The Sheriff

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I work as Managing Director of Cinema Arts Entertainment and Artedis S.A. (Paris). I am a filmmaker. I am a certified Violence Prevention Specialist and volunteer for Peace Over Violence. I try to embrace whatever wishes to come forward. I suffer from migraines. I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, de-briefed, or numbered. I have no ideology. I have no theology. I just dance. One of these days, I'm going to give it all up and travel the country in a Winnebago with Lily, solving religious crimes. Our time is on loan, only ours to borrow. What I can't be today, I can be tomorrow.

My Interests

Embracing my madness, living without rules, being of service, telling stories, traveling the globe, exploring my own inner space, and contemplating the space between. I live and die by the fortunes of the UCLA men's basketball team. I like food. I like smelling it, touching it, tasting it. I like you. You truly fascinate me. Look into my eyes. You bewitch me, devil woman.

I'd like to meet:

Explorers. People searching for bigger playgrounds. Attractive people. Funny people. And YOU!

The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world the Sheriff didn't exist.

Get your own quotes:

Music:

I don't understand music, but I do like the noise it makes, especially if the artist is Paul Weller, or Marvin Gaye, or the Jam, or Aya Peard, or The Style Council, or Lily Allen, or Oasis, or Amy Winehouse, or Billy Bragg, or Edwyn Collins, or Curtis Mayfield, or Blur, or KC and the Sunshine Band, or Jamiroquai, or The Small Faces, or Sondre Lerche, or pretty much anyone my friend, nanouk, puts on her profile page, and absolutely anything that makes Steven Colbert dance.

Movies:

My all-time Top Five favorite feature films: Citizen Kane, Casablanca, The Third Man, Fellini's 8 1/2, 2001: A Space Odyssey.The five feature films I have made: Karl Rove, I Love You (2007), Spectres (2004), Story of O: Untold Pleasures (2002), The Party Crashers (1998), 'Til Death Do Us Part (1994).The trailer for Karl Rove, I Love You:The trailer for Spectres:

Television:

I am very much the product of countless hours spent watching Patrick McGoohan, Pierce Brosnan and William Shatner.

Books:

My most cherished book is Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises (and if whoever borrowed it would please return it, I'd be ever so grateful). Recently, I loved reading The Life of Pi, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, The Corrections, everything by David Sedaris, The Way of the Explorer and The Biology of Transcendence. I'm usually reading four different books at any given time.

Heroes:

Robert Altman, Federico Fellini, Edward R. Murrow, Theodore Roosevelt, Al Gore pre-1986 and Al Gore post-2000, and I want Amy Sedaris to make me this cake: .
