Given my penchant for slacking I thought it was only appropriate to finally getting around to watching Richard Linklater’s cult classic, Slacker. I wasn’t sure what to expect as I had only heard some details. I only really knew that it was more vignette based and that there wasn’t a singular plot that the movie…
Levison is pretty well established at the fish processing job last we saw. He’s de facto the head of the crew because some of his roommates from earlier left and also probably due to the amount of time he’s been there. We can only hope that this doesn’t go to his head too much. Even the…
