Woman Crushing [it] Wednesday - Tamra Davis Edition

I was watching Billy Madison last night as I do from time to time and I noticed it was directed by a woman! This got me pretty pumped so I researched the woman who directed Billy Madison: Tamra Davis. 

Not only did she direct one of my favorite movies of all time, she studied directing under Francis Ford Coppola before going to film school at LACC by his advisement. She has been married to Mike D of The Beastie Boys since 1993. 

She has a cook book, Make Me Something Good to Eat and an adorable online cooking show www.tamradaviscooking.com that features her children helping with easy, health conscious recipes. 

Some of her other exciting directing credits include:

MmmBop (She got her start directing music videos she also has directed videos for Depeche Mode, NWA, Sonic Youth, The Indigo Girls, The Bangles and Black Flag)

Crossroads 

Half Baked

Episodes of: Ugly Betty, Greys Anatomy, My Name is Earl

Guncrazy (this film got Drew Barrymore a Golden Globe Best Actress nomination)

Tamra Davis also directed and supplied her personal footage of her deceased friend for her documentary: Jean-Michel Basquiat: The Radiant Child. The film documents her friend’s climb from being a homeless poet and grafiti artist to becoming an internationally famous artist with a heart breaking passing. 

So to recap, Tamra Davis has 2 gorgeous sons; has been married to a Beastie Boy for 22 years; has directed some cult favorite films and famous comedians including: Adam Sandler, Chris Rock and Dave Chapelle and the lady can cook! All with a Los Angeles Community College education. 

Color me inspired. Check back next week for more woman who are CRUSHING it.

This is beautiful. This is tragic. This is inspiring. This is dangerous. This, is art. This, is life.

An incredible documentary celebrating an incredible soul. There is never quite a word I can use to describe the feeling I get when I see a Basquiat—perhaps because of the complexity of his narratives, or perhaps the tragedy of his life. Yet each of his paintings capture your imagination and dig deep into your soul almost effortlessly, just like his quickest brushstrokes and crudest figures. It's raw and it's messy and it's him. This documentary does an exquisite job tapping into that, and digging deeply into his story from the people who were around him, perhaps digging deeply then as well; perhaps too deeply. 

If you get a chance, do watch this documentary, especially since it's on Netflix. Incredible. Exquisite. To you, Mr. Basquiat.
