For those of you out there who guessed the correct answer to yesterday's pop quiz, congratulations. Yes, it was David Gordon Green, who for two days visited the set of Born on the 4th of July when he was in the eighth grade and says that watching Oliver Stone in action was the spark that made him want to make movies. How one minute Stone would be yelling at an older crew member, while the next minute he'd be talking softly to a child actor. That, coupled with the big cranes and general excitement, sealed the deal for David. And now, in 2008, he's the director of Warner Independent's somber, moving Snow Angels, as well as Sony's insanely funny Pineapple Express. I saw Snow Angels for the second time last night, and think it's a very strong work. Sam Rockwell has never been better. This weekend is beyond overwhelming with regards to independent releases in New York City (more on that tomorrow), but I recommend that you make room for Snow Angels in your busy schedule.

To set the tone for this weekend's release, there is going to be another event tonight in SoHo. i will see you there:
