¶ A history of violence For last week’s cover story, we wrote about the 1920 Ocoee Election Day Massacre, the largest incident of racist voting-day violence in U.S. history, and it happened right here in our backyard (“100 years ago in Ocoee, Black residents were murdered and driven off the land they owned, yet few know the story,” Nov. 4). Finally local officials are taking steps to recognize the victims and acknowledge the horrific impact of this event. @Jeremy Drummond The land needs to be returned to the descendants of these victims. Land ownership was hard to come by for Blacks back then, these people worked hard for what they got! @Patrick McDonald It still trips me out that between four different schools in Central Florida, from kindergarten through high school, this wasn’t taught or even mentioned. @Tara Henderson School history books are written from a certain perspective so things like this tend to be left out. They don’t want to show the bad along with the good. A very sanitized version of history. But without the bad, how will we ever do better?

¶ A worse mousetrap Last week we reported on the everworsening layoffs at Walt Disney World (“One in seven Orlando Disney employees will be laid off by New Year’s Eve,” Nov. 2), with the

‘THE BIGGEST LOSER’

news of another round of terminations for over 11,400 park employees on New Years Eve this year. Executive salaries are unaffected. @Joy Alyson Woods Brinson All business in Central Florida better brace themselves, the effects of this will be felt across sectors. @Cindy Bisson I wonder if we’ll be seeing a huge number of people moving out of Central Florida. The continued layoffs will trickle down to other businesses. @Eileen Hartley Until people can travel to America from the U.K. to visit the theme parks this will the case, but hopefully this time next year we will be able to come back. @Trish Anecki Well, if the governor would have kept things closed and mandated masks this wouldn’t be a problem. @Tammy Clement Lester It was crazy busy considering the “reduced capacity” this week. They need more cast members back, not less! But the ones that are working did a fantastic job with customer service and keeping the parks clean. @DeDe Kirby My heart breaks for these people. Please give to the food banks if you are still working. They’re going to need our help to survive. We can also help by following doctors’ recommendations to wear masks and only go out when you have to. No large gatherings. God bless. Be safe.

TRUMP IS OUT, BUT TRUMPISM ISN’T

Not so fast, Democrats – our long national nightmare isn’t over yet BY JE FFREY C. BIL L M A N

“How American conservatism dies is the most important story, by far, of this moment,” Matthew Sheffield, a co-founder of the right-wing media-criticism site NewsBusters, wrote in a mea culpa Twitter thread on Friday night. “Conventional media will never tell this story because their business is built on the lie that [Donald] Trump is an aberration rather than apotheosis.” Sheffield’s thread bemoaned the right’s susceptibility to bullshit – specifically, Trump’s lies about voter fraud – following decades of conservative propaganda. But here he touched on two ideas central to understanding modern American politics that warrant further exploration: 1) Conservatism is dead. 2) Trump is a symptom of conservatism’s collapse, not its cause; Trumpism lives on. By rights, Joe Biden won a decisive victory. Historically, defeating an incumbent first-term president is hard. It’s only happened three times in a century. Defeating rightwing populism is also hard. Biden won more than 300 electoral votes. When all is said and done, he’ll receive the support of the largest share of the voting-age population since Richard Nixon in 1972. Democrats kept the House, and, in January’s runoff elections in Georgia, they’ll have a chance to retake the Senate. Yet Tuesday night felt like a disappointment. In part, it was the order in which votes were counted and the uncertainty it produced. In part, it owed to polls foretelling a blue wave that never materialized. But mostly, it was because the goal wasn’t just to defeat Trump. It was to repudiate him and the spineless quislings who spent the last four years goose-stepping to his every utterance.

The 230,000 dead from COVID demanded a landslide. The children locked in cages demanded a landslide. The wanton corruption demanded a landslide. It didn’t happen. Instead, Democrats lost seats in Congress and state legislatures. And had the vote swung just a point in the other direction, the GOP would likely have had a governing trifecta in Washington. Such a close shave with illiberalism should prompt introspection. Dems juiced urban turnout, but Trump matched it in the exurbs and rural towns. He even made gains among Hispanic and Black voters. In some cases, there’s a ready explanation: In Cuban- and Venezuelan-heavy South Florida, the Trump campaign fear-mongered relentlessly – and effectively – about socialism on Spanish-language media. In other cases, Democrats simply got outhustled. To be sure, Biden overwhelmingly won BIPOC votes. He also offset Trump’s gains by winning white suburbs. But the returns made clear that Democrats have a messaging problem with some working-class voters – mostly lower-education whites, yes, but also some people of color who bought Trump’s promises of economic prosperity. Arguments about the soul of the nation and the dangers of authoritarianism resonated among college-educated Americans. Among everyone else, not so much. Within 48 hours of the election, introspection morphed into full recrimination. Moderates blamed progressives for Democrats’ lackluster showing, claiming that words like “socialism” and “defund” cost them seats.

Progressives countered that Black voters had secured Biden’s wins in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Arizona; claiming the attempt to chase white suburbanites is counterproductive. In a way, this exemplifies Democrats’ dilemma. They comprise a coalition party, drawing from disparate factions with little resemblance to each other. Only in the U.S. would Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Joe Manchin call the same party home. Republicans, meanwhile, are ideologically sorted and much more orthodox. They don’t need coalitions, and they have little use for those outside their base. In 2016, when Trump careened into office despite earning 2.9 million fewer votes than Hillary Clinton, Republicans governed not as a minority that drew its power from constitutional anachronisms, but as if they had a mandate from God to put partisan hacks on the federal bench and cut taxes for the rich. Implicitly, Trump’s votes were more legitimate than Clinton’s – more reflective of the “Real America” – an idea buttressed by countless New York Times features on MAGA types in Midwestern diners. This year, the implicit became explicit: Biden’s (ahem, urban) votes must be fraudulent, even if the GOP can’t prove it. (As one Pennsylvania state representative tweeted, “It remains to be proven but it appears Dems in Philly did not let a good crisis in COVID go to waste and ruined the integrity of our election process.”) The party’s radicalization is both a product and cause of its epistemic closure: Facts that deviate from its worldview must be discarded. For those of us outside the bubble, the results border on hilarity. On Saturday, for instance, Trump consigliore Rudy Giuliani held an amazing press conference outside of a Philadelphia landscaping shop – which was, chef ’s kiss, sited between a porn store and a crematorium – to insist there was a massive conspiracy to steal the election (evidence to come, pinky-swear!). But there are real-life consequences. The thin-gruel legal challenges will fail, but Trump is nonetheless refusing to turn over the keys to the Biden transition team, hampering an incoming administration that will inherit myriad crises. Trump, meanwhile, wants to host a series of MAGA rallies to complain that the election was fraudulent and Biden’s presidency is illegitimate – actions that could have dangerous consequences. Few prominent Republicans will get in his way; their devolution into mush-brained quislings who quake at the thought of a Trump tweet is complete. Trump’s shadow will linger for years, maybe decades after he’s gone. For the immediate future, he’ll be a kingmaker. It’s possible he’ll run again in 2024, or that Ivanka or Don Jr. will. It would be foolish to count them out. Consider this: More than 70 million people, after witnessing four years of the Trump Show, wanted to do it again. Whoever the next GOP nominee is, they’ll sing from Trump’s hymnal. Conservatism is dead. Trumpism remains. We’ll get a reprieve, a chance to inhale – and if Democrats prevail in the Senate runoffs in Georgia in January, an opportunity to inch forward on climate change and health care policy. But our long national nightmare isn’t over yet. Subscribe to Informed Dissent at InformedDissent.net.

Trump adviser attributes GOP win in Florida to doorknocking, rallies and successfully branding Dems as ‘socialists’ A top Florida campaign strategist for President Donald Trump credited outreach to a broad swath of voters and sophisticated use of data as playing key roles in Trump’s win Tuesday over Democrat Joe Biden in the state. Trump senior adviser Susie Wiles, in a three-page memo last Thursday, said the campaign focused on reaching out to “non-traditional Republican voter groups,” including conservative Jewish voters, parents of children who attend charter schools, Hispanics and Black voters in targeted counties. At the same time, she said the campaign worked to bring back voters who helped Trump carry the state in 2016. “Focusing on the Trump voter from 2016 was a priority,” Wiles wrote in the memo. “Often these voters were not members of a Republican Club — sometimes not Republicans — and not drawn to GOP ideology but rather to President Trump as a brand. Re-engaging them was important and proved critical to GOTV (get-out-the-vote) and voter contact efforts.” At the same time, Wiles described data as “king” and said the campaign “built margin through hyper-targeted voter registration, messaging, persuasion, and Get-Out-The-Vote efforts.” “We targeted strategic demographic groups that are not traditional Republican supporters with messaging that was uniquely tailored to them,” Wiles wrote. “These targeted messages leveraged the president’s position on issues or amplified negatively our opponent’s position on an issue of importance to targeted voters.” The memo offers a glimpse of behind-the-scenes efforts that helped Trump carry Florida by more than three percentage points, after pre-election polls showed the president and Biden in a toss-up race for the state’s 29 electoral votes. Trump defeated Biden by about 373,000 votes — more than triple the margin of his 2016 victory in Florida over Democrat Hillary Clinton — and carried 55 of the state’s 67 counties. After last Tuesday’s results became clear, heavy attention focused on Trump’s performance in Democrat-rich Miami-Dade County and particularly his performance among Cuban-Americans and other Hispanics. Biden carried Miami-Dade by nearly 85,000 votes, according to unofficial results. But that was a far cry from Clinton’s 290,147-vote margin in Miami-Dade in 2016. In part, Republicans pounded a message about Democrats being “socialists,” a description that hurt Biden among groups such as Cuban-Americans and VenezuelanAmericans. While Republicans maintained their longstanding dominance in rural and mid-sized counties statewide, Wiles said in the memo that Trump had a net gain of 224,331 votes in heavily Democratic Miami-Dade, Broward and Osceola counties. Also, Wiles pointed to outreach efforts that she said totaled about 27 million voter contacts through phone calls and door-knocking. She contrasted that with what she described as a Democratic strategy to focus on a “pony express absentee voter request campaign,” which allowed a “superhighway clear of all traffic for Trump Victory Florida to have historic participation.” She said data allowed the campaign to tailor messages to specific groups. “The team integrated data into every mode of communication — digital, mail, texting, canvassing and phones,” she wrote. During the campaign, Trump held a series of raucous rallies in the state, while Biden held smaller events as Democrats pointed to a need to take precautions against the

spread of COVID-19. Wiles wrote that the rallies played an important role for the Trump campaign to reach voters. “Additionally, Trump rallies are way too frequently dismissed as a gratuitous celebration for the base. Not so,” she wrote. “While the Trump base loves a rally — a cross between a Rolling Stones concert and a church revival — rallies are a tool to talk to voters the campaign would likely not be able to reach otherwise. Statistics tell us that on average 25%-35% of attendees at a rally are not Republicans and/or not registered to vote. Attendance at a rally, while free of charge, requires registration, which enables the campaign to determine a way to contact the attendee and allows that contact to include voter registration, if needed, and messaging for persuasion. There is no more effective tool to reach these voters and potential voters.” – by Jim Saunders, NSF

Downtown Orlando’s Halloween open alcohol ‘experiment’ perhaps ‘didn’t work out so well,’ admit city leaders Just as Dr. Frankenstein learned to his misfortune not to push science to its unholy limits, so city leaders expressed dismay that their own “experiment” in allowing open alcohol on closed downtown streets Halloween night resulted in massive, oft-maskless throngs packed tight into Downtown Orlando. Photos from Halloween night downtown began making the rounds of social media on Sunday after Halloween, and it looked pretty bad. In the photos, segments of Orange Avenue were sold-out-concert-level packed with revelers. During the following Monday afternoon’s post-Halloween Coronavirus Orange County COVID-19 Update on Nov. 2, local officials owned up to the bad decisions, and seemed more than a little concerned about the possibility of a superspreader event on their watch. Acknowledging that nearly 80 percent of the Halloween party people out that night were unmasked, Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer chalked the one-night open alcohol rule change as “an experiment that didn’t work out so well” and one that would not be “revisited.” “A lot of people were out there without masks, without social distancing, so I am concerned whether there was some spread of COVID Saturday night downtown,” said Dyer. Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings echoed Dyer: “It always concerns me when we have large crowds who aren’t doing the social distancing, aren’t wearing the facial coverings. They do so at their own peril.” Orange County health officer Dr. Raul Pino – who recently discouraged local parents from holding birthday parties for their kids after COVID outbreaks that were traced back to neighborhood parties – raised a note of alarm, saying the great majority of cases in the county skew toward young people, aged 15-35 (75 percent of those high school- and college-age). He said that the crowds of, yes, young adults out on Halloween gave him pause. “The situation in the data is very similar to where we were before Memorial Day and that concerns me,” said Pino. “Who knows if the numbers go higher what we will have to do? Because there are not that many tools left in the tool box, besides what no one wants. So it’s concerning.” On the other hand, Dr. Pino found a small shred of hope in that some people were at least outdoors. So now it’s a waiting game to see if there is a significant spike in November. – by Matthew Moyer orlandoweekly.com

NEW NE WS

STATE REP. ANNA ESKAMANI, HD-47, THINKS FLORIDA DEMOCRATS “NEED A WHOLE NEW DIRECTION.” | PHOTO BY EMILY WRAY

RED TIDE Florida is now a solidly GOP state. What are the Dems going to do about it? BY DARA KAM, NSF

Forget purple state. And don’t even think about blue state. Florida Republicans dominated last Tuesday’s elections from the top of the ballot on down, leaving Democrats searching for answers after more than two decades of GOP control of the state. In a victory that by Sunshine State standards was a landslide, President Donald Trump defeated Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden by more than three percentage points in Florida, more than doubling the edge he held over Democrat Hillary Clinton four years ago. Republicans upset two incumbent South Florida congresswomen, flipped five state House seats and could pick up a seat in the state Senate, making a mockery of Democrats’ hopes to cut into the GOP’s legislative dominance. The across-the-board losses leave Democrats and their state party in shreds as they begin to gear up for midterm elections in 2022, including a gubernatorial election. Even before Trump officially notched his win Tuesday night in Florida, some Democrats were calling for a state party shakeup. “I’m saying it now. We need a whole new direction for the @FlaDems,” state Rep. Anna Eskamani, D-Orlando, tweeted before 10 p.m. Tuesday. “We are losing too many incredible down ballot elected officials and candidates right now and it’s not ok. I know we have the potential to be better and do better. We do it everyday here in #HD47.” Eskamani, a firebrand liberal who was first elected to the House in 2018, won her re-election bid in Orange County’s House District 47 by more than 18,000 votes. “I want to be in a place of celebrating those victories, but 14

unfortunately the losses of the state of Florida is another reflection of just how broken our party is and how we continue to let consultants and corporations set our agenda,” she said during a Zoom call the morning after Election Day. Eskamani said her re-election came with marginal support from the Florida Democratic Party, adding that her political committee contributed more than $35,000 to help other candidates. Eskamani, who is seen as a rising star in what’s known as the “back row” where Democrats sit in the Florida House chamber, said the state party needs a top-to-bottom makeover. Throughout the day after the election, pressure mounted for the ouster of Florida Democratic Party Chairwoman Terrie Rizzo and party executive director Juan Peñalosa. Rizzo issued a statement late Wednesday that thanked people who “gave their blood, sweat, and tears to help Democrats win.” “While we are confident in the ultimate victory of Joe Biden, I know our Florida losses sting deep, for our party, the candidates, and the 5 million Florida Democrats looking to build on the progress we have made,” the statement said. “Together with our state and national partners, we need to do a deep dive to address data and turnout issues that caused these losses, and where our party goes from here.” But Eskamani said the party should begin with new leaders. “Step one is complete new leadership. The challenge is, who wants to step up,” Eskamani said. “It is challenging, but step one is to tell your friends that they’ve got to step back, and it isn’t easy.”

ORLANDO WEEKLY ● NOV. 11-17, 2020 ● orlandoweekly.com

Other strategists, however, noted that candidates at the top of the ticket have more control than party officials over the hiring of consultants and messaging. Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried, Florida’s only statewide elected Democrat, acknowledged that Florida Democrats “suffered some hard losses” on election night. “Our party needs to take a long hard look at what went wrong in the election, and how we move forward,” she said in a prepared statement. “As leaders, we must do better, and we must all work together to mend our fractured political system.” Amid state Democrats’ post-election autopsy, political experts agree that Florida is now decidedly in the red state column. Part of Trump’s success rested in his support from Hispanic voters in the state’s most populous county – Miami-Dade – as well as those along the I-4 corridor between Tampa Bay and Orlando. Trump began courting Cuban-Americans in MiamiDade not long after his 2016 White House victory, frequently traveling to the region and feting community leaders at his Mar-A-Lago home, Florida International University political science professor Dario Moreno told the News Service of Florida. He kept up the effort throughout the past four years and intensified the outreach to South Florida Hispanics – including emigres from Venezuela and Colombia – by painting Biden and Democratic vice-presidential candidate Kamala Harris as “socialists.” Biden made a series of missteps that alienated South Florida Hispanics, Moreno said, such as considering California Congresswoman Karen Bass as a running mate. Bass created a furor when she called Fidel Castro’s death “a great loss,” Moreno said. About 83 percent of Miami-Dade Republicans voted in the presidential election, compared to just 68 percent of Democrats, Moreno said. Trump’s messaging about the economy and job creation also resonated with Hispanics, including Puerto Ricans who had been targeted by Biden, according to Moreno. “Trump is a jerk, but he’s extremely politically cunning. I think this thing about firing [infectious disease expert Anthony] Fauci wasn’t misspoken. It was a signal to a lot of people that he was not going to lock down,” he said, referring to comments Trump made during an Opa-locka rally last week. “I think all those things combine.” Republican Party of Florida Chairman Joe Gruters, who also serves as a state senator from Sarasota, credited the GOP’s turnout machine, fundraising efforts by Gov. Ron DeSantis and legislative leaders, and the president himself for Tuesday’s red wave in Florida. “We won because of our ground game and the fact that we ran circles around the Democrats. We had a well-oiled machine. We were literally pounding the pavement every day,” Gruters said in a phone interview the day after the election. Democratic consultant Steve Vancore agreed that Republicans did a much better job than his party at getting voters to cast ballots, a frequent problem for Democrats. “As long as the Democratic Party is structured the way it is in Florida, you cannot expect change,” he said. “You need to tear it down and rebuild it.” feedback@orlandoweekly.com

Theater West End’s production of ‘Green Day’s American Idiot’ lured me out of the house to share air with strangers THE LOBBY OF THE REDESIGNED THEATER WEST END IN SANFORD | PHOTO BY SETH KUBERSKY

Ever since last spring’s lock-

down, I’ve been slowly emerging from a cocoon of Zoom-based entertainment, and I’ve started sampling socially distanced inperson events. Just in the past few weeks, I’ve enjoyed a drive-through haunted experience, a drive-by dance performance, an outdoor backyard cabaret and several limited-capacity theme park shows. But until last weekend, I’d avoided attending any full-length productions inside a traditional theater. However, my stress from the drawn-out election demanded a distraction, so last weekend I overcame my anxiety about sharing air with strangers long enough to make my long-awaited return to Theater West End for the opening night of Green Day’s American Idiot. What made me change my mind? First and foremost, the material. I saw the original New York production of American Idiot on Sept. 11, 2011, and although I wasn’t previously a huge fan of Green Day’s 2004 concept album, seeing the show on that grim anniversary was a gripping emotional experience, from the title track’s opening chords to the sing-along encore of “Time of Your Life.” I became mildly obsessed with the show and its pointed political message, which has only grown more relevant in recent years, and the hit-packed score that faithfully retains the original album’s raw punk-rock energy. It was disappointing that the national tour never reached Orlando, so I was thrilled when Theater West End slated its regional premiere for last April. Of course, the pandemic had other plans, but director Derek Critzer and producer Quinn Roberts worked tirelessly over recent weeks to bring their stage back to life. Originally, they planned to stage the show at Tuffy’s Bottle Shop & Lounge, but when that plan fell through due to permitting issues, they scrambled at the 11th hour to transform their home venue so that the show could finally make its belated debut last Friday night. Knowing the effort they

were putting in to make their stage safe (plus the fact that the play is only 90 minutes) gave me the courage to make the trek to Sanford and see for myself. Critzer apologized to me as I entered for some minor items that were still unfinished, but you wouldn’t guess there was any backstage chaos by looking at the beautifully redesigned theater. The rows of butt-numbing seats have all been removed and replaced with cabaret chairs and small cocktail tables. Each cluster of two or four seats is separated by a plexiglass barrier, providing at least the reassuring illusion of protection without ruining the sightlines of the three-quarter-thrust stage. Most important, masks are mandatory throughout the performance, not only for the audience, but also the actors (whose face coverings were coordinated with their costumes) and even the pit musicians perched in the corner. As far as plot goes, American Idiot is pretty bare-bones, with a book by composer Billie Joe Armstrong and Broadway director Michael Mayer that comprises barely two dozen lines of dialogue. Best friends Johnny (Claude Dylan IntriagoGodwin), Tunny (Phillip Edwards) and Will (Zachary Smith) want to escape from suburban Jingletown for a “Holiday” in the big city, but are pulled apart by drugs, war and parental obligations. Johnny, who fashions himself as the “Jesus of Suburbia,” becomes trapped between his love for Whatshername (Iris Johnson) and his heroin addiction, embodied by the Sid Vicious-esque St. Jimmy (Forrest Stringfellow). There’s just enough storyline and character development for audiences to identify with these angsty millennials’ existential despair, without pulling focus away from the powerhouse musical performances. After some initial opening-night awkwardness among the rhythm section, musical director Rebekah Piatt and her six fellow bandmates mostly nailed the score’s complex tempo changes, and the large chorus’

backup vocals blended beautifully on the songs “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” and “21 Guns,” which came complete with heartbreaking string accompaniment. The leads may not articulate as crisply as the Broadway stars did, but John Gallagher Jr. and Tony Vincent didn’t have to perform wearing face masks. I could understand at least half the lyrics, which is better than I can say about Billie Joe’s recordings. American Idiot’s Broadway staging employed a towering wall of digital displays and spectacular flying effects, but I said in my original review that it would work just as well in a grungy warehouse. Theater West End’s version largely proves me right, thanks to the intimacy of the environment and the enthusiastic passion of its youthful cast. And despite a limited budget, Critzer even managed to create a multiplicity of multimedia backdrops, beginning with a clever video prologue tracing the decline of American politics backward from Trump to George W. Bush. It was energizing experiencing American Idiot among a live audience again, and with the precautions being taken I felt for myself that it was worth the risk to go. Of course, this wouldn’t be a review if I didn’t find something to nitpick. Like several other shows of Critzer’s I’ve seen, his American Idiot is overstuffed with energy and movement, causing some subtle emotional moments to be overwhelmed by the sheer mass of bodies onstage. Michelle Alagna’s choreography borrows elements from Steven Hoggett’s pedestrian moshpit movements, but as delivered by a cast with widely differing dance abilities, it has an upbeat bouncy feel when it should be angrily driving downward. However, after a year with minimal human contact, if the worst I can say about a show is that it suffers from an overabundance of life, then that is high praise indeed. Now, will someone please wake me up when 2020 ends? skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Antica fires up the most drop-dead gorgeous Neapolitan pies in the city BY FAIYAZ KARA

yping this up on Election Night probably wasn’t the best idea, given I felt a lot like the Neapolitan pizzas spotlighted in this week’s review – a bit singed around the edges. It did, however, prove to be an effective distraction, and besides, I’d run out of fingernails to chew on. So, like many of you out there, I turned to pizza, the great ameliorator. In my case, this happened to be a leftover pie from Antica Pizzeria & Mozzarella Bar. Whether you stand on the side of civility and decency or, um, not, you probably enjoy a good pizza, and you won’t find any better than the ones fired up from this family-run operation in Altamonte. “We don’t Americanize anything here,” says owner and pizzaiolo Piergiorgio Quintiero, who hails from Calabria. “We make our pizza like we make them in Italy.” That means using finely milled Caputo Tipo “00” flour to fashion a dough that’s fermented for 72 hours before being gently stretched. It’s then ladled with San Marzano tomato sauce, plopped with buffalo mozzarella (from Caserta) and baked in a wood-fired Mugnaini oven. For proper fresh-baked feels, I reheated

my cold Election Night ’za, a blistered wonder with spicy Calabrian salami ($13.99), in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for five minutes. It came out almost as good as the margherita pizza ($11.99) I enjoyed – box on lap – the day before on the bench outside the restaurant. (Antica is closed to in-room dining during the weekdays but opens up on weekends.) My friend, an authority and connoisseur of Neapolitan pizza, noted the remarkable bubbling in the cornicione as well as in the thinnest sections of the crust. For Quintiero, baking the pizza at 770 degrees Fahrenheit for 100 seconds achieves the ideal result, and let me tell you, this drop-dead gorgeous round is one of the best Neapolitan pizzas you’ll have anywhere in the city. Hard-core margherita purists should know Quintiero adds the basil leaves after the pizza comes out of the oven. It gives the pizza more flavor, Quintiero says, to which his mother (and co-owner), Ida, nods in agreement. Ida, by the way, oversees the pastas at Antica, and her gnocchi

alla Sorrentina ($14.99), also enjoyed on the bench outside the restaurant, was an exercise in indulgence and comfort for three reasons: 1) the cushiony dumplings handmade by Ida herself; 2) the copious amount of melted mozzarella and parmigiano Reggiano; and 3) the cool autumn temperatures on this particular night. If you’re easily annoyed by constantly picking wispy strands of cheese off your chin after every bite, might I suggest Ida’s gratifying seasonal lasagna ($17.99), a tomato-sauceless stack of mushrooms, sausage, mozzarella and, ooh, pumpkin cream. ’Tis the season. Regarding the mozzarella bar, there isn’t an actual physical bar, but rather a section of the menu offering fior di latte ($11.99), buffalo mozz ($13.99) and burrata ($11.99). Cheeses are served with arugula, shaved parmigiana Reggiano and focaccia slices, but I’d recommend you do like us and throw some prosciutto di parma into the mix for $12.99. Ida makes some killer cannoli Siciliani ($8.99) as well, but we had our sights set on the newly opened Monte Gelato next door. Owner Giacomo Monte, a gelato maestro like his father and grandfather before him, makes his artisanal ice cream in a bevy of flavors. I ate as much straciatella at a table outside as I could, but had to take the rest home. I’m glad I did – it made the perfect ending to fingernails and pizza.

WHY IS THIS FEST DIFFERENT?

The Central Florida Jewish Film Festival goes virtual this time around, and adds some local flavor BY CAMERON MEIER

s with most 2020 events, the Central Florida the diversity and quality of this year’s program and the balance of narrative and documentary, drama and comJewish Film Festival is reinventing itself. For the first time in its 22-year history, the edy, and domestic and international filmmaking.” most popular of Enzian Theater’s mini-fests will be held entirely online, with six features and two shorts streamCENTRAL FLORIDA ing Nov. 14-16. And in another first, the fest will include JEWISH FILM FESTIVAL two films by local directors. 7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14 through “We’re thrilled to be able to include two acclaimed 11:59 p.m. Monday, Nov. 16 shorts this year that have local roots,” says Matthew online only Curtis, Enzian programming director. “Both Resemblance enzian.org and The Shabbos Goy are by Central Florida filmmakers $12-$60 [Kevin O’Neill and Talia Osteen]. We’re very happy with

The decision to go virtual is somewhat surprising considering Enzian is currently screening films in-person and was able to host a safe Florida Film Festival in August. However, this wasn’t Enzian’s decision to make unilaterally, and it came down to demographics. “Our demographic skews significantly older, and we didn’t feel comfortable holding it in person this year,” says Keith Dvorchik, chief executive officer of the Roth Family Jewish Community Center of Greater Orlando, which co-sponsors the festival. “Our committee spoke with Matthew [Curtis] and Enzian, and they agreed to our request to go virtual this year. We are very excited and hopeful that the Central Florida Jewish Film Festival will be back in person in 2021.” A festival pass, which provides access to all films, costs $60, while access to a single film is $12. The all-festival passes are limited to Florida residents, and just 200 will be sold. For more information, visit enzian.org. As Curtis suggests, the films represent a satisfying balance of subjects, tones and genres. As with any festival, quality is inconsistent, but even the two weakest offerings, the food documentary Breaking Bread and the coming-ofage dramedy Shiva Baby, will find their audience. The former, directed by Beth Elise Hawk, is the story of Nof Atamna-Ismaeel, an Arab living in Israel. She strives

Károly Hajduk and Abigél Szõke in Those Who Remained to bring Jews and Muslims together through cuisine, proudly proclaiming, “I believe there is no room for politics in the kitchen.” To achieve that goal, she founded Haifa’s A-Sham Arabic Food Festival. Meat-eating foodies might embrace the film, but as a piece of cinema, Breaking Bread fails to rise and, at 85 minutes, somehow seems both stretched thin and rushed. Despite its best intentions, there are only so many ways to say “let’s all get along.” (The film is also a stomach-rumbling reminder that, with a virtual festival, you don’t get real food. You can’t stream blintzes.) Shiva Baby holds more charm and has been receiving praise at LGBT festivals for its awkwardly honest, claustrophobic portrayal of a young woman torn between her family’s expectations, her religion and her sexuality. Relative newcomer Rachel Sennott, in particular, has drawn praise for her nuanced performance. But, as with Breaking Bread, this debut feature from writer-director Emma Seligman (based on her own short) never quite fills its runtime. And despite moments of laughter and poignancy, the film – which is essentially one long scene at a Jewish funeral gathering – leaves one with a palpable feeling of “Is that all?” Shiva Baby is accompanied by the aforementioned The Shabbos Goy, a comedy concerning a uniquely Orthodox Jewish conundrum. Directed by Talia Osteen, who grew up in Longwood, the film is an encore from the Florida Film Festival. Though the humor is a bit too broad for this writer, the short film is memorable for its great lead performance by Milana Vayntrub, known mostly for her recent television work. Look for big things from her. Representing a leap in quality – sensing a trend? – The Crossing is a Norwegian drama about two Jewish children’s remarkable attempt to flee Nazi persecution by traversing the border into neutral Sweden during the

height of World War II. Seen through the eyes of the kids, the movie, directed by Johanne Helgeland, has shades of Jojo Rabbit and The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, though it’s far tamer than both. Indeed, with its simplicity, lack of violence and almost fairy-tale vibe, the movie might be suitable for a younger audience (if that audience can sit through subtitles).

Aulcie, the extraordinary story of American-Israeli basketball player Aulcie Perry, is a great change of pace. Hey, when was the last time you saw a sports documentary at a Jewish festival? Putting jokes about stereotype aside, director Dani Menkin does a good job – despite some slight overproduction and underreporting – of relaying a remarkable tale of a national hero’s rise, fall and redemption. Another unconventional selection is Asia, a film that, although made and set in Israel, has seemingly little to do with Israeli/Jewish culture. But it also happens to be one of the fest’s two best offerings. Russian immigrants Asia (Alena Yiv) and Vika (Shira Haas) are more like friends than mother and daughter until a sudden illness forces them to re-examine their relationship and their lives. The emotional impact of that re-examination takes a while to build, and, under the direction of first-timer Ruthy Pribar, the storytelling isn’t always as crisp as it could be. But the payoff is profound. If you have time or money for just one film, make it Those Who Remained. Directed tenderly by Barnabás Tóth, this was Hungary’s entry for the 2020 Academy Awards. It’s 1948, and middle-aged Jewish doctor Aldo (Károly Hajduk) is soul-scarred from the war. All alone in the world, he finds an unexpected companion in 16-yearold Klara (Abigél Szõke). “Why do you live?” she asks him. “Is there any real answer to that?” he responds. But, despite all odds, they find a reason – together. Those Who Remained is partnered with Kevin O’Neill’s Resemblance, and it’s a fitting pairing considering both films take the tragically familiar topic of Nazi persecution and apply unexpectedly original alterations. If you think you’ve seen all that the genre has to offer, you’ve got another think coming. And isn’t that what film festivals are for? feedback@orlandoweekly.com PHOTOS COURTESY ENZIAN THEATER

THE WORLD CAN’T WAIT

Yes, Brit DJ icon Paul Oakenfold is playing Orlando BY MATTHEW MOYER

n what still seems like a frankly unbelievable development at this point in 2020, legendary British DJ Paul Oakenfold is indeed playing Orlando this Saturday. As part of a two-show, bi-coastal swing – also taking in the Dreamstate drive-in rave in San Bernardino, California – Oakenfold is headlining Ace Cafe’s new outdoor concert field in the heart of downtown Orlando. Orlando Weekly spoke to Mauricio Arroyave, director of operations for event promoters GMF, and he was well aware of (and not dismissive of ) the COVID spike in Florida. Safety measures like temperature checks and required mask-wearing will be in place at the show, not to mention taking the whole event outside. And like it or not, EDM and dance events are in full swing all over the city. “This is a fully outdoor concert experience,” says Arroyave. “We chose Paul Oakenfold as our first event in this location, because he has crossed the bridge between generations, and unites vast genres of electronic music.” On the telephone last week, Oakenfold seemed genuinely excited to get back to doing what he does best and sharing his music with people again. He has a new album (Shine On) and a hot new collab with Luis Fonsi (of “Despacito” mega-fame), “The World Can Wait.” This is a man who has been playing gigs all over the world almost constantly for decades, and he wants to get back to work. At the same time, Oakenfold – who has been quarantining in Los Angeles for the duration of 2020 – was clear-eyed about the continuing pandemic and the accompanying caution fatigue, asking this writer about mask-wearing and open venues in Central Florida. In fact, there was a touching moment in our conversation where, when asked about his plans after the shows, Oakenfold copped to just wanting to check in on his mum back in the U.K. In the dance music world, there are few bigger stars than Paul Oakenfold. His influence across genre is vast, his ability to move a dancefloor is uncanny. And he’ll be here in mere days. Be on your best behavior, Orlando.

How are you doing? Excellent! In the recording studio, making new music to play at my first show of the year. In Orlando! I’m excited. So how did this come together? My agent reached out and said, “There’s a show, would you like to do it?” And I was pleasantly surprised, put it that way, because I didn’t think I’d be working this year. How are you getting in the right headspace to get back out there after so many months? That’s a good question actually, because I’ve been thinking about it already. Am I in the right headspace? I’ve started to go downstairs to my studio and play records and see what works in what key. Usually you’re in such a rhythm, and to break that rhythm … This is my first show of the year, and it’s November. So I’ve got to find that rhythm again and find that place that was just natural, which is playing, week after week after week. Any plans for your sets? I think that people are actually going to want to hear a couple of classics because they’re so excited to be back out, so I’ve done some brand-new remixes of some classics. And I’m going to play a lot of the music for the first time from my new album. How are you going to approach a drive-in rave? I’ve never done one. I don’t know what it’s going to be like. I’m curious. Are you going to say, “Honk your horns!” or anything like that … “Honk your horns if you like this track! You know, that’s a good one, actually. I might say that! Do you have any notable memories of past shows in Orlando? Orlando was one of the first places where breakbeat in America really hit, so I think Orlando has long been on the cutting edge when it comes to electronic music. I believe

Construct: Our Orlando

In the third iteration of the Mennello’s Construct: Our Orlando group show, curators pulled up two locals: Don Rimx and art collective Lemon Press.

Lemon Press (Anna Cruz and Adam Lavigne) combine painting, cartooning and installation to address time and memory – something we are all wrestling with in this bizarre locked-down pandemic year – recording 2020’s loss and potential through a fictional language inspired by hieroglyphs and other ancient systems of communication. $5.

NOV. 11-17, 2020 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY

“FOUR PLAY” Why are threesomes so much more accepted in the popular imagination than foursomes? I was just googling “finding foursomes” and the first result is an article about threesomes that takes for granted that people are looking for MFF. That is a form of heteronormativity, right? I am not judging threesomes, of course, but asking why foursomes are perceived as more taboo. Would be interested in knowing more about what you think about this or if you have any resource to recommend as I am approaching this now with my partner for the first time. Willing To Foursome I don’t think the popular imagination has conspired against foursomes or that foursomes are really that much more taboo than threesomes, WTF. Rather, I think threesomes are easier to arrange than foursomes and the popular imagination reflects that fact. Think about it: Finding two people who wanna fuck each other is hard. Finding three people who all wanna fuck each other is harder still. Adding a fourth person to the mix makes the math infinitely more complicated. Which is not to say everybody fucks everybody during a threesome, of course, but at the very least everyone involved has to at least be OK with fucking in very close proximity to everyone else involved. And while complicated to arrange and often emotionally tricky, WTF, threesomes aren’t really that taboo. According to research into sexual fantasies done by Dr. Justin Lehmiller, it’s the single most common sexual fantasy. More than 90 percent of men and nearly 90 percent of women fantasize about having a threesome, according to Lehmiller’s research; according to other research, roughly one in five people have actually participated in at least one threesome. (Full discloser/cumblebrag: I lost my virginity in an MMF threesome.) MFF threesomes are heteronormative by design, e.g. they were arranged to fulfill a straight man’s standard-issue fantasy, but judging from my mail just as many MFF threesomes are arranged to fulfill the samesex desires of often-but-not-always-newlyout bisexual women who already have husbands or boyfriends – less heteronormative and more bi-supportive/bi-explorative. (My mail isn’t scientific evidence, I realize, but it’s what I’ve got.) And for the record I don’t think there’s anything wrong with a heteronormative threesome. Straight guys should be allowed to have and realize their sexual fantasies without being shamed, just like everyone else, so long as they’re realizing them with consenting adult partners. And while straight guys have historically done most of the judging and shaming of nonstraight/non-guys over the entire course of 46

human history, the corrective isn’t to heap shame on them. It’s to demand that no one should be shamed for their sexual fantasies, and we demonstrate our commitment to that principle by not shaming anyone – not even a straight guy – who seeks to realize their sexual fantasies with other consenting adults. And finally, WTF, there is one place where foursomes are far less taboo and could even described as standard: the organized, mostly straight and often supremely heteronormative swingers’ scene. If you and your partner are of the opposite sex and are interested in or willing to settle for strictly heterosexual sex where men are concerned, you might find more luck arranging foursomes at swingers’ parties – once those parties are possible again – than on dating apps. Where do I go from here? My parents voted for Trump in 2016 and again in 2020. I’m a lesbian. My partner and I have been together for nearly 20 years. My parents have always been supportive; we have a great relationship. But I can’t reconcile their vote for this piece of trash. They’re not even prolife or religious. I genuinely don’t understand. What The Fuck Do I Do Now? My dad voted for George W. Bush in 2004. Bush’s campaign was pushing anti-gay marriage ballot initiatives across the country in the hopes that bigots would turn out in huge numbers and put his incompetent ass back in the White House. The fact that the thenpresident of the United States – the worst one we thought we’d see in our lifetimes – was waging a demagogic campaign against one of his own children didn’t stop my dad from voting for him. For a second time. I didn’t stop talking to my father. While I believe we have to confront family members about their bigotries and that there have to be social consequences when people vote for racism and fascism and oligarchy and corruption and disease and death, WTFDIDN, I don’t think cutting off contact with non-toxic/non-QAnon parents or family members is the answer. Where there’s evidence of cognitive dissonance – and a family member voting for someone seeking to harm people they love is certainly evidence of cognitive dissonance – there’s also an opportunity. So I would urge you to express your displeasure to your parents and demand better from them and to keep bringing it up. While text messages from strangers and robocalls often fail to move people, appeals to conscience – sometimes angry ones – from family members often work. I’ve heard from a lot of people over the last few months whose parents voted for Trump in 2016 but voted for Biden this year.

ORLANDO WEEKLY ● NOV. 11-17, 2020 ● orlandoweekly.com

I wish I could say my dad was one of them. Maybe next time. There are elections coming up in 2022 and there’s a high likelihood we will see a Trump on the ballot in 2024. (There are two special elections in Georgia in January that will determine who controls the U.S. Senate!) The parents who disappointed you and endangered our democracy in this election are likelier to come around before the next election if you demand answers from them now. I’d like to think I am pretty open and understanding to a lot of things. I met a hot guy at my job who says he has a fetish for ass. In a sexting session, I learned he was not only obsessed with my ass, but me playing with his too. He later revealed there was only one other woman he felt comfortable sharing his gay fantasies with. Everything involved ass play, sucking dildos or DP. I asked him if he was curious about gay sex and he said no. In no way does he want a man, he said, and everything he wanted done to him he wanted a woman to do. We’ve had several sexting sessions and it always shifts to me dominating him or a gay sex fantasy. I really want to be open but he is making this hard. Questioning Unusual Exceptionally Erotic Relationship This would be easier if you were clear with yourself about what you want and what’s possible. If you want a long-term relationship that doesn’t revolve around ass play and you couldn’t possibly enjoy a casual sexual adventure with a hot guy who isn’t a good potential long-term partner … then you should stop sexting with him. But if you’re up for a crazy, ass-centered sexual adventure with a hot guy that won’t lead to anything serious or long-term … then get yourself a strap-on dildo and order this not-gay guy to get on his not-gay knees and suck your not-gay dick. I suspect you feel tense after sexting with this guy because you’re left thinking, “My God, what am I signing up for here?” The animating assumption being that “going there” means getting stuck there. But if you told yourself you were only signing up for a crazy night or a crazy weekend instead with this ass-obsessed dude and not a lifetime with him, you would most likely feel a lot less nervous about this connection. Being open to playing with this guy doesn’t mean you have to be open to dating him, much less marrying him. On the Lovecast, Dan consults a rabbi: savagelovecast.com mail@savagelove.net
