My Life. My Card.

Imagine me in a black and white photo in which I am either looking out the San Francisco sky line or slouched over in an oversized sweater brushing my teeth… Meanwhile, this picture of me standing in the Stonestown Cinema mirror will have to do.



My Name: Matt

Childhood Ambition: To find a way to live in Jeanie’s way cool bottle!

Fondest Memory: As a child, lying with my head in my Grandmother’s lap as we listened to records on her “Victrola” as she liked to call her stereo.

Soundtrack: Simply Barbra!

Retreat: In the sacred darkness of the cinema with my popcorn and Diet Coke

Wildest Dream; To fall into love and know that the person is just as in love with me as I am in him.

Proudest Moment: The day I got out of Texas for good!

Biggest Challenge; Hmmmm… Either over coming the trauma of much of my childhood or sitting through that movie Mel Gibson made about Jesus getting tortured for 3 hours.

Alarm Clock; Space age looking Dream Machine by Sony.

Perfect Day: Being lazy on a Sunday in bed with my lover kissing for hours while Nina Simone or Billie Holiday CD’s play. Quiet sighs and moans… Perfect,

First Job: Working at a donut shop which turned out to be a cover for major drug dealing operation. I felt so cool.

Indulgence: Movies, music, ---- in the form of going to the cinema and owning far too many CD’s/DVD’s. That, or chocolate.

Last Purchase: DVD of a great documentary called PUT THE CAMERA ON ME.

Favorite Movie: Toss up between Altman’s NASHVILLE, 3 WOMEN and Allen’s MANHATTAN. All 3 are perfect in my book.

Inspiration; love, love, love and even more love

My Life: …is an open book waiting for more chapters of adventure.

My Card: Well, it was AmEx but they made me cut it in half. Oh well.
