November 29, 2010 - From Alonso Duralde himself: I'm very excited about my new book HAVE YOURSELF A MOVIE LITTLE CHRISTMAS (Limelight Editions), not to mention my 2005 Insight Out Book Club best-seller 101 MUST-SEE MOVIES FOR GAY MEN (Advocate Books). You can currently catch me on IFC's THE GRID; until the recent cancellation of THE ROTTEN TOMATOES SHOW on Current, I was one of that show's recurring film critics, and I was presented the "Lifetime (of the Show) Achievement Award" in 2009. I'm a member of the Los Angeles Film Critics Association and write about film and entertainment for various outlets, including Movieline.com, MSNBC.com, HitFix.com, and MovieFone.com. I also work with several film festivals, including the USA Film Festival/Dallas (where he served as Artistic Director for five years), Outfest, and Sundance, and I also served on the nominating committees for the 2008 (Narrative) and 2010 (Documentary) Independent Spirit Awards. All of which is to say that I've watched my share of screener DVDs. Look for me in a city near you in December of 2010 with the new book; otherwise, I very happily live in West Hollywood in an awesome rent-controlled apartment with my husband Dave White, a very funny film critic whose memoir EXILE IN GUYVILLE you really oughta read. Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas is the first film guide written specifically for holiday film viewing, including traditional classics alongside more unusual choices of films that are set at Yuletide without being thought of as â??Christmas movies.â?? The guide will spotlight Christmas-themed adult comedies, dramas, action thrillers, foreign films, and horror filmsâ??even a documentaryâ??as well as movies for the whole family.
