If I could be forgiven for straying off topic, I'd like to trumpet briefly a series of forthcoming events involving Gayby, the acclaimed feature-film debut by my husband, Jonathan Lisecki. (It has won, among other prizes, the audience award for Best Feature and the jury award for Best Acting Ensemble at the Ashland Independent Film Festival. Jonathan received his prizes from none other than the Twin Peaks Log Lady.) The movie is playing now at the Seattle International Film Festival. It shows in Hartford CT on June 9. On June 15 and 16 it will appear at the Provincetown Film Fest. That same day, the 16th, it will play both at Frameline in San Francisco — the great Castro Theatre — and at the LA Film Fest, where it will have a second screening on June 21. And on June 22 it will be featured at BAMcinemaFest, with a showing to follow in NYC's Rooftop series on June 23. "Hilariously bitchy but sweet," says the Village Voice.
