			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Pretty much the only person our whole crew can agree on is Louis CK (we mostly like him, and are jealous of his $2 million payday last month.) So it was enlightening to find an old post of his kicking around this here internet describing how he went about pitching and writing his Lucky Louie show for HBO a few years ago. He says:

&#8220;So you go off and take as long as you need to churn out a first draft.  I think this took me a couple of months.  Only about three days were spent actually writing. The other fifty seven were spent driving myself nuts while ruminating about what the show is and how to do it.  That&#8217;s me. Some people write every day, just pounds and pounds of words.  I do a lot of work in my head and then just shit it out like fast diarreah.&#8221;

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[We are tickled to hear this week about the upcoming &#8220;Great Nurse-In,&#8221; scheduled for this August in DC. We first dove into the world of breastfeeding rules and regulations while working on <a href="http://www.breastmilkcounts.com/community.php" target="new">the Breast Milk Counts campaign for the Texas Department of Health</a>, and were blown away to discover the many obstacles, from laws to dirty looks to meddling family members, that keep new mothers from feeding their babies the way they want to. As one annoyed mother/subject put it, &#8220;Do you cover up when you eat?!&#8221; We don&#8217;t, so we encourage you to check out <a href="http://www.facebook.com/greatnursein" target="new">the Great Nurse-In on Facebook</a> and stop by if you&#8217;re, well, hungry for some truth.]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not gonna lie, I think this is the best thing I&#8217;ve seen all year &#8211; in 2012 so far at least. It&#8217;s exuberant, super fun to watch, and one of a very few indie films where the people making it actually look like they&#8217;re having a good time. Also, it has exactly the plot :: dancing ratio that I always want from cheesy dance movies but never get. It&#8217;s presented by Gothamist, so you can <a href="http://www.girlwalkallday.com" target="new">watch the whole epic thing here</a>. Also: Director Jacob Krupnick and producer Youngna Park will be teaching <a href="http://www.skillshare.com/Girl-Walk-All-Day-Screening-Conversation/534929724" target="new">a Skillshare class at Grind</a> this Friday night &#8211; I think I&#8217;m going!

I won&#8217;t say any more about this interview, because you should read it yourself, but I know I can&#8217;t wait to watch this movie and see how all of her complex, sometimes-conflicting ideas come together on the screen.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[This week we&#8217;re watching Agnes Varda&#8217;s Daguerreotypes, recently available on Netflix Instant (it was released in France in 1975 but never in America). The &#8220;Grandmother of the New Wave,&#8221; Varda&#8217;s doc focuses on the small collection of neighbors and shop owners outside her door on Rue Daguerre in the early 1970&#8242;s. It&#8217;s a fascinating cultural study of people who probably seemed mundane at the time, but they&#8217;re so interesting now because this way of life and these people no longer exist. Here, see an interview with Varda from 1956, discussing her first films and her directorial process.
