Factotum

We went to see Factotum last night. It was amusing -- always do love Lili Taylor. But the best part was seeing what parts of the Twin Cities they would use as "LA." I spotted downtown St. Paul, the west bank, the warehouse district, and, funnily enough, the day labor center a block from my house. They also caught on film one of the last classic abandoned buildings in downtown, which I photographed last year experimenting with a Lomo. I love the richness of color the Lomo provides. Right after I took this photo, I was approached by a Hank Chinaski-esque guy. He let me take his photo, but asked that I not use it anywhere. It's a shame, because I actually liked it quite a bit -- but photographing people still makes me uneasy.
