Just because we are all caught in the world wide web, doesn’t mean we’re all connected. For actress-filmmaker Miranda July, THE FUTURE (thefuturethefuture.com/) is now, both in regards to the release of her stunning second feature — a deftly ironic mesh of magical realism and near-Mumblecore malaise — and in regards to our ability to all just get along. Is there something inherently asocial about technology or is the bug in the system simply our own fears of intimacy? With greater access to the global village will we become more considerate of the communities around us or squirrel ourselves more securely into our social media caves? The august Ms. July visits The High Bar to raise a toast to and raise the bar for… Connectivity. Cheers!

I love this interview. Her work is impactful. I dare say she’s the female Woody Allen of our day (only good.) (Can I say that?)

I like the comparison — they are both quirky, funny, strong-voiced auteurs — though I do believe the kids are safer with Miranda.
