...Almost immediately when the CDs start rolling, people start to cry. I think there are a bunch of reasons for that. One is that we live in a culture where we spend so much time kind of disconnected, quick messaging, or watching TV and all the screens in our house, the Blackberries, the computer screen, and it's kind of rare...for all of us to look someone in the eye and tell them you love them by listening to them. Just the act of someone saying, I want to hear about your life, moves people to tears almost...
...gods must be an ironic bunch. When I visited Mumbai, India, this June, the air was thick with humidity and heavy monsoon rains flooded the crowded streets. Yet even in my grandparents’ flat in the upscale suburb of Bandra—home to Bollywood’s glamorous film stars—low water pressure in the public pipeline meant that the plumbing system worked only two or three hours a day, often in the middle of the night.

...talking goosebumps like nothing else. First, we just get text about “sightings” that were “retrieved” from an area “formerly known as Central Park.” The rest of it is just a bunch of shaky, disjointed clips from digital, hand-held cameras. At the very beginning, they seem to be from some hipster douchebag’s birthday party, but pretty quickly, some serious stuff goes down. And I mean that literally—about 20 seconds into the trailer, something explodes across town...
