Charlotte Gainsbourg is one talented woman. I’ve always had a vague idea of who she was. But she demanded my full attention after absolutely killing it in Lars von Trier’s Antichrist. Since then, I’ve been on a mission to see as much of her work as possible. Sadly, I didn’t realize she was a musician […]

Mumford & Sons – Sigh No More
Sigh No More takes you through the journey that is love. They begin with the title track, Sigh No More, that proclaims, “Love will not betray, dismay or enslave you. It will set you free.” And from there, they delve into the darkest depths of exquisite pain, anger and helplessness that it can bring. They speak of love, of longing and of loss, climaxing with I Gave You All, a powerful, lamenting song that aims to “force from the world a patient smile.” Honest, vulnerable and inviting, the album fully immerses you. Forty-eight and a half minutes later, you emerge from their world satisfied and hopeful, yearning for more and desperately wanting to do it again.

by The Great White Gypsy I am a David Foster Wallace groupie. There, I said it. The man has a fairly small body of work; aside from magazine articles, he only wrote two novels and four short story/essay collections before committing suicide in 2008. Even so, he had already established himself as a genius of […]

Golden Globes Recap: 2010
Alright people, it’s awards season again. Time to roll out the red carpet, dish about celebrities, and gossip about who’s wearing what and going with who, right? Wait, who said “right”? Get the fuck out of here, Hugh Jackman, no one wants to hear you sing! This is sexy gypsy. Which means we’ve all spent […]

by The Great White Gypsy It’s been a couple weeks since reports appeared online concerning Washington Wizards players Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenton reenacting the OK Corral in the locker room.

by The Great White Gypsy Vampire movies are tricky. You feel like you always know what to expect, but you’re never really sure how it’s all going to play out on screen. Maybe it’s a character-driven film like Interview with the Vampire. Maybe it’ll be a gory, tongue-in-cheek romp like John Carpenter’s Vampires. Maybe it’ll […]
