has been involved since the festival’s debut in 1992. So what keeps him going? “I think I’m a fairly patient person and fairly evenkeeled,” Curtis says. “Oh, God, he’s very patient,” Anderson interjects, adding that they both have more than their share of OCD. “I get an awful amount of pleasure and take an incredible amount of pride in bringing the best films I can to this community,” Curtis continues. “And I’m kind of really happy I’ve been given this opportunity to be in such a unique situation. You know, I still love it. And how many people can say that after doing the same job for decades?”

the very pretension it’s been attempting to lampoon. And it’s consistently undermined by a fairly impenetrable lead performance by Jess Weixler as Mabel, an actor who attempts to straddle the worlds of her supposedly grotesque co-stars and her genuinely grotesque industry pals. The script depicts her character as alternately clueless and empathetic, but it’s hard to tell if this is meant to represent a dichotomy or an evolution, because the work done by Weixler – who has a rather extensive pedigree as both a performer and a filmmaker in her own right – is frankly sub-professional in some key scenes. She has a wonderfully expressive face, but you spend a good amount of time wondering what exactly it’s trying to express. Which is just about the worst way for this film to advance its thesis that surfaces can’t be trusted. – SS

Sneak peeks at everything we were able to see in advance BY THADDEUS MCCOLLUM, MATTHEW MOYER AND STEVE SCHNEIDER

Always in Season

Directed by Jacqueline Olive 3:30 p.m. Saturday, April 13, Enzian Theater; 7 p.m. Thursday, April 18, Regal Winter Park Village How do you get people to care about the epidemic of black Americans dying under suspicious circumstances? You frame it as a good old-fashioned murder mystery, because white folks just love that stuff. With all the narrative savvy of a 48 Hours episode, Always in Season probes the death of Lennon Lacy, a teenager who was found hanged in a North Carolina community that has a pernicious history of racial enmity. The incident was swiftly and perfunctorily ruled a suicide, but Lacy’s family fought seemingly blasé law enforcement and local media to show the world it might have been something more sinister. Lacy’s story, though, is essentially a framing device for an exploration of the history of lynching in America, with profoundly disturbing archival images documenting one of our least-talked-about national pastimes. There’s also a fascinating portrayal of the modern-day phenomenon of lynching reenactments (yeah, that’s a new one to me, too), in which concerned historians both black and white dramatize notorious murders of the past. Predictably, some 34

members of the affected communities argue that such painful memories should remain unexhumed. How many of them would conversely preach the educational value of Civil War reenactments is up to you to surmise. – SS

Chained for Life

Directed by Aaron Schimberg 1 p.m. Saturday, April 13, Enzian Theater; 9:15 p.m. Wednesday, April 17, Regal Winter Park Village Festivals are the ideal forum for movies about the quirks and absurdities of indie filmmaking. If you chuckled at Living in Oblivion, State and Main and Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story, you’re the target audience for Chained for Life, in which a film crew goes on location in a hospital to shoot a horror picture about eugenics. The supporting cast of the movie they’re lensing are people with serious deformities and disfigurements, which only underlines the crew’s vanities, both physical and intellectual. (In one hilarious bit, their Germanic martinet of a director launches into a glowing and protracted analysis of a key scene from The Muppet Movie.) Chained for Life certainly has its moments, but it gradually succumbs to

ORLANDO WEEKLY ● APRIL 10-16, 2019 ● orlandoweekly.com

Directed by Akash Sherman 5 p.m. Saturday, April 20, Regal Winter Park Village; 1:30 p.m. Sunday, Regal Winter Park Village Almost the definition of a film “not made for the critics,” Clara is a pretty decent movie – as long as you’ve never seen any other movies. It takes a pretty decent concept – an astronomer searching for signs of extraterrestrial life while coping with family tragedy – and turns it into hackneyed romantic schlock. Patrick J. Adams (Suits) stars as the cantankerous scientist, Dr. Isaac Bruno, and Troian Bellisario (Pretty Little Liars) stars as Clara, the manic pixie dream girl who teaches him how to love again. Stop us if you think that you’ve heard this one before. The film is marginally impressive in how many different tropes it manages to pack into its 105-minute runtime, and by the time the film reaches its final act, you may end up laughing out loud – but not in a good way. This is why aliens don’t contact us. – TM

Desolation Center

Directed by Stuart Swezey 9 p.m. Friday, April 19, Regal Winter Park Village; 4:30 p.m. Saturday, April 20, Regal Winter Park Village Tired of being constantly harassed by the police and having shows shut down by the authorities, a group of visionary Los Angeles punks and artists formed a collective – Desolation Center - in the ’80s to hold shows far, faaaaaaaarrrr outside of the reach of the LAPD. How far out, you ask? For their first event, they bused a couple hundred punks to the middle of the goddamn Mojave Desert to watch Savage Republic and Minutemen. And it worked! The stakes were raised exponentially with the second event, featuring Mark Pauline’s Survival Research Labs, whose unbelievable “set” consisted of trying to blow up a large section of canyon wall. The events put on by this short-lived group would, ironically, go on to inspire big-money fest enterprises like Burning Man, Coachella and Lollapalooza. Does that count as a happy ending, or nah? – MM

Dons of Disco

Directed by Jonathan Sutak 10:30 a.m. Saturday, April 14, Enzian Theater; 9:30 p.m. Thursday, April 18, Regal Winter Park Village Musical imposterdom didn’t begin with Milli Vanilli and C+C Music Factory. In the 1980s, there was the Italian dancepop sensation known as Den Harrow: Journeyman musician Tom Hooker cowrote and sang the hits, while beefcake club kid Stefano Zandri mimed them for an adoring, unknowing public. The subterfuge stood for three decades, until Hooker took to the internet seeking belated recognition. The game of mutual negation that ensued is framed in this doc initially as a classic hero-versus-villain tale, with the defensive

Zandri coming across as unrepentant and delusional as to his own artistic worth. But the movie keeps subverting your assumptions, offering a more complicated picture of the choices each man has made and why. As it speeds towards its thrilling climax, Dons of Disco has you wishing simply that healing will come to both of them – while realizing you no longer have any clear idea of what that might mean. – SS

General Magic

Directed by Matt Maude & Sarah Kerruish Noon Sunday, April 14, Regal Winter Park Village; 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 16, Regal Winter Park Village The topic of General Magic, a documentary about an early-’90s tech company that failed, sounds a little dull on paper, but in execution, it’s captivating. In a prescient act of hubris – one of many – the team at General Magic hired a filmmaker to document their attempt to build the very first smartphone-like device. Years later, that footage is mixed in with present-day interviews with key players at the company, including former Apple CEO John Sculley, who many blame for the death of General Magic – an Apple subsidiary – after his public unveiling of the Newton, a handheld device that performed many of the functions General Magic was developing. It’s a must-see for anyone interested in tech history, as well as an inspiring look at how failure doesn’t necessarily mean the end of something. After the film shows what these failures went on to achieve later in their lives, you might be inspired to tank your start-up as well. – TM

Hail Satan?

Directed by Penny Lane 8:30 p.m. Sunday, April 14, Regal Winter Park Village; 7 p.m. Saturday, April 20, Enzian Theater Documenting the behind-the-scenes story of the Satanic Temple, Hail Satan? is probably our favorite documentary that we saw at the festival. And not just because a screenshot of an Orlando Weekly article is shown briefly. The Satanic Temple’s mission – advocating for religious pluralism in a so-called “Christian nation” – blends satire and activism, shown by their frequent attempts to raise statues of Baphomet on public land that allows monuments to the Ten Commandments to be raised. The film spends lots of time with co-founder and spokesperson Lucien Greaves, as well as several average, everyday Satanists, to tell the story of how letting Satan into their hearts inspires them to stand up for the oppressed and marginalized. The history of Christian hegemony over public spaces is also explored – and it doesn’t go back as far as you might think it does. Prepare to be converted: Hail Satan? is a religious experience. – TM

Knife + Heart

Directed by Yann Gonzalez 11:59 p.m. Saturday, April 20, Enzian Theater What I learned from this midnight movie is that it was really hard to be a female filmmaker in 1979 Paris, especially if your specialty was gay male porn. And if you yourself were a lesbian in the throes of breaking up with your girlfriend, who just happened to be your film editor. Oh, and if your cast members were simultaneously being stalked through the city’s fetish underground by a mysterious killer whose weapon of choice was a knife that emerged at crucial moments from its hiding place inside a big, black dildo. (If Paul Schrader and Lotte Lenya had a baby, this is what he would be like.) On the narrative and thematic levels, director Gonzalez’ thriller is sometimes hackneyed and harebrained to a degree that exceeds the boundaries of genre homage. But its undeniable style makes it a hell of a watch in the literal sense, and the flashes of humor are more than welcome, particularly when the lead character repurposes her real-life travails into a gay murder mystery titled Homocidal. FUN FACT: Said lead character is portrayed by Vanessa Paradis, the Euroteen singing sensation turned recording artist, actor and model. Deborah Gibson, consider the gauntlet thrown. – SS

International Shorts No. 1: “Never Let Me Go”

6:30 p.m. Friday, April 19, Regal Winter Park Village; 2:30 p.m. Sunday, April 21, Enzian Theater The shorts programs offer you the best value for your dollar at the festival, and the program we were able to view in advance, International Shorts No. 1, is no exception. It begins with Ognjen Petkovic’s Autumn Waltz, a high-tension drama about a couple who get stopped at a checkpoint during the Balkan wars of the 1990s. The FrenchTunisian production Nefta Football Club, directed by Yves Piat, is a humorous look at what happens when two young soccer fans come across a literal drug mule in the desert. Australian director Charles Williams won the Palme d’Or for Best Short Film at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival with his fever dream look at mental illness, All These Creatures. Swiss director Corina Schwingruber Ilic will make you never want to go on a cruise again with the beautifully photographed All Inclusive. An Iranian husband and wife get surprised by the results of an acting audition in Farnoosh Samadi’s The Role. And a motivational speaker, a speed dating session and an anger management class end up being interconnected in Polish director Maciej Buchwald’s Happiness. But the absolute standout in this program is the hilarious short Indian documentary Tungrus, a look at a family terrorized by a pet rooster. – TM

The Interpreters

Directed by Andres Caballero & Sofian Khan 2:15 p.m. Sunday, April 14, Regal Winter Park Village; 4 p.m. Wednesday, April 17, Enzian Theater At their best, documentaries broaden our views on the real world and inspire actions to fix real problems. In this sense, The Interpreters is one of the best documentaries at the Florida Film Festival this year. Shot in Afghanistan, Iraq, Turkey and the United States, the film tells the story of translators who assisted coalition forces in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Though they do their best to keep their identities secret, these allies are potentially subject to severe retaliation from extremists. Unfortunately, the Special Immigrant Visa program set up to help them come to safety in the U.S. has become stymied in the wake of Islamophobic policies like the travel ban. The core of the film is about a friendship between an Iraqi interpreter and a U.S. soldier and their continuously frustrating attempts to get the interpreter and his family to safety during the rise of ISIS. Bring tissues, then call your representatives. – TM

Miniscule – Mandibles From Far Away

Directed by Hélène Giraud & Thomas Szabo Noon Sunday, April 21, Enzian Theater This French family film is a sequel to a 2013 feature, but you don’t have to know anything about the plot of the first film to enjoy it. When a young ladybug gets separated from its family, one of its parents goes on an epic journey to the Caribbean to bring it home. The film is visually interesting due to its use of real-life backgrounds mixed with CGI characters and action, but the story does tend to drag. You might not be able to help thinking that the story would have been better if it had a bit of fat trimmed. Don’t let the fear of subtitles dissuade you from bringing any kids who might like it, though; all of the “dialogue” is comprised of universally understood sound effects. – TM

Roll Red Roll

Directed by Nancy Schwartzman 8:30 p.m. Saturday, April 13, Regal Winter Park Village; 4 p.m. Thursday, April 18, Regal Winter Park Village On the night of Aug. 11, 2012, a high school girl was raped by members of the Steubenville High School football team in eastern Ohio. The story garnered national attention after it was covered in The New York Times due to the involvement of social media in its investigation. The perpetrators had taken photos, texted friends and made several tweets alluding to the crime. Nancy Schwartzman’s documentary

about the Steubenville High School rape case is compiled of interviews with the lead detective on the case, legal experts, families and journalists, along with videotaped interviews with witnesses, but the heart of the story focuses on the efforts of an independent blogger, Alexandria Goddard, who used social media to compile a significant body of evidence using Twitter and Facebook. The result is a harrowing look at rape culture, especially victim blaming, as well as how social media can be used as a tool for investigative work. – TM

Slut in a Good Way

Directed by Sophie Lorain 11:15 p.m. Saturday, April 20, Regal Winter Park Village; 3:45 p.m. Sunday, April 21, Regal Winter Park Village This charming teen sex comedy from Quebec follows Charlotte, a 17-year-old girl rebounding from a breakup who, with her friends, gets a part-time job at a toy store in order to meet new guys. She soon runs into problems due to the age-old double standard laid on the promiscuity of men and women. But Charlotte and her friends decide to do something about it, taking a heavy cue from Lysistrata. The stakes may be low, and your tolerance of the adolescent mindset may determine your enjoyment of the film. But it’s refreshing to see teens speak openly about sexuality and consequences without the film turning into a lascivious leer-fest or a preachy melodrama. We can only imagine what Hollywood would do with the premise, but it wouldn’t be pretty. – TM

Spider Mites of Jesus: The Dirtwoman Documentary

Directed by Jerry Williams 6 p.m. Sunday, April 14, Regal Winter Park Village; 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 17, Enzian Theater As Divine was to Baltimore, so was Dirtwoman (né Donnie Corker) to Richmond, Virginia. With a thick Dusty Rhodes-ish Southern drawl, and outrageous attire that was as much confrontational glam as it was bored housewife (a muumuu paired with a Dolly Parton wig and new-wave shades, for instance), Dirtwoman was an outand-proud Richmond institution from the 1970s until his passing in 2017. Corker spent a life gleefully challenging Southern social mores, whether performing drag for decades (often getting naked at the end of his act), doing sex work, tormenting police, collaborating with GWAR, protecting punks or even attempting a run for Richmond’s mayorship. This film is a little rough around the edges, and there’re some very emotionally raw and difficult scenes, but it has a metric ton of heart. – MM

AND THEN THERE WERE THREE Nels Cline plays the City Beautiful as part of an all-star improv trio BY KYLE EAGLE

uitarist Nels Cline is one of those artists who seem to love everything about the world and all the music in it. When asking him about his inspirations, his bandmates or recordings, one had better be very specific, because the man gets around, and has been doing so for decades. On a given night, Cline could be playing with Americana stars Wilco, or on tour with Mike Watt, or in a punk band or a jazz ensemble; hell, it wouldn’t be a surprise to hear he does birthday parties. In recent years, Cline’s profile has been on the rise due a series of stunning releases, notably Lovers (2016) and Currents/ Constellations (2018) on venerable jazz imprint Blue Note. This week, Cline comes to town in the heavy company of saxophonist Larry Ochs and drummer Gerald Cleaver for a night of mindbending improvisation on the heels of their latest work, What Is To Be Done, released this year on Clean Feed Records. The nameless trio bring the noise, and then some, with enough combined experience to fill a lifetime. Ochs is one of the founding members of free jazz legends

Rova Saxophone Quartet. Cleaver has lent his percussion acumen to jazz heroes like Jeremy Pelt, Miroslav Vitous and Roscoe Mitchell. Cline’s résumé is more like a compact history of underground music, with experiences ranging from Sonic Youth to William Parker, down through Wilco and the Geraldine Fibbers. Collectively the trio can take performance, and their audience, to the outer limits of musical experience with focused energy and dazzling ferocity. Don’t fear the skronk, though – they let beauty shine through too. Cline, ever the affable and polished spokesperson, took the time to talk to Orlando Weekly about the group’s upcoming performance on Thursday. What Is To Be Done is a real departure from your previous work. This album verges on the cinematic and it’s occasionally menacing in tone. It’s been years since you put this kind of free improvising on wax. It’s an improvising trio and we’ll be stepping into some potentially hazardous sonic realms. It’s certainly a case of what happens

when we play together. Larry, with Rova, and Gerald and I, with whoever we play with, add the colors to what the music calls for. In live settings, in performance, this is par for the course. We’re doing this kind of music all the time. I do have some recordings slated for release that are pretty rockin’ and similar in tone to what we’re doing here. It’s interesting that you’re coming here for the first time and playing in a free jazz outfit, whereas many of the artists you’ve collaborated with have been treading the boards here for awhile. What took you so long? Well, this gig initiated a mini-tour throughout the South – Gainesville, Georgia and Alabama. I’ve played in town before with Wilco, and Mike Watt back in the ’90s. Larry’s played with a lot of the people that the Civic Minded 5 [the show’s organizers] have worked with, so in a way it’s been predestined and I’m happy to be playing there. Sonically, what are we going hear? It will be completely different. We don’t have a single riff that we played on the record or before. We aren’t like, “Hey, that was a good area, let’s do that again.” We don’t do that, we just play. I’m sure it’ll be pretty burning because, you know … we’re energetic gentleman. It’ll raise dust. If anything I think you’ve come up with a great band moniker, the Energetic Gentlemen. We’ve been pondering what to call ourselves, but nothing has stuck. music@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

This week, a tale of two Bauhaus

members and an Orlando breakout returns.

BAUHAUS 40TH ANNIVERSARY, PLAZA LIVE, APRIL 4

Peter Murphy is seriously fucking with Orlando. The cancellation just last February was already unbelievable when the plug was pulled mid-show after the two openers had performed. This time, what was unlikely, unthinkable even, became surreally actual when the announcement came yet again at the makeup show that Murphy was bailing after Austin opener Sine had already played. The fateful proclamation that drew silent, open mouths back in February was met, rightfully, with a wave of jeers this time. Were this demographic any less goth or old, there would’ve been a riot. This has officially become straight-up life comedy. But even though full refunds were already promised, original Bauhaus bandmate David J – himself showing equal disbelief and at least some decency – decided to try soldiering on without the iconic frontman just to give us something, anything. It was a brave gesture under impossible circumstances, especially given the recent history here. So he and the band formed a ragtag crew with opener Sine and her guest vocalist Curse Mackey, who did a respectable vocal job in Murphy’s tall stead, to rally and play a grab bag of Bauhaus songs. They made for a full, if not quite together, band. And their performance can only be described as incomplete; David J characterized it as an attempt to “improvise, deconstruct and dub” the songs.

A guy like David J – a legend in his own right – didn’t need to put himself out there like that because of Peter Murphy’s shortcoming. But he did.

But at some point, this became less about quality of performance than sheer pluck. On that count, maximum respect. A guy like David J – to be clear, a legend in his own right – didn’t need to put himself out there like that because of someone else’s shortcoming. But he did. And though they only mustered about a half-hour set, a good-sized crowd stuck around to see where it would go and ultimately commanded an encore with chants of “David, David, David!” However, one telling thing David J did let slip was that they only knew about this a couple of hours ago, which is not exactly just now. And that begs some huge questions. So let the theories swirl. But what was absolutely clear was his other comment, that this was probably one of the most bizarre concert situations of all time for both him and us. So some history was made this night after all, however backhanded. As poorly as this repeat debacle reflects on Murphy, it basically guarantees sainthood for David J. So next time Murph comes to town? Whatever. But David J

should come back through on his own. He did his damnedest to do right by us and I’m pretty sure Orlando would remember that.

EMILY REO, BATRY POWR AND SPOON DOGS, STARDUST VIDEO, APRIL 3

For their membership launch, Rollins College independent radio station WPRK (91.5-FM) held an event that befitted its gravity in the music community, featuring live performances by a noteworthy lineup of talent that was both credentialed and homegrown. Besides excellent showings by rock & roll arsonists the Spoon Dogs and Batry Powr (Nicole Miglis from Hundred Waters’ solo project), it was a noteworthy return for erstwhile local Emily Reo. Though she’s been making moves in Brooklyn for a while now with releases on notable indies like Carpark Records and Orchid Tapes, she sprang from legitimately deep indie roots as a young Orlando artist in the late 2000s. But being both experimentally minded and emerging in a time defined by the temporary insanity of noncommittally nebulous sounds like chillwave, not all of her music immediately stuck. That’s why this return is particularly refreshing and resonant. With a blossoming commitment to pop clarity, Reo’s vision and posture are much more resolute and salient. She hasn’t sold out to some bottom-feeding commercial sound or anything. Instead, she’s now striking a dynamic balance of contemporary pop appeal with just enough left-leaning artistry to be interesting. And it made for a homecoming worth an ovation. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Mitski MUSIC

After the release of last year’s universally lauded Be the Cowboy and the album’s appearance on several Best of 2018 lists, Mitski Miyawaki steps into the Plaza this week for a victory lap. Since 2014’s Bury Me at Makeout Creek, Mitski’s emotionally evocative indie rock has grown sharper and more sweeping, resulting in songs that feel both intimate and grandiose. Opening for the tour is the similarly minded bedroom pop of California’s Jay Som, making attendance at this show mandatory for the tuned-in. – Thaddeus McCollum PHOTO BY BAO NGO

Steve Riley & the Mamou Playboys MUSIC

Remember the last time a big-name Cajun band rolled through Orlando? Exactly. They don’t very often. That’s why this concert is an imperative for traditional folk music aficionados. Led by Grammywinning master accordionist Steve Riley, the Mamou Playboys – themselves a four-time Grammy nominated outfit – have been carrying the proud musical torch of French Louisiana for over 30 years. Their decorated take on traditional Cajun music is a refined sound that honors heritage with both craft and spirit, never compromising either. They play with the kind of skill and scholarship that passes serious cultural muster but without losing any of the rich backwater verve that’s in the Cajun marrow. Putting the Mamou Playboys’ woozy, authentic bayou jams under the party string lights at the Veranda Live’s beautiful courtyard can only result in one mighty fais do-do. Wear dancing shoes, y’all. – Bao Le-Huu

Opera on Eola OPERA

Amid the usual hustle and bustle of downtown Orlando, you’ll be able to hear a new, more pleasant sound this weekend as Opera del Sol performs an outdoor show in Lake Eola Park. On a mission to change the way opera and the performing arts are perceived, this dedicated group of performers prefer to showcase their talents in unique settings to provide their audience with an intimate show – and what better place than the scenic Lake Eola for a backdrop? The performance is free, but VIP tickets come with a good seat, a swag bag and a drink. – Elizabeth Gondar noon | Walt Disney Amphitheater at Lake Eola Park, 512 E.

Angel Inertia MUSIC

We love a good themed show, and most Church of United Ministry events do have a subversively fun “message.” This Monday’s pokes absurdist fun at the most dreaded day of the year for those of us without property or children or sundry assets: Tax Day. So after you drop your tear-stained return off at the post office, come to “Turbo Tax,” a showcase of some amazing New Orleans trans and queer electronic musicians (or is it “tax professionals”) who are part of an incredible, vibrant young underground in that city. Angel Inertia (fka Voice Hoist) has played the City Beautiful four or five times now and her take on industrial is just fearsome; we get chills like when we heard VIVIsectVI for the first time. Bride (a newer spin-off project from Softie) craft ethereal, danceable techno-pop. Alwaysimpressive locals Bacon Grease and Ootheca – both scene vets who have reinvented their respective sounds – make this a night of aesthetics akin to the biggest tax refund ever. – Matthew Moyer with Bride, Glen Parks, Bacon Grease, Ootheca | 10 p.m. | Church of United Ministry, 647 N.

Robert Lopez/Jamie Poissant/Holly Tavel/Ashley Inguanta LITERARY

Brooklyn writer Robert Lopez boasts an impressive body of work, and reviews of his 2015 story collection, Good People, compared his writing to that of Samuel Beckett, Gertrude Stein and Albert Camus. But he’ll have to bring his A game if he wants to outshine the locals who will read with him at this literary Lil Indies outing: Jamie Poissant, whose 2014 collection The Heaven of Animals (Simon & Schuster) drew glowing blurbs from every writer you love; Ashley Inguanta, the talented triple threat poet-photographer-dancer whose next book is out late 2019; and Holly Tavel, whose collection The Weather in Fritz Bemelmans Park was one of the best things we read in 2016. Our only complaint about this event is that if the writers are out reading, it means they aren’t home writing. Entertain us! – Jessica Bryce Young 7 p.m. | Lil Indies, 1036 N. Mills Ave. | willspub.org | free

APRIL 10-16, 2019 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY

B Y DA N S AVAG E

I’m a heteroflexible married cis woman in my 40s. I’m also a POS cheater and a catfish. I really fucked up. One year ago, I met an older man in an online fetish forum. He sent me an unsolicited PM, and we have talked for hours every day since then. My husband, whom I’ve been married to for more than 20 years, does not know that I am having an emotional affair. I have no intention of telling my husband what I’ve done. I have been honest with my online boyfriend about everything except my name, my age and the fact that I have a husband. (I know those are all really big things to lie about.) My boyfriend lied to me early on about his name, age and relationship status, but came clean out of guilt. So I had the opportunity to say that I lied too, but I didn’t take it. I know what I’m doing is wrong. My husband would be very hurt if he knew. And my boyfriend, who wants to make a life together, would be very hurt as well. I’m in love with both men, but I’m not leaving my husband. I know the only right thing to do is break things off with my boyfriend. I’ve tried multiple times: I’ve told him that he is better off without me, that I’m a bad person, that he shouldn’t trust me. Each time, he convinces me to stay. We have not been physical. We have never even been in the same room, much to his dismay. I have thought about telling him the truth, but I am worried about my safety, and I do not want to hurt him any worse than I already have. Plus, I’m a fucking coward. I am in treatment for PTSD. My therapist believes that my actions are a coping mechanism, i.e., it is easier to pretend to be someone else than it is to be me. I don’t think she’s wrong, but I also don’t think it excuses what I’ve done. How do I end this relationship without doing any more damage to my two partners? Conning And Tricking For Intensely Selfish Haven Far be it from me to question your therapist’s assessment – she’s spoken with you on multiple occasions, and her insights are doubtless more informed – but I think her framing falls short. She describes your actions as a coping mechanism: You told a stranger lies and abused your husband’s trust to escape your miserable life. If you weren’t so fucking miserable – if other people and/or circumstances hadn’t conspired to make you so fucking miserable – you wouldn’t have done this. You wouldn’t be doing this still. But despite your therapist’s efforts to help you down off that hook, CATFISH, you seem determined to hang there. She’s offering you absolution, in whole or in part, while you stand around flagellating yourself (“POS cheater,” “fucking coward,” “bad person,” etc.). Personally, I think you’re entitled to your feelings. Go ahead and feel terrible. You did 54

a bad thing. It’s not the worst thing someone’s ever done online, and most people know not to take what a stranger tells them on the internet at face value. But if feeling terrible doesn’t motivate you to make changes … well, it’s not for me to question your sincerity. But some people think it’s OK to do terrible things so long as they have the decency to feel terrible about having done them. If you’re not one of those people – if you actually feel bad – doing something about it and learning something from it will alleviate your misery. Here’s what you need to do: End things with your boyfriend. Write him an email and tell him the truth about your age, marital status and unavailability. Don’t share your real name with him; you’re under no obligation to do so, and if he turns out to be the vindictive type, CATFISH, you don’t want him to have your real identity. Apologize for not coming clean when he did – he lied to you too at the start – and thank him for the pleasure of his virtual company and the joy he brought to your life. Then block him. Here’s what you need to learn: You didn’t do this because you’re miserable – or you didn’t do it just because you’re miserable. You did this because it was fun. We call it “play” when children pretend to be someone or something they’re not; child’s play is also, yes, a coping mechanism. Vulnerable children pretend to be big and powerful superheroes and/or monsters to cope with and momentarily escape their relative powerlessness. And nothing makes a child’s playful fantasy feel more real than a good friend who plays along. Most adults don’t make time for play – most of us aren’t LARPers or kinksters – but even adults need play, and some adults need play more than others. You found a space where you could play (that online fetish forum), and you found a playmate who helped make your fantasies feel real (a guy you’ve never actually met and who could still be lying to you about all sorts of things). It got out of hand when arousal, orgasms, oxytocin and promises you couldn’t keep got stirred into the mix. The play made you feel better at first, but the dishonesty and stress of deceiving two people eventually wiped out the benefits you were getting. You need to find a way to build some play into your life, sexual and/or nonsexual, that doesn’t require you to lie or hide. It would be great if you could do that with your husband, CATFISH, but if he’s not willing or able to play with you, get his OK to play on your own. I am a 70-year-old straight woman, and I haven’t been in an intimate relationship for seven years. I feel deprived of physical contact, but I also have some obstacles to pursu-

ing intimacy at this point in my life. My vagina is seriously out of shape. In fact, it was a challenge to have sex with my last partner, because he was rather well-endowed. I had to work up to it, but it finally worked. My libido is on the low side, but it still flares up now and then. I also have herpes, plus I’m taking an antidepressant that makes it hard for me to orgasm. But even with all that, I’ve enjoyed sex in the past. Would it make sense for me to look for a man who may also have some sexual issues and/or be willing to work with/around mine? Someone who enjoys all the other aspects of sexual intimacy besides penis in vagina? How would I find such a man? I’m not necessarily just looking for sex – a compatible companion would be great. Need Fresh Input

Meet Sully and Sabrina!

“NFI can have it all – sex, companionship, orgasms,” says Joan Price, author of Naked at Our Age and The Ultimate Guide to Sex After 50. “She just needs to find someone who realizes that partnered sex does not have to mean PIV.” Your best bet for finding a man these days? Dating apps and websites, including dating apps for seniors. And don’t be shy about taking PIV off the menu, NFI, at least at the start. “As we age, many of us find non-penetrative sex with hands, mouth and vibrator more comfortable, sexier and an easier path to orgasm,” Price says. “And that includes men with erectile difficulties or decreased sensation. In her discussions with a potential new partner, NFI should explain that she’d like to get sexual in stages – and then explore and delight each other sexually, including orgasms, without PIV as the goal. But if she might enjoy PIV in the future, she should keep her vagina active with solo sex including a dildo or penetrative vibrator. Don’t wait until the right penis comes along.”

Sully (A424533) and Sabrina (A424533) are a very bonded pair of siblings. They are approximately four months old and very dependent on each other. Sully is an all-gray little boy who is hesitant, but once you put him on your lap, he stays put for all the rubbing and attention you can give him! Sabrina is the brave one. She is a gorgeous black girl with white tufts in her ears and splashes of white on her chest and belly. She REALLY wants to play, but starts out shy. These two don’t have a mean bone in their bodies and just need a forever family that will let them know they are loved and safe. Sully and Sabrina are available for adoption through Orange County Animal Services and are currently in the care of a foster parent. Please email fostercare@ocfl.net if you’d like to meet them.
