It was nice to see my old friend Rhys Southan at this weekend’s Koch Fellow reunion—and to be reminded that I’d meant to link his blog Beat Jeremy Coon. See, Rhys and Jeremy graduated from the same high school the same year, both aspiring filmmakers. Well, Jeremy was the producer of Napoleon Dynamite, and Rhys is determined to catch up with his erstwhile classmate. Check out his chronicle of the quest.

I like Rhys. I hope he’s aspiring to do more than produce something like Napoleon Dynamite, a wretched film that exposes the worst excesses of alterna-indie culture for all its incredible vacuity: hipness in search of meaning, vision, substance, or even just a fucking plot.
