*Swirl Movie Alert: A Thing As Big As The Ocean*

A Thing As Big as the Ocean, a Four Birds Pictures film, is about two strangers leaving New Orleans and travel west hoping to take life in a new direction.


Along the way they are compelled to share and confront their half-realized dreams. Lemmy, played by Jeff Harms encounters Darlene, played by Thai Tyler, cross paths and set out on a journey of self-discovery.  Check out the clip:







  

Written and directed by Army brat Joseph Cashiola (hoo-AH), Ocean is one of several screenplays that he's written.  Although a graduate of La Salle University, he's often called himself a "self-taught" filmaker.


For more info about Joseph, hit him up the film's website.  You can also follow the movie and the actors and see behind the scene photos on Facebook!  Don't you just love indies?

What Does An Asian College Kid Know About Stepping In The Name of Love?

I tell you what, there's absolutely nothing that will stop young creative, progressive people from getting their message heard. The passion and energy that they possess is simply limitless.


Some how I became a Facebook friend to one such kid by the name of Vouthynar "V" Sovann.  While attending college at Maryland University, V manages to find time to admin not one but two sites dedicated to interracial relationships.


 I've showcased one of his sites previously on DWB but didn't realize he was one of the founders back then.  Interracial dating among Asian men/black women continues to draw the curious and one topic posted by a member on his forum drew over 150 responses!


V, himself an interracial dater, is known for his lavish house parties, family friendly events, and holiday inspired bashes.  I have yet to make it to one of his parties but I've heard that people are traveling from as far as Texas and Georgia to attend.


To check out V's Beyond Skin Deep United and be heard, follow the jump...


Side note: Hit up V's Facebook Page to see him "stepping"-  It's too cute.

Bravo's Top Chef Stirring...I Mean Swirling It Up In the Kitchen!

Oh goody!  I've been scanning all over the blogosphere to catch a microcosm of coverage on the semi-interracial lust couples on Bravo's Top Chef. 




Color me late to the party on this for I care not:


Ok first love story occured between Barbadian beauty Tamesha and hot-n-spicy Angelo.  Now before Tamesha got the ax, Angelo followed her around the house like a love-sick Chihuahua. 


Shamelessly whispering in her ear and professing his feelings for her, Angelo left the other contestants feeling a bit uneasy.  As on cue, the usual  suspects were straight hating and giving Sweet T plenty of advise. Recently, Tamesha has been quoted saying the two are "just friends" but we can dream can't we?

Next  up we have the storyline between Tiffany and Ed.  Don't quote me on this but I believe these two are also eleminated.  I'm currently trying to catch up on the shows via On Demand, and I'm about 2 episodes behind.  


For your reading pleasure, here's an interesting link about Ed and Tiffany after the jump...

Viva la internet!

Funky Winkerbean- Does Interracial Storyline Imitate Life?

Batiuk decided that when Lisa Moore's widower, Les, moved on, it would be with a black woman named Cayla. The ghost of Lisa even pops up to give Les the thumbs-up on the union, when Cayla admits to being a Woody Allen fan. Later on, the two middle-aged single parents steal a moonlit lip lock in the car- Saloman

So the last time I checked, Les and Cayla made a cameo appearance back in May. In the last panel, Cayla was standing in the cafeteria with egg on her face:


What's up with Batiuk introducing a black woman to the mix after Les' wife kicked the bucket? Why did Batiuk feel it was necessary to age them like Rip Van Winkle? Orderlies will be serving smashed peas to these two the next time we see them!

Will anything ever come of these two? Why even introduce Cayla while it's clear that Les is infatuated with Susan. Why does Cayla look so frumpy? Or is the storyline so boring predictable it doesn't really matter?

So many questions...

True Blood Season 3: Bon Temps Taste The Swirl

Alright I know True Blood is just a wee bit sickening with Ms Stackhouse running around acting like Ms Millie off The Color Purple. However the Tara, Jason, Sam and Eggs quadrangle more than made up for it the previous seasons.
IRR Alert--> Speaking of romances, looks like Tara has a new admirer. This looks sexy and yet frightening at the same time.
I'm just dying to see what the producers are planning to do with Aunjeanu Ellis. That's a baaad lady right there. Can't you just see her and Eric hooking up? No? Well I can see me hooking up with him. I'd be one fangbanging sistah if I lived down in the Bayou LOL.

Bon Temps taste the swirl.

Niecy Nash Took It There On Dancing With The Stars

In case you missed it last week, Niecy Nash and her dance partner Louis Van Amstel brought the story of a 1960's interracial couple to life.

Alas Nay-Nay eventually got the ax but kudos to her and Lou-weez for the courage to take it there.

Wait did Lou-weez tell Nay-Nay that she gotta help him fight his battle too? Naw Boo fall back. You got Elton, Rosie, Ellen (Janet Reno) and both the city of San Francisco and the ATL to help you. Ya'll doing just fine!

Side Note: Nay-Nay went a little hard on Pancake #45
