...make believable. Emmet is, in addition to being a performance artist, a kleptomaniac, pimp and all-around heel, who somehow comes off as a nice guy despite himself. The running joke of the movie is that Emmet Ray is the second greatest jazz guitarist of his time, and the two times that Emmet has encountered number one, the real-life figure Django Reinhardt (this Gypsy guitar player from France), he fainted on sight.

Bromfield is not to be sniffed at, however; Dale Kaplan's recent exhibition of paintings on Mexican chewing-gum boxes was very enjoyable...
...Fort Point Art Community Gallery, like the Revolving Museum and Mobius nearby, is a combination studio and exhibition space, with six-week-long shows of two or more artists. For the opportunity to peek at artists' works-in-progress, be sure to catch the weekend of open studios FPAC holds every year in mid-October...
