Federal edicts and missiles over these past couple of weeks have created chaos among nonprofit organizations, state and local agencies and others who are focused on serving people who struggle to make ends meet. Among some of the confusion created by the White House was the threat of halting a large portion of federal grant funding that Congress has allocated for agencies serving some of the most vulnerable populations in our nation. It remains unclear what direction the federal government intends to take next.
‘Look Into My Eyes’ documents contemporary loneliness and the supernatural
Most Nashvillians will know filmmaker Lana Wilson for her Taylor Swift documentary, Miss Americana (2020). Wilson also directed the Brooke Shields documentary Pretty Baby (2023) as well as an examination of extremism and abortion in America (After Tiller, 2015), and a meditation on suicide in Japanese culture (The Departure, 2017). Wilson’s new movie, Look Into My Eyes reads like a blend of the filmmaker’s curiosities with interesting personalities and particular cultural trends.

Take the Paper and Read It!

If someone doesn’t take the paper when I’m selling it and just try to give me money, it can feel like panhandling. Even if someone comes up and says, “I only have one dollar,” I’ll say, “ok no problem here’s a paper anyway.” You know, just for the fun of it. Then they take the paper anyway because I think it’s that important that they should read it. I don’t want to throw them away if they don’t sell. If I have any old papers, I’ll also keep them around for people who may have missed an issue and want to still read it.
