You just can’t park at the Rail Runner’s Zia/ St. Francis Drive station. That’s the main reason for diminished ridership on this great rail line to Albuquerque. A real stop at Zia will be best for many of us—a big shopping area is right across St. Francis Drive and this stop is close to the center of our commuting people. Next Rail Runner stop is on 599, way down in the boonies. There’s a lot of open space at the Zia stop for real parking (not just silly “Kiss and Ride”).

Since the Rail Runner started, I’ve driven my car twice to Albuquerque. Do people know you can ride free on Albuquerque transit by showing your Rail Runner receipt, and it’s the same in Santa Fe? I wonder why during the week after 7:13 am, the next train is 1:02 pm (a six-hour wait). What’s wrong with this picture?

Why would officials want to build a station on private land at Zia Road and St. Francis Drive, a very heavily trafficked intersection, and later state the owner wants to add apartments, shops and parking at the same location? Could it be another pay-to-play scheme?

Wouldn’t the station be better on St. Michael’s Drive in the old Greyhound bus station? During the opera season, why doesn’t the Rail Runner partner with Santa Fe Trails and run service to the opera? You must spend money to make money and be convenient to the public. It’s not that hard to figure.

When you can’t lead a horse to water, take a camel LEFT: Sunny Khalsa and her camel Mishach are planning a big trip.

BOTTOM: A fossilized ancient camel footprint at White Sands National Monument.

BY L E A H CA N TO R l e a h @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

S

unny Khalsa, tall woman in white cowboy boots and denim, clucked softly at her camel Mishach as she led him around the parking lot of the New Mexico School for the Arts. On their way from Texas to Colorado, they stopped in Santa Fe on Monday April 22 to pick up a hat from longtime friend and local hat maker Scott O’Farrell, whose shop is right down the street from the school.

Catching sight of the unlikely duo out in the lot, students left their classrooms and gathered at the fence to watch Khalsa gently tap at the camel’s feet with a long red and white striped fringed rod to encourage the animal to kneel, stand or move forward.

The sight of a camel cruising through downtown Santa Fe felt nothing short of surreal. But what locals might find even more surprising is the fact that there have been times in this region’s history when the sight would hardly have seemed so unusual. And long, long before there were people or coyotes or deer here, there were camels. Mishach is the most recent participant in a millennia-long story of camels’ movements across the region.

Khalsa says she’s always had a flair for the eccentric. She grew up in a Sikh com-

munity outside of Española and attended Alameda Elementary and Carlos Gilbert Junior High in Santa Fe before leaving to attend high school at a boarding school in India. As a kid, she says, she often rode her horse to school. Khalsa always felt more comfortable traveling by horseback than by foot or vehicle, and has spent most of her professional adult life training wild horses. But this is the first time she’s ever trained a camel, and the stakes are high; in the mid-May she, Mishach and her horse will set out on a month-long trek out to the Grand Canyon.

The trip, says Khalsa, was inspired by Carol Bishop Stanley, the founder of Ghost Ranch in Abiquiú. In the early 1900s, Stanley and a group of other women traveled together across the rugged Southwest, taking several trips from Northern New Mexico and Colorado to the Grand Canyon. Khalsa spent many years working at Ghost Ranch, and as soon as she read Bishop Stanley’s biography, Ladies of the Canyon, she knew she wanted to do a trek along their original route.

“I read the Ladies of the Canyon and I was just so inspired by all of these incredible women living outside the box, not doing the norm, in a time when that was really outrageous. They were extraordinary people, and I felt especially connected to their story because I worked at the ranch for so long,” says Khalsa.

She wanted to do the trek on her own, but she quickly realized that a single horse would not be able to carry enough water to traverse the distance between the small desert towns spread thin along the route.

The solution? Take a camel.

As bizarre as it is to see a camel loping down the street in downtown Santa Fe, SFR was even more surprised when Khalsa said the camels of the Middle East originated in North America. Once upon a paleological time, ancient camels roamed the vast savannas that covered the landscapes of what is now Northern New Mexico. As it turns out, camels also played an important though mostly forgotten role in the more recent history of the American West.

“Prehistoric camels used to live right in the area around what is now Española.

Because of the fossil record we know that there were actually many different species of camels,” Santa Fe artist Phoebe Adams tells SFR. Adams is an amateur paleontologist and former member of the Amateur Paleontological Club in Albuquerque.

Several years ago she found pieces of fosCOURTESY NATIONAL PARK SERVICE

The surprising history of camels in New Mexico, plus one woman’s Grand Canyon camel trek

silized bone on BLM land in the badlands that stretch southeast and southwest of Española. Adams estimates that the bone is 10 to 15 million years old.

“It’s marvelous to think that what our land looks like now is not what it looked like before,” says Adams.

The New Mexico Geological Society estimates that around 60% of the fossilized skeletons found by members of the Santa Fe chapter of the group between 1924 and 1965 belonged to camels.

Scientists believe that for 40 of the 45 million years that camels have existed on Earth, they could only be found in North America. The largest herds roamed across the Trans Pecos region of Texas and the southern portion of New Mexico.

At White Sands National Monument near Alamogordo, a set of prehistoric camel tracks can be found leading out across the rock flats.

Three to 7 million years ago, one branch of camels migrated south towards South America, eventually becoming the llamas of today. Another branch of camels traveled north, crossing the Bering Straits into Asia. These are the ancestors of modern camels. Native camels in North America went extinct, killed off by disease, hunting and changing climates.

Several million years went by, and then in 1855, camels came back on the scene when Jefferson Davis started the US Camel Corp, sending out troops with militarized camels to secure the territory won in the Mexican American War along routes that often passed through New Mexico. The Army used camels to police local tribes including the Hopi, who gave Khalsa permission to cross their land on her trip with the request that she and Mishach attend a community discussion of the violence inflicted upon the tribe by the US Camel Corp.

After the Civil War, Army camels were auctioned off to traders, miners and circuses, or let loose to roam through the desert. During the Gold Rush they became such a popular form of transportation that owners of major horse ranches felt threatened and lobbied local governments to ban transport by camel.

By the 1920s, camels had once again disappeared from the West’s trails and mesas. Today they are slowly making a second comeback with wilderness adventure companies. The most popular camel trekking company is located outside of Fort Davis, Texas, and takes visitors on camel tours of Big Bend.

Khalsa says that if her Grand Canyon trip is successful, she hopes to start a camel trekking adventure company to take tours through the Four Corners region.

Ms. Wheelchair New Mexico talks advocacy, her GoFundMe and what its like to live in a wheelchair

Ramping up Advocacy

Delgado and her husband Jeremiah at the Special Needs Prom last Saturday

BY W I L L CO ST E L LO w i l l @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

A

midst the revelry at the fifth annual Special Needs Prom, held last Saturday at the Blaze Christian Fellowship off Rancho Viejo Boulevard, Irene Delgado sat poised.

Crowned Ms. Wheelchair New Mexico in March, the Santa Fe resident graced the prom with her royal presence for the first time. At an event that celebrates difference rather than fearing or pitying it, Delgado tells SFR that she hopes her story shows others who might be different that they deserve the same treatment as everyone else.

“I want my platform to be called ‘Every Disability Creates New Abilities,’” Delgado says, adding that the prom is a good example of what she wants to accomplish. “Let’s have more events in the community for people not to be shy of who they are, and come out from behind their veils. In all reality, everybody’s story could help somebody.”

Royalty amidst a throng of people who were all crowned prom kings and queens that very day, Delgado is just another prom-goer here, but her impact could spread far beyond.

After the Ms. Wheelchair America competition in July, Delgado plans to head to the New Mexico Legislature to advocate for policies that will better serve the disabled.

“More handicap parking, especially more ramps,” Delgado says of her top issues. “I feel like there’s less ramps in this community. A lot of times when I was in the motorized wheelchair, I would have to go all the way around some places.

Every facility should have at least two.”

Delgado also advocates for more affordable driving schools for people with disabilities, an issue she has also personally struggled with. “I started to go to driving school, and it’s $125 an hour,” she says.

Since its inception in 1972, the pageant has steadily spread across the country, and Delgado is the first delegate from New Mexico. Contacted by a representative from the organization who hoped to get more states on board, Delgado, a full-time advocate, applied and was subsequently

crowned. She plans to establish a state pageant after her reign ends next spring.

The competition isn’t a standard beauty pageant, but rather “a recognition of free spirits” who just happen to be in wheelchairs. The contestants are judged on their accomplishments, not their physical appearances. Contestants will pit their interview, public speaking and Q&A skills against one another for the title.

Her trip won’t be a vacation either: held in Little Rock, Arkansas, from July 1-7, the week will be chock full of leadership seminars and will last from 7 am to 9 pm.

But, just like everyone else, in order to make her mark, she’s going to need a little help. The national Ms. Wheelchair event begins on July 1, and she needs cash to get there.

A $1,000 entry fee is required to compete in the national competition by June 1, and Delgado needs another $1,000 for travel and lodging costs. She’s set up a GoFundMe, but has raised only $320 towards her goal. She’s already put $1,000 towards the state competition, helped along by a sponsorship by Kia of Santa Fe. It’s just one more obstacle in a life that has been full of them. Delgado’s spine was twisted in utero, and she’s been in a wheelchair her whole life. But that hasn’t stopped her from advocating for disabled people, volunteering at wheelchair sports camps and helping out at homeless shelters.

“I was never really brought up around other people with disabilities,” she says.

“I was around pretty able-bodied people.

Being around them, they treated me no different, so I came to treat myself that way as well, to be treated like anybody else. I joined cheerleading. I’m not afraid to go after what I want to do. And I want that for everyone else. To not be afraid.

It took me a while to get my courage, to get that courage to go out. Now that I’m outspoken and able to communicate more with the community, it feels good.”

andita Dinesh is the most radical, intelligent and progressive theater professional you’ve never heard of.

Born in India, she attended United World College in her home country in the early aughts.

From there, with a keen interest in acting and human rights, she pursued a masters in performance at the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University and earned a practice-based research doctorate degree in drama from the University of Cape Town in South Africa.

That’s about where it got wild.

Motivated to do more than just act and Nandita Dinesh be an activist, during her PhD program, she created the decided to combine the two, exploring how installation You & Distant Wars, theater can both work within a context of which opens trauma and explore societal ills. But not this weekend. through conventional means like playwriting or even experimental performances; Dinesh wanted to actually get inside her audiences’ thoughts via durational performances that could last up to 24 hours. She blended politics, education, critical empathy and unconventional activism to explore how experiences—not just sitting in a seat and staring at a stage—can actually change the lives and brains of audiences, whether she was working with genocide survivors or rich Indians, incarcerated juveniles or middle-class Santa Feans.

Dinesh started her groundbreaking work in Rwanda and has worked and researched in Kenya, Northern Ireland, Guatemala and many other locales around the world. Her seminal piece was Chronicles from Kashmir, a highly controversial project presented in her home region in 2013. She began teaching at the New Mexico branch of her alma mater, UWC in Montezuma, in 2016, but realized last year that she needed to strike out on her own and pursue her experimental passion full-time through her own organization Theatre.

Immersion. Education. (theatreandjustice.org).

That brings us to 2019. Dinesh has built You & Distant Wars, an educational installation in downtown Santa Fe—opening Friday May 10 and available to visit weekends through May 31—which explores the conflict in the

COURTESY NANDITA DINESH

region of Jammu and Kashmir, on the borders of India, Pakistan and China. She discussed with SFR what led to its creation.

The installation presents Santa Fe with a unique opportunity to explore the unknown in many ways: Meet Dinesh, who’s flown under our radar for too long; experience an educational installation, the likes of which we’ve never seen; learn about a region likely few of us could point out on a map; and explore why the conflict in South Asia might matter to us in the Southwest.

How did you come to this very specific field of experiential theater in conflict zones?

For my bachelor’s, I did theater and economics. … As a former United World College student myself, part of the notion of that education is asking you to see how everything can serve a larger purpose. So when I discovered my passion for theater, it became a case of, ‘Okay, where can it be more useful? Where can it intervene?’

And one thing leads to another, and spaces of conflict are where many artists want to intervene, or where not many people think there is art, because it’s a war. And then you go there and you realize there are people still making art; they see it as a need, not as a luxury. That drive kept pushing me forward.

COURTESY NANDITA DINESH

Above and below: Scenes from Chronicles from Kashmir, a 24-hour performance Dinesh and her ensemble put on in Asia in 2013.

You consider Chronicles from Kashmir, which you started in 2013, your seminal work.

It’s been my most ambitious project to date; the notion of creating a 24-hour performance and living with audience members—and the censorship that came as a result. We thought of ourselves as a group of small-time people doing a small-time project, and to see the establishment react to that in such a severe way—that, in both positive and negative ways, taught me a lot about the world and censorship and art.

Okay, so first, give us a quick crash course about the conflict in Kashmir.

The shortest way to describe it is that it’s a struggle for control of land between India, Pakistan, China and Kashmir. What you’ll often hear is that it’s a struggle between India and Pakistan, and that’s the narrative in which I grew up, but the reality is there’s a strong independence movement in Kashmir.

Historically, Jammu and Kashmir encapsulated three regions that are currently under India and two regions that are under Pakistan. Of the three regions that are currently under India, one of them is Hindu-dominated, one of them is Muslim-dominated, and one of them is Buddhist majority, called Ladakh.

And there’s an area on the Ladakh border

that is in dispute with China. … What used to be Jammu and Kashmir is now three nation-states, and not only is it a question of which nation-state is staking claim, but groups of people within those areas want autonomy.

So what was Chronicles from Kashmir, in a nutshell?

I wanted to explore the gray zones of the conflict. A lot of times in the mainstream media, especially in the Indian subcontinent, depending on where you are in the

country or where on the political spectrum, you hear a very polarized narrative; Indian army good, Indian army bad. Civilians victims, or civilians terrorists.

Sounds familiar.

Yeah. So what I was interested in was, what are the spaces within these groups where it’s really hard to tell who’s victim and who’s perpetrator—but at the same time, without downplaying the fact that it’s civilians who face the brunt of it? … [During the 24-hour performance,] the

audience goes from one space to another, and in each space, they encounter a different narrative. … But you can’t inundate them with information. The information has to be presented in different ways. So we did a lot of research into adult learning; what are the time intervals in which people learn best? When do you have to start moving them because they’ve been sitting for too long? What are some cases in which you want them to feel bored?

Every vignette within the 24 hours is curated to show different perspectives, but also to invoke different pedagogies. In some, they’re watching; … in some, they’re in the action. And some of the spaces are exactly like what I’m going to set up in the Oxygen Bar, which are far more immersive installations. There are various exhibits that you can interact with in different ways. You can choose not to interact with them; you can choose to spend hours in them, you can choose to leave early. It’s up to you.

How does that project inform what you’re presenting in Santa Fe this month?

I’m obsessed with immersive aesthetics, and how those aesthetics get people to personalize things that would otherwise not be personal. In a city like Santa Fe, where there’s clearly a difference between more privileged and less privileged people, and the people who are in positions of privilege have a ridiculous amount of privilege—and I count myself among them—how do we channel our resources and our empathy and our agency in ways that are truly critical and helpful and poignant?

So the larger question is: Why should what is happening in Kashmir matter to us here? One of the things that we discovered in looking at adult learning pedagogy is that adults learn best when they know why they’re learning what they’re learning. If you show them something about Kashmir and don’t say why they might want to consider it in the context of Santa Fe, they’re less likely to parse that information and store it. But if you say, ‘This is why it’s personal and these are ways in which you might remain engaged with this’—it’s an interesting balance between indulging the self of the spectator but focusing on the other. …

We have a spreadsheet [of Chronicles from Kashmir] where we’ve analyzed, ‘There are X number of scenes in which the civilians are being seen as victims, so I need to have at least one scene where the army is shown as a victim, because if I don’t show that, Indians are never going to listen.’ But if you read just one scene CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

from the play and get pissed off by it, that’s all it needs for me to get a charge of sedition, right? So that fear is there.

Sedition? What’s that about?

If you engage with Kashmir as anyone in India, you’re going to be surveilled.

For a long time I was sure my phone was tapped. … [India has] these sedition laws, where they can easily put a treason charge on you. If you have a case pending about you, you can’t leave [India]. … If someone files something based on something they read, [and I travel there,] they can keep me there indefinitely.

photographs that could easily have led to charges of sedition or potentially even arrest. We had to cancel our show. …

So that’s when we said, ‘Okay, let’s just focus on getting the script out and the film, before we’re officially shut down.’ … And so finally, during the filming of Chronicles, for the first week, everything was fine. We were shooting at a school.

But then I got an email from the director of the summer program that was hosting us that said, ‘You’ve gotta be out of here by tomorrow.’ … Someone in the town got wind that there were Kashmiri actors, and was threatening to use it to malign the school.

What did that censorship look like for Chronicles?

(Laughs) Where to start? … There are various things that happened. There’s the kind of censorship that happens in Kashmir, where people are just afraid of saying the wrong thing to the wrong person. And my [pro-Pakistan or pro-independence] colleagues were uncertain of being associated with someone who’s Indian, because then people might think that their associations are suspect. So there’s an automatic self-censorship that happens. …

When we actually performed the 24hour piece … the cops showed up, refused to read the script because it was too long, but they were taking decontextualized COURTESY NANDITA DINESH

What is so challenging about Chronicles?

Chronicles is targeted toward privileged Indians—like me. And every time we’ve taken the piece outside of Kashmir, we’ve been shut down. We took the piece to Western India, the cops showed up. When

we were doing the filming of the piece, we were essentially placed under house arrest. … When you delve into stuff that’s really important, that really pushes boundaries, somebody’s gonna shut you down.

Dinesh says she made a move to a solo-crafted installation room to forego an ensemble in order to protect others.

And where was the school located?

I’m not allowed to say. That was the deal, eventually. I crowdfunded half of it, and half of it was our own money, and it was an ensemble of 14, 15 of us—and I was like, ‘I can’t afford to take them back tomorrow.’ … So I went to the facilities manager and said the only ‘deal’ I could come up with … was that we go into voluntary house arrest. There was one building that they had given us, up in the mountains, and I said we would film everything in and around that building. A couple of us will go to the cafeteria every day and bring our food up.

No one will know that we we’re still here. … We’re not allowed to give [the school] any credit in the movie, we don’t use any identifying material in the movie, we don’t mention where we shot it. It’s like we were never there. At the end of it, we were all just claustrophobic.

So, more specifically, what does the installation of You & Distant Wars look like?

Without giving away too much … there’s one part that you can choose to experience what curfew might feel like; you go into a darkened room. … One of the beautiful things that happened in curfew was, despite the banality and the sitting in the house and hearing shit happening

outside, is that people tell stories. So if you find yourself in this space with other audience members, there are prompts of how you might want to engage with each other. So that’s trying to unlock some of the beautiful things that happened, despite the oppression.

There’s one area in which you can read the script of Chronicles from Kashmir and drink some really nice chai.

There’s one station that is a game that … asks the spectators questions about linking Kashmir with the US and Santa Fe. … You can watch segments of Chronicles from Kashmir that we haven’t released online, partly because we’re scared to release them online. There are eight, 10 hours of footage. … And finally, before you leave, you’re given the choice of signing up to be a pen pal with someone in Kashmir. … I’ll hook you up with one of my friends in Kashmir, and you can take that relationship wherever you want it to go.

I want to make all of these spaces without beating people over the head with it, like, ‘Donate to this organization, donate to that organization.’ Because then my agenda comes into play. So I say, ‘Okay, I’ll pair you with someone who’s actually in the thick of that situation, and you talk with them and decide what that means for you.’ For me, ‘success’ might be you developing a lovely relationship with a theater artist that I’ve worked with in the past, and you going to visit them in Kashmir in two years. And then making up your own mind about what you can do.

On a different note, last year, Asylum, in which participants would assume the roles of asylum-seekers, didn’t end up going down in Santa Fe. What happened with that?

People showed up. There were seven to 10 folks who came, a couple from Albuquerque. Part of what was scary to them was the time commitment. It was a du-

So participants’ unwillingness to be hurt kind of derailed the whole project.

There’s this interesting thing—I don’t know if it’s a US thing, or what it is—but this notion of being triggered by a performance, and that being a bad thing.

At home, I don’t remember ever issuing a trigger warning for anything. Even at UWC, if people got triggered, they left.

If they had an issue, they’d bring it up to you, and you’d debate and talk about it and argue. But I think I’m learning too; here, people see the notion of being triggered as bad, and want to be prepared for it. One of the actors said, ‘It’s a little too triggering for me to do this.’ And I said, ‘Oh—and that’s not a good thing for you?

Ok, well, nothing we can do about that.’

rational performance; it was eight hours.

And part of it was they were afraid that they would be viewed by the public as problematically taking on someone else’s story. I tried to mitigate that—like, you know, ‘Look, there are techniques I have designed over the years, we’re going to break this down in rehearsal, we’re going to problematize the content, and we’re going to talk about how, in your characterization, you highlight those problems.’

But it was just this nervousness. I think in Santa Fe, a lot of people have faced critique for being appropriative when they have gone into something with good intentions, and that fear of critique is so strong. So I eventually ended up having to do it with my United World College students, because they were just like, ‘All right, we’ll try it, and if there’s a problem, we’ll figure out how to fix it.’

Which is more the attitude I needed. …

That’s why I like that age group; 16 to 18-ish. They’re not jaded enough by the world, and a critique to them is inspiring, because it makes them figure out what they believe and who they are—compared to us, who take critique so personally and it becomes damaging, in a way.

The installation space on San Francisco Street features a computer game, video area, letter-writing, chai tea and more.

When I first started this work, it was in Rwanda. During April, they have commemoration of the genocide, and one of the aspects [circa 2007] was they recreated what happened in the genocide. … And when they do that, there are people in the audience who have attacks of trauma, they start screaming and convulsing, and the Red Cross people have to take them out.

The first time I saw that, I was with my friend who is a survivor of the genocide, and I said, ‘That just seems unethical, no?

Why would you trigger people like that?’

And he said, ‘No, I think it’s cathartic.

I lived through that, and to be seeing that means it’s still being remembered, we’re still honoring that memory; and that release of emotion is troubling, but it’s good.’ And it’s funny, because in that context, I was the one saying, ‘Trigger!

Trigger! Trigger!’—and in this context, I’m like, ‘Why is everyone so triggered?’

So why a move to this kind of selfguided room, rather than ensemble performance?

I want to do more stuff that’s solo. One

of the big fears about censorship during Chronicles from Kashmir was that I was not alone; the risks were not to me alone. It was also to my ensemble, and some of them were 16 years old. I couldn’t take on those risks, because it wasn’t just me. In a way, the curation of these immersive spaces, if they work, is making the risk for me, and not for anyone else. That gives me a lot more liberty in what I can say and what I can play with.

Do you have fears about You & Distant Wars?

Right now, no. But as soon as the first South Asian-looking person walks in that room, I’m going to be scared. And that’s fascinating to observe in myself.

Even now, after so many years of going to Kashmir, there are people who think I’m a spy. And depending on which side you’re on, I’m spying for Pakistan or I’m spying for India or I’m spying for the US. So if, like, a bunch of South Asians show up, I’ll be nervous. But I won’t do anything about it.

What’s a parting thought you have for Santa Feans about You & Distant Wars?

You can spend as many hours in there as you want, which is why we’re keeping it open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays throughout May. If you come in one day and you’re like, ‘Today it’s too much,’ then leave—or if someone comes in and they’re like, ‘I want to do the curfew thing today,’ and just sit in there, they can.

I just hope folks show up. I want folks to be willing to take that leap. What I’ve heard from a lot of theater artists here is, ‘Oh, we just have to be careful with our audience. They’re used to a certain thing.’ Which I get; so you have to build it in stages. This might not be building. It might be like, ‘Go in there.’

RIDING LOW REDUX With the fourth annual Lowrider Day coming up, longtime photographer Don Usner discusses and shows his work from lowrider communities at a talk and opening. Having photographed the cars and the people who build and drive them for decades now, Usner has become immersed in the culture; the photographs on display show this engagement in a way few others have achieved. Usner also brings a special guest from Española to talk about his own experience building and painting the remarkable cars, and we hear this guest might just bring his ride, weather permitting. It’s an excellent chance to learn about lowriders the day before the New Mexico holiday—one which originated here in Santa Fe, we might add. (Per Olson)

COURTESY BLUE RAIN GALLERY

LECTURE TUE/14 GO WEST Painter Billy Schenck’s origin story may begin in the Midwest, but a lifelong love affair with the Southwest—not to mention a perhaps obsessive love for the art and iconography of the region—has played a much more pivotal role in his practice. Schenck’s work merges pop sensibilities with a romanticized ideation of the Old West, a sort of gathering place for the lonesome, crooning cowboy and the big, puffy clouds lit like fire on the horizon at sunset. Think Lichtenstein meets Western movie poster from Hollywood’s golden era and you get the basic idea, though there’s much more to it. Schenck could obviously tell you better—and he’ll do just that at an upcoming appearance for Blue Rain Gallery’s ongoing monthly lecture series. Yee-haw. (ADV) Billy Schenck: How I Became a Western Pop Artist and the Emergence of Contemporary Western Art as a Genre: 5 pm Tuesday May 14. Free. Blue Rain Gallery, 544 S Guadalupe St., 954-9902

EVENT SAT/11

Riding LOW Fourth annual Lowrider Day goes statewide In May of 2016, former Mayor Javier Gonzalez proclaimed the first-ever Lowrider Day in Santa Fe to honor the subculture’s inestimable impact on the region. At the time, both the New Mexico History Museum and the New Mexico Museum of Art featured a slew of lowrider-centric events and exhibits; the world’s first lowrider photo archive was also created.

And though Santa Fe has celebrated Lowrider Day each year with a car procession and show, this year the day’s designation officially goes statewide after a proclamation from Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham in April. For event organizer Grace Martinez of Southwest Promotionz, who grew up in the lowrider world, it’s a very big deal.

“My husband had his lowrider that he passed on to my sons, now they have lowriders; my brothers-in-law have lowriders, me and my husband share one,” Martinez says. “It’s the family and the artistic aspects, being with other lowriders, with friends and families, with people who share the love—it’s seeing everybody having a good time and showing off great works of art.”

Martinez says this year’s show and

parade have changed slightly to close out the event with the procession rather than begin it, and that over 100 cars from New Mexico, Texas, Colorado, Arizona and Nevada are slated to appear.

Martinez is also quick to call attention to the proposed Española Lowrider Museum (espanolalowridermuseum.com), an institution for which she hopes events like Lowrider Day can muster attention, and one that would be the first of its kind.

As for the big day this weekend, Martinez says she feels nothing but excitement.

“I love Lowrider Day because of the comments we get from the participants,” she explains. “Being in a car show is totally different, and … being on the Plaza brings a whole different kind of [visitor]; it’s not the regular car-show goers.

It’s people who’ve never seen a lowrider, and tourists intrigued by the artwork.”

Rumelia Collective continues to shine as a contemporary voice in Balkan folk traditions

BY LUKE HENLEY a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

I

t’s a boon to music writers to find musicians like the women in Rumelia Collective’s current iteration. Such musicians are also students, teachers and thinkers, and when a musical group tackles something as multi-layered and multi-cultural as the traditional music of the Balkans and the Middle East, it’s crucial that great thought and care go into the mix.

For years, Nicolle Jensen, Sitara Schauer, Alysha Shaw and Willa Roberts have explored such music as individuals and with each other, albeit in different configurations, and each continues to be a crucial voice in Santa Fe music, but also within a larger global community that continues to study, appreciate and perform regional traditional folk.

Rumelia Collective has a repertoire largely drawn from Bulgarian and Turkish traditions. Their catalog also

touches on the rest of the vast and varied geographic region consisting of the Balkans and the Middle East.

Granted, Jensen, Schauer, Shaw and Roberts agree there has been a bit of a learning curve involved in interpreting the music as performers, but also as listeners.

Some of the melodies, particularly noticeable in a number of the group’s a cappella pieces, feel dissonant at first and rhythmically challenging; Rumelia Collective often works in time signatures that even this writer’s fairly studied ear could not decipher at first. But to feel it on a level that stretches beyond the initial listening experience, to put in the effort, makes the music sound intuitive and natural.

“It’s very enticing,” Jensen tells SFR, “the way the rhythms are kind of asymmetrical.”

Yes, the group’s songs, when compared to Western forms of music and folk traditions, may feel off-kilter. But at this stage in their careers, the collective feels completely natural interpreting these forms, like they’re some kind of musical Rosetta Stone. They credit the progress in part to time spent at the College of Santa Fe and, more specifically, to then-faculty member Polly Tapia

Ferber, who taught Balkan and Middle Eastern music and dance as part of the now-defunct college’s contemporary music program. Jensen, Schauer, Shaw and Roberts have also taken workshops with masters of Balkan and Middle Eastern music to sharpen their skills, and their gestalt now rests in a prime space for creation and interpretation.

With the addition of four-part harmonies and more modern instrumentation such as violin and mandolin, Rumelia Collective also makes use of more traditional instruments, such as the Turkish saz or bağlama, a guitar-like number similar to the oud. By way of merging the old and the new, the band has developed a voice all its own that still maintains links to its source as well as the past and the present. Jensen expresses that those who have taught them—and other musicians who play Balkan music—appreciate what Rumelia Collective has created by implementing their own perspectives into the ultimately ancient music.

“They love that we’re taking chances and that we studied deeply,” she says, “but are also doing something new and different.”

On a local level, Roberts says she feels like a part of the greater Santa Fe Balkan music community, which includes Evet,

for which she also performs. She also credits the town’s curiosity for the band’s enduring popularity.

“Santa Fe seems to have an appetite for the culture of the world,” she says, pointing out that several local groups pay musical tribute to the same region as Rumelia Collective. “People that come to Santa Fe are not only drawn to the arts and music, but also to the world at large and to cultures that are different from their own.”

Future plans include more varied performances that focus on more plaintive vocal music, much of which is to be featured at their upcoming concert at GIG Performance Space. But they also say they’ll explore jubilant, dancebased styles with lively percussive elements among the complicated melodic oeuvre. And though no sessions have yet been booked, Rumelia Collective aims to record their current slate of songs in the near future. Stay tuned.

Gas Station History

guess I got into it because my dad was an artist,” artist Daniel McCoy (Muskogee Creek/Potawatomi) says of his own practice. “Well, a frustrated artist. And a biker.”

McCoy’s father, a non-Native, plied his skills as an automotive detailer; clean lines and pinstriping on motorcycle gas tanks and reinvigorated cars. McCoy says his dad’s work reminded him of the flatline Native art of his childhood home near Tulsa, Oklahoma.

“I had no idea it was not culturally related,” he continues with a laugh.

Still, it inspired him; as he bloomed artistically, he turned as well to some of the usual suspects that have inspired so many contemporary creators: comic books, cartoons and Jack Kirby. By the early ’90s, McCoy was working as a billboard painter in Oklahoma, but it was also around the time he was accepted to the Institute of American Indian Arts and moved to Santa Fe. Between classes, he was still a sign-maker, which led to crafting signs for Canyon Road galleries and, eventually, the museum system where he’d also work as an art handler.

“I’d do my own art on the side; assistant work, and shows, too,” he recalls, “and it all started with Hot Wheels and Star Wars figures.”

For his next foray, McCoy joins forces with Midtown DIY space Etiquette for Allsup’s at the Hinterlands, a sort of culmination of a slow and steady recent consumption and exploration of local landscapes and culture. Curator and Etiquette co-founder Drew Lenihan calls it a “mid-career retrospective,” a type of exhibit we don’t often see in more mainstream institutions. For the show, McCoy and Lenihan spent months conversing on ideas of geography, history, colonization and artistry; Hinterlands is the result of that unusually collaborative effort.

From his studio space at the Poeh Cultural Center in Pojoaque, which he shares with his former IAIA instructor Mateo Romero, McCoy employs a hybrid

Today, McCoy has spent more years of his life in New Mexico than OklaBY ALEX DE VORE | a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m homa—but in those first Santa Fe years, Allsup’s became a new focus for him, from the people he’d meet there to the simple pleasures of buying his own Coca-Cola.

Such landscapes, he says, were far from his goal not so long ago.

“In school, I’d avoid the instructors I knew were heavy on the landscape side of things. But now, I see Mateo on a regular basis, we talk art. And when we started talking about classic painting, he said, ‘You should get more into classic painting, do things like nudes and landscapes,’” McCoy explains. “Well, I stopped doing landscapes 20 years ago, but I was hiking on the Pueblo and was kind of astounded by the sights. [Mateo] fired me up 20 years ago, he fired me up now.”

As for working with Etiquette, that, too, clicked for McCoy. In his younger days, he attended raves in the same warehouse “A Path to Clarity” space, and a former band of his called Tiny by painter Daniel Sandwiches also practiced there.

Annie Liu, a 2017 graduate of the Santa Fe University of Art and Design, was recently appointed the lighting and AV supervisor at the Santa Fe Playhouse. She designed lights for the current production of Marjorie Prime (see Acting Out, page 26), and as one of the many talented SFUAD holdovers who’s currently helping keep the local theater scene together, we touched base about what it’s like being a theater tech for a living. (Charlotte Jusinski)

Check out the complete schedule : https://sfct.org/vamonos/ Give us a call at 505.989.7019 with any questions

It’s a little easy to understand why some people get into acting and performing, but many folks have a harder time getting why someone would choose tech. What made you want to be in the booth?

It started in high school. I was quitting sports because all the coaches were very mean and I hated running. (Laughs) I had a few friends that were in theater, on the acting side of things, and … they were like, ‘You can join tech. That’s pretty fun.’ So I did tech as an elective in high school, and did that for three years, then went to college for it.

And now I’m here.

Well, clearly you had to like it; you didn’t just go to college for it out of inertia. What made you keep with it?

It was just really, really fun. I really liked being part of a community like that. You know how theater families are like—well, families. I enjoyed how a show wasn’t a show until [tech] got involved.

I loved seeing the entire thing come together, and seeing the finished product. I thought it was a really cool and fun process.

And then I got involved in the lighting side toward the end of high school; [at first,] I did a lot of costume and scenic work. There were these three guys that did lighting and sound, and it was ‘the boy thing,’ and I was ‘the girl’ in the costume shop. But then towards the end of senior year, I was sneaking in with them and making them teach me. And when I came to college, I got to decide what it is that I wanted to do.

What would you say is the most challenging aspect of your position at the Santa Fe Playhouse?

I would say it’s doing everything. (Laughs) Because typically, you’ll have a crew, a master electrician, someone hanging lights for you, at least, so you can just be the designer. But I’m all of it. So that’s kind of hard, but maybe it makes it easier because I don’t have to tell people what I want. … But it’s been great. It’s been a bit of a learning curve for both me and [production and tech manager] David [Carter]. It’s just a weird space. It’s also a very packed season, so it’s been a little hard, but every show we just keep getting better and better, and figuring it out more and more.

Let us re-introduce ourselves.

later. The show was technically slick and aesthetically pleasing, the acting perfectly passable—but the themes are what still give me pause. At the penultimate scene, as the rest of the audience sniffled around me (reportedly the entire cast cried at the very first table read), I sat like a robot, just thinking about the internet.

Some of the acting felt forced and glancing, which left me a bit cold in my

seat, despite playwright Jordan Harrison’s script that sometimes edged toward the cloying or emotionally manipulative (though I’m apparently in the minority with that opinion; it was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in Drama in 2015). The blocking was simple, if even unimaginative; but this show is all about conversation, so bells and whistles could have gotten muddy.

Wickwire’s Marjorie is quite sweet.

Even when delivering zingy one-liners or subtly racist quips, she’s a lovable woman. That’s a problem here, though, because Karen Ryan’s Tess has the sharp, impatient coldness you’d expect from an actress who delivered a chilling Fräulein Kost in the playhouse’s Cabaret in 2017 or the troubled Judy in last summer’s The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. We could stand to like Marjorie less, if only to further Tess’ motivation; but as it is, we are left without a clear picture of the difficult version of Marjorie that raised her. It does, however, create more empathy for Jeff Nell’s John, who treats Marjorie more kindly and gets frustrated with his wife’s snark.

The technical aspects of this show were most impressive. While the landscape does feel futuristic, it’s not one of those comically overdone speculations care of 1950s sci-fi. Costume designer Ali Olhausen chose stuff folks would

arjorie is dying. Not only is she dying, but her mind is demented. She is under the care of her daughter Tess and son-in-law John, but her fraught relationship with Tess and spotty memory make every day a trial.

The year is 2062. Apparently, we haven’t yet found a talk-therapy fix for these very basic human issues.

The fix we have found for a different kid of problem, however, is a prime, an animatronic humanoid robot that replaces a deceased loved one; Marjorie (Carolyn Wickwire), in her ailing state, has Walter Prime, a younger version of her husband (played by David Bellowe) to keep her company.

This is a show about world-building.

Specifically, world-building by way of memory, by way of humanity; creating a human from nothing but words. In the same way that the more we speak to our smartphone, the better it transcribes our speech, the more that the characters tell the primes, the more that prime becomes like the person it is replacing.

So like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind in converse—imprinting memories on a blank slate rather than deleting them in order to become one—the characters re-sculpt their loved ones. And all I could do in the audience was think of the thousands of ways this expanded like a fractal into my own memories, my own relationship with technology, my own relationships with the people I love and what I’d do if I felt them slipping away.

My own earliest internet memories or my thoughts about Amazon’s Alexa were what stuck with me once I left the theater; autobiographical brain machinations are what still churn a few days

wear today, but with a slightly more militarized and clean-lined (and quite fabulous) outfit for Tess. Marjorie is bedecked in softer fabrics and colors, purples in silk and satin. The highly geometric set

by David Carter looks like the home of a particularly rich tech mogul in the Bay Area or something, presumably what all homes will look like by 2062. Lined by LED ropes that pulsed on and off, and occasionally “breathed” like the power light on a sleeping MacBook, the inanimate aspects of the set felt fittingly alive.

(I was inevitably reminded of that short story about a sentient yet post-apocalyptic home, There Will Come Soft Rains by Ray Bradbury, which has creeped me out since about 1996.)

Especially after chatting with lighting designer Annie Liu, the thought and care that went into the technical aspects of the show became even more remarkable (read more in 3 Questions, page 25).

Of course, when a show’s tech is nearly invisible, that is when it is best— so particularly notable here is a glowing panel on the back wall of the set that controls the house and the primes therein. Designed to look like an iPadlike device set in the wall (and that’s what I thought it was), it’s actually a tablet that is controlled not by the actors’ touch, but by hundreds of cues from the booth. It was flawless. Designed by Vaughn Irving and manipulated by the tech crew, it seemed like an innocuous part of the set until I realized just how much work went into it—and then it practically took center stage in my memory. I wish only that it was larger, to see the effort put into it.

I also need to give a nod to the run crew, who changed the set between scenes. Stephanie Baacke and Lada Ballowe were swift and, to repeat a word, flawless. Huzzah to these unsung heroes of the stage.

Marjorie Prime was kind of a weird show. Not because it was presented in any particularly unique way, but rather because it was bland, in many ways—yet it still made me think. All the connections formed by this show in my brain could never be recreated. How could someone make a prime of me? It would be impossible. No one can recreate another human. It will never be enough.

And maybe that’s okay.

ZIBBY WILDER

S FR E P O RTE R .CO M / FO O D

Far Out Prepare to pull over!

BY ZIBBY WILDER a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

O

n a recent weekend, I wove my way up Highway 4 to the Valles Caldera. I had heard there was excellent hiking there, in addition to hot springs, stunning vistas, and … pizza!

How I came about this info is as roundabout as the road to the caldera. A few years back I owned an “Airstream hotel,” a half-dozen shiny trailers available for nightly rental.

Instagram loves a picture of these gleaming classics, so I posted a lot of them. I also looked at a lot of them, and one of my favorite accounts was that of the Nomad Mountain Motor Lodge. These posts detailed the work of an East Coast architect who adored, and excelled at, the restoration of vintage trailers.

Then, posts about pizza—in New Mexico—started appearing.

So I pulled off Highway 4 at Highway 126, about 9 miles north of Jemez Springs, to find Nomad Mountain Pizza (38710 Hwy. 126, Jemez Springs, 575-829-3197), run by no other than the owner of the aforementioned Instagram, a man named Michael Vallen.

Vallen moved to the area from Washington, DC, after falling in love with the beauty of the Valles Caldera. As it turns out, “the Southwest, with its dry air and moderate temperatures, is ground zero,” Vallen says, for those with a fever for relatively undamaged

vintage trailers. Vallen immediately set up his custom renovation shop near Jemez Springs.

Nomad Mountain Pizza, by comparison, was just “more of a fluke,” Vallen explains. He originally planned to open the business with a partner, but the deal fell apart and Vallen found himself with a space, but no restaurant experience. Not being easily dissuaded from a challenge, he forged ahead and finished the space himself, opening just over one year ago.

Everything at Nomad Mountain Pizza is, and looks, handmade.

The rustic space overflows with finds from another era, from the pastel serving dishes to countertop bric-a-brac, and even the cabinetry from a vintage trailer, its innards having been removed to shoot a scene for an upcoming Netflix show starring Uma Thurman.

As for the food: The family-style Flying Cloud (an Airstream reference) Caesar salad (side, meal or table, $4, $8 or $14) features homemade dressing, creamy and tart, and croutons to die for: crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. Topped with thick shavings of parmesan, it’s an ideal light starter.

Pizzas are obviously the stars of the menu here. Vallen worked hard to perfect a handmade dough that would work with the altitude and, atop this delicious crust, the 12-inch pies feature a generous layer of hearty homemade sauce and fresh toppings, sourced from as close to home as possible. If you’d like a lane change to sandwiches, Nomad Mountain

Marta Uribe is Mamacita, the best dang pizza maker in all of Abiquiú.

FOOD

also offers a variety of these, from house-smoked turkey to hand-crafted meatballs ($9.50). Chicken soup ($6), mac ’n’ cheese ($4), and even homemade bourbon pecan pie ($5) are available as sides, just like grandma made.

Having a delicious pizza place in the middle of almost-nowhere brought to mind the sign many of us have passed dozens of times, on the corner of Highway 84 (heading into Abiquiú) and Highway 554: Mamacita’s Pizzeria (20814 Hwy. 84, Abiquiú, 505-685-4111).

A couple of friends and I were heading to Ghost Ranch for a horseback ride and decided Mamacita’s might be a good place for a bite before we got to bumping along. I arrived early and sat in Mamacita’s parking lot, along with a few other folks. I assumed the restaurant was not yet open until cries of joy erupted from the car next to me as Mamacita herself hand-delivered their pizza.

Turns out, there’s just nowhere to sit inside—only a couple of picnic tables outside, so unless the weather is warm, most locals order to go.

Mamacita is Marta Uribe, a former banker who left New York City after 9/11 to settle down on the distant planet that is Abiquiú.

“My family has 400 years of history here in Northern New Mexico,” Uribe tells SFR. She decided to open a business and, upon exhaustive examination, decided it was pizza that was needed. That was over 14 years ago, and this place is no joke. It’s the best New York-style pizza I’ve had outside of New York—even better than a lot of places in New York, for that matter. Uribe pushes out exceptional pies (starting at $5.50 for an 8-inch to $17 for an 18-inch cheese) from this small space, where the decor includes a pizza box upon which is scrawled a note reading, “Oh My God!!! This was the BEST pizza we have ever had!”

Uribe hand-stretches dough shipped from a New York bakery and doesn’t miss a chance to point out the ingredients are all fresh, not bagged or canned.

“This is 100% whole milk mozzarella, not junk!” she exclaims, pointing to the cheese in hand.

Mamacita’s also offers juicy, homestyle ⅓-pound black Angus burgers and super-tasty sandwiches including chicken parmesan and a veggie supreme (both $7), “served the way you like it, with cheese and six fresh veggies of your choice,” says the menu.

Oh yeah, I like it.

Time to plan some road trips!

Daphne

DAPHNE IS A 40 POUND MIXED BREED DOG that recently arrived at the shelter as a stray. Our vets have aged her at about a year-and-a-half old so she should be done growing. We are still getting to know Daphne but so far she has been good with staff and participates in our regular dog play groups: and although she mostly hangs out in them, she hasn’t been a big player yet. Daphne’s adoption fee is $130 and she is already spayed, has age appropriate vaccines and a microchip.

Shadow Review Round by round

9 8

BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

7

Hero and House of Flying Daggers filmmaker Yimou Zhang returns to the big screen with Shadow, a film that gets so much right even as it insists on lagging from time to time. This is, in a nutshell, the Zhang conundrum: Do beautifully made kung fu movies that take full advantage of jaw-dropping cinematography and deathdefying stunts get a pass on everything else?

In the “pro” column, Shadow paints a pretty picture of fairy-tale intrigue. A war has raged between territories since time immemorial, and the commander of one such territory’s army (Chao Deng) hatches a plan along with his clever wife (Li Sun) and a dedicated doppelgänger (also Deng). By out-thinking his opponents, allies and king (Ryan Zhen) at every step, his master plan begins to unfold. Too bad everyone around there is a kung fu genius. Conflict, naturally, arises, and that simple plan of getting a dude who looks just like him to do all kinds of crazy things starts to seem convoluted.

6 5 4 3 2 1 WORST MOVIE EVER

7 + UNBELIEVABLY

BEAUTIFUL; THOSE STUNTS - NEEDLESS CONVERSATIONS; SOME SILLY PERFORMANCES

Of course, we’re not really here for a flawless plot or fantastic examples of thespian skill—we’re here for the kung fu. And it is epic (which we say honestly hating what the internet has done to that word). Here, fans of the genre will find every bit as much to like as in Zhang’s other works, but with better tech steering the car and allowing for more complex results. In these fight scenes— replete with bizarre weaponry and stunning, rainswept backgrounds—Shadow succeeds time and time again, but it’s often back to the politics of the court, some painfully misdirected stabs at comic levity and long expositional conversations that feel stilted at best.

In Zhang’s overall body of work, Shadow holds its own, but it’s certainly not going to wind up a cultural phenomenon as his other works have. Ang Lee’s brilliant Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon sort of stacked the kung fu deck forever, anyway, and though Shadow can be good fun, it can also take too long getting there.

THE CHAPERONE

Louise Brooks makes it back to the big screen via Haley Lu Richardson in The Chaperone.

+ LEADING LADIES; VIBRANT - LAZY POST-PRODUCTION; TV MOVIE ATTITUDE

Television director Michael Engler helms The Chaperone, a coming-of-age story about two very different women traveling together to New York City from Kansas. Mostly set in 1922, Prohibition, suppressive gender dynamics and xenophobia all rear their ugly heads, revealing an older-looking but relevant America; If you thought our past were full of smiles and ragtime, this shows otherwise.

Haley Lu Richardson (Split) plays a teenage version of screen star Louise Brooks, New York-bound for dancing reasons. Richardson’s youthful exuberance and natural talent makes her fascinating to watch and she steals entire scenes. Elizabeth McGovern (Downton Abbey) as Norma Carlisle, meanwhile, is Louise’s chaperone, and a counter to her personality. McGovern finds her character’s greatest power either via cooly expressing her values to the ignorant, or in discovering her New York past. The supporting cast are pleasant enough with eyes on Lord of the Rings star Miranda Otto as Louise’s dance instructor, CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

and Singles lead Campbell Scott as Norma’s secretive husband in particular. Unfortunately, accomplished thespian Blythe Danner couldn’t be bothered to do anything other than arrive and collect her check.

Julian Fellowes, also of Downton Abbey, pens a screenplay average in narrative structure, but clever in the quiet conversations, and the film’s biggest blunders are in allowing well-written dialogue to be ruined by a lack of direction. One wishes Engler were more active in helping his actors make choices in both body language and pitch.

Despite that, the production design is quite convincing. Nothing looks fake, but rather aged, as if preserved in time for this exact production.

Camera work and lighting are fluid as well; bright, yet accommodating to the environment.

Other elements are wonkier, such as choppy editing that robs lead actors of emotional moments landing with gravitas or poor vocal dubbing that makes one wonder when the Shaolin monks might fly into the air, swords in hand.

As one can guess, The Chaperone would have made a far better special on PBS than a theatrical release. Its relatively small viewership could have found a charming enough program for a Sunday evening view, favorite vice in hand. (Matthew K Gutierrez)

+ BREAKNECK FUN AND INCREDIBLE SPECIAL EFFECTS; SO SATISFYING

- MANIPULATIVE WITH THE FEELS

It’s been a little over 10 years since the first Iron Man film taught us that comic book flicks could be well-made, quite fun and well worth it, and the saga it spawned—which of course rolls up about a zillion other titles from Guardians of the Galaxy and Captain Marvel to Dr. Strange and Spider-Man: Homecoming—comes to a close in the latest and final (we think) Avengers movie, Endgame.

We rejoin Iron Man, Thor, War Machine, Black Widow, Rocket Raccoon, Ant Man and a whole cadre of other heroes in the aftermath of super villain Thanos’ finger-snapping annihilation of 50% of the universe’s living creatures. This meant a whole mess of our favorites—like Spider-Man, dammit— had faded to death and to dust. Cue tears.

But despite the despotic madman from across the stars’ best hopes for some sort of universal balance restoration, pretty much no one in the galaxy is grateful. Hence, the surviving Earthlings and non-Earthlings alike keep the teamwork going and hatch a plan to try and bring everyone back. Cue more tears.

Well, Rocket Raccoon checked into his room, only to find War Machine’s shoulder. Avengers: Endgame is out now, and we’re, like, so totally sorry if it’s not Citizen Kane or whatever movies you think are so freaking great. long runtime (just pee before), but the magic in directors Joe and Anthony Russo’s latest entry is in how it never ever stops rocking even for an instant.

If anything, it feels a little shorter than it could have been. Perhaps it’s in how everything from every extended franchise has been leading to this showdown since day one, or maybe it’s in the clever ways the Russo brothers manage to present a greatest hits feel without exhausting the audience.

Even the slower moments feel necessary, even the clearly emotionally manipulative swelling of the music as fight scenes go down or friends come together feel warranted.

For this and so many other reasons, Endgame is wildly satisfying, even when it doesn’t pan out in the ways we might like. Cue even more tears—which is odd, really, because these are comic book characters with fantastic powers who are wrapped up in utterly absurd scenarios time and time again. But they’ve been with us most of our lives, in comic form and on television, in movie theaters and video games. Scoff if you will, non-fans, but for those who surrender to the siren call of Marvel Comics and Studios, it feels like we’re rooting for our friends through every painful twist and heart-soaring victory.

Toss in that tech that makes old folks look young and young folks look old, some honest-toGod tearjerker moments and the return of Brie Larson’s ultra-fun Carol Danvers, and we’ve really got something going. Think of it like a love letter to the fans—a bombastic, over-the-top love letter rife

with the smoothest CGI, a darker tone and a couple cameos from the Community cast (from whence the Russo brothers came) all working together in glorious synergy for what is easily one of the best action movies of our time. Go for the face-punching, stay for the hugs; engage in the culture every once in awhile. (ADV)

THE CURSE OF LA LLORONA

+ FOLKLORE IS OBJECTIVELY COOL - WHY DO THEY KEEP LEAVING THE KIDS IN OTHER ROOMS?

For those who come from places familiar with the folklore, The Curse of La Llorona, the newest entry from the Annabelle microcosm of films—such as The Nun and The Conjuring—have probably felt irritated by the thought of a Hollywood take on the age-old tale. And these people are right, because it’s a pretty terrible movie if we’re being generous, and a lousy example of appropriation if we’re being honest.

Freaks & Geeks alum Linda Cardellini is Anna, a social worker-slash-mom whose cop husband, a Hispanic man we’re told, died before the events of the film. Life is hard, raising kids alone is tough; Anna gets the briefest expositional moments before it’s off to take kids away from a poor Mexican mother because she locked them in a closet “to keep them safe.” Really, we know she’s hiding

them from being Llorona’d. But when those kids wind up in the social care system and subsequently disappear, Anna’s own brood wind up stalked by the ghostly remains of a once-beautiful woman who, years ago, in a fit of jealous rage, drowned her children and now ghosts around drowning other kids so they can somehow take their place.

She’s La Llorona, dammit.

Anna sets about confronting the spirit with the help of a defrocked priest-slash-curandero (Raymond Cruz of Breaking Bad), but La Llorona is more powerful than they can imagine, so jump scares occur, close calls go down and the music swells suddenly while the ghost tries to drown everybody. It’s horror, y’know? You basically know the gist. In the beginning, glimpses of the ghost are pretty scary, but once we’ve seen her a few times and the law of diminishing returns kicks in, it really becomes a game of running down the clock.

And this would all be acceptable in that horror movies are often not so great, but La Llorona centers the story on white folks (not counting the kids, because don’t forget that the dead dad was Hispanic—but even they take a backseat to the mom’s actions despite being the targets of attempted ghost murder). There are certainly other Hispanic cast members, but they’re relegated to plot devices with shitty motives and deus ex machina which, frankly, is tiresome and problematic. Cardellini does have her moments, particularly in how she might be the first actor ever to deliver a

THE DIRT

2

+ VINCE NEIL STUFF IS OK - WE HATE THESE PEOPLE; THE MUSIC IS WORSE THAN WE REMEMBERED

It’s been 18 years since the members of hair metal band Mötley Crüe released their tellall book The Dirt, and streaming giant Netflix has given it the feature treatment in a new film with the same old title. A tour through the band’s founding, its absolutely insane years of drug and alcohol use, that rise to super-stardom and, eventually, its members’ sobering-up and growing into living mummies with the collective skin of an old baseball glove, it’s no small wonder The Dirt won’t ever make it to the big screen. It’s terrible.

From the confusing choice to give each of the principal band members (or the actors who play them, anyway) their own sections of narration despite irksomely similar voices, to the problematic way the film version of The Dirt lionizes Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee, Mick Mars and Vince Neil’s utter disrespect for women and each other, what we get is a disjointed biopic-lite that would’ve felt right at home on the Lifetime network were it not for its crassness. The scene wherein Ozzy drinks his own urine is enough to make us wince, and it doesn’t get much better anyplace else in the movie.

Maybe it would get better toward the end, when all their nonsense catches up with them?

Naw, that’s done awfully, too.

Particularly challenging is the daytime TV-caliber acting, especially from the likes of the usually talented Iwan Rheon (of Hulu’s wildly underrated The Misfits and a little show called Game of Thrones) as guitarist Mick Mars. He seems more bored than we do by the cocaine-fueled juvenile antics of the rest of the band, though it feels like we’re supposed to find such things heroic or funny; maybe it’s just meant to illustrate that Mars was older than the rest and suffering from a debilitating bone disorder? Whatever. He still sucks.

Similar marks go to Douglas Booth as Nikki Sixx and some dude named Machine Gun Kelly as Tommy Lee, two actors who sound

like they’re reciting from memory rather than, y’know, acting. Daniel Webber as Vince Neil, however, does show promise—or maybe he was just the only one with actual plot points/ real-life events outside of doing too much coke and punching women in the face. SNL cast member Pete Davidson’s in this thing, too, and he’s just so bad it’s hardly worth mentioning.

And so, if the goal was to wow us, to shock us or to otherwise show us how far Mötley Crüe’s members came despite the perilous road to fame and wealth, The Dirt fails, leaving instead a bad taste in our mouths and the disappointment from knowing that the song “On With the Show” is forever ruined because we know just how far into asshole-dom these dudes sank. The Dirt may have been fasttracked in the wake of Bohemian Rhapsody‘s success, but it still feels like this one’s for super-fans only—and it might ruin the band for them, too. (ADV)

ACUPUNCTURE Rob Brezsny

Week of May 8th

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Time to shake things up!

In the next three weeks, I invite you to try at least three of the following experiments. 1. See unusual sights in familiar situations. 2. Seek out new music that both calms you and excites you. 3. Get an inspiring statue or image of a favorite deity or hero.

4. Ask for a message from the person you will be three years from now. 5. Use your hands and tongue in ways you don’t usually use them. 6. Go in quest of a cathartic release that purges frustration and rouses holy passion. 7. Locate the sweet spot where deep feeling and deep thinking overlap.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Desire is a profoundly upsetting force,” writes author Elspeth Probyn. “It may totally rearrange what we think we want. Desire skews plans and sets forth unthought-of possibilities.” In my opinion, Probyn’s statements are halftrue. The other half of the truth is that desire can also be a profoundly healing and rejuvenating force, and for the same reasons: it rearranges what we think we want, alters plans, and unleashes unthought-of possiTAURUS (April 20-May 20): According to science writ- bilities.

With that in mind, I propose that you regard the firefly as your spirit creature in the coming weeks.

Ellen added even if it illuminates shadows people are trying to hide. the following thoughts: so much of what we learn about love is taught by people who were too narcisGEMINI (May 21-June 20): Here’s a message from sistic or wounded to be able to love very well; and by author Susan J. Elliott: “This is not your week to run the Universe. Next week is not looking so good either.” Now people who didn’t have many listening skills and therefore didn’t know enough about us to love us for here’s a message from me: Elliott’s revelation is very who we really are; and by people who love themgood news! Since you won’t have to worry about trying to manage and fine-tune the Universe, you can focus all selves poorly and so of course find it hard to love anyone else. Is any of this applicable to what you your efforts on your own self-care. And the coming weeks will be a favorable time to do just that. You’re due have experienced, Sagittarius?
