Thirst Street, a sordid trauma study with a twist on fairy tale idealizations, denotes a significant departure from Silver’s unbound form to something more staged and mannered. As the fate of Silver’s characters come to question, and the fabled nature of fate itself does too, we endure a Silver tragedy at its most pre-designed.
From his usual outlines to a 25 page treatment, Thirst Street still maintains some of Silver's unscripted sensibilities. Dialogue was improvised. Shots were intuited on the day, guided by the atmosphere of a setting and the emotional necessities of a scene. Still it maintains a form, with a stylized beginning & end, and a more fluid, naturalistic, midsection.
Nathan details the use of these new formal elements, the ways which they apply thematically to Thirst Street, and their current and hoped for evolutions in his future work.

If you're a federal employee, times are certainly tough. AMC Theatres is looking to help you escape the government shutdown for a few hours. Beginning today, AMC Theatres is giving federal workers free popcorn. The theater chain announced that federal employees will receive a free small popcorn at AMC concession stands simply by showing a valid government or military ID. "The offer is good until common sense is restored in Washington D.C., or, more likely, untili the shutdown ends or we run out of free popcorn," AMC Theatres said in a statement. "There are hundreds of thousands of federal workers whose lives are being impacted," Executive Vice President of Operations John McDonald said. "While we can't do anything to resolve gridlock in...

Thanks to some mega-hissy-fitting partisan disagreements on Capitol Hill, the U.S. government is partially shut down right now, meaning there are oodles of federal workers — the kind who don't get to sit around and bicker aimlessly for a living, heyyyyyyyy Congress — who've been put on forced leave, in many instances without pay.
Yeah, yeah, you've probably heard all about that by now, but here's a new development to the story: free popcorn!
The love of free stuff is as 'Merican as apple pie, and since the movie biz has probably become one of the red, white and blue's chief exports anymore, it seems mighty fitting that one of the nation's biggest movie-slingers is lookin' out for those poor, displaced feds.
AMC Theaters has announced that until this whole government-no-longer-functioning thing has blown over, federal worker bees barred from the hive can head over to their establishments and feast away...

Hey, it's not health care or even a panda cam, but we'll take good news about the government shutdown where we can get it. The fine folks at AMC are offering federal employees a free small popcorn... and a free movie ticket.
According to AMC, "The offer is good until common sense is restored in Washington, D.C., or, more likely, until the shutdown ends or we run out of free popcorn. Consistent with past free popcorn giveaways on Tax Day Weekend, the purchase of a ticket is not necessary to receive the offer."
John McDonald, AMC's exec VP of operations, said, "There are hundreds of thousands of federal workers whose lives are being impacted... While we can't do anything to resolve gridlock in Washington, D.C., we can provide a few hours of entertainment and free popcorn while they wait to get back to work."

Federal workers can claim a free small popcorn at AMC Theaters while they wait for Congress to get them back to work. The nation’s second-largest exhibition chain on Tuesday said it was offering free small popcorn to U.S. government employees, even if they were not among the 800,000 put out of work by the shutdown over the funding President Obama’s Affordable Care Act health plan.
