Did you ever envision the perfect Southern road trip, but weren't sure how to string together the mythic and the real? Then get your hands on a copy of the new hit book by Scott Pfeiffer and Karolyn Steele-Pfeiffer, The Grit, the Grumble, and the Grandeur: Chicago to New Orleans: A Guide to Travel, Food, and Culture. It'll give you the details you need to burn down Highway 61 from Chicago to New Orleans along the Mississippi. Start planning your journey through the Southern past today.

"Again the Beginner," the new album from Al Rose (with notes/comments by yours truly). Available at Bandcamp, Apple Music and Amazon.

56th Chicago International Film Festival (on Cine-File): MEMORY HOUSE, PREPARATIONS TO BE TOGETHER FOR AN UNKNOWN PERIOD OF TIME, THERE IS NO EVIL, and NOTTURNO

The Chicago International Film Festival is back for its 56th iteration, holding up better than respectably under COVID-19 conditions. Over at Cine-File we've got good coverage under the CIFF headline. I contibuted writeups on João Paulo Miranda Maria's MEMORY HOUSE (Brazil), Lili Horvát's PREPARATIONS TO BE TOGETHER FOR AN UNKNOWN PERIOD OF TIME (Hungary), Mohammad Rasoulof’s THERE IS NO EVIL (Iran/Germany/Czech Republic), and Gianfranco Rosi’s NOTTURNO (Italy/France/Germany).
