My Take
Miranda July is one of those rare artists whose job title simply refuses to stay still: director, screenwriter, actor, musician, author, performance artist. From Barre, Vermont, by way of UC Santa Cruz, she has spent a career dissolving the borders between film, fiction, and live art. Me and You and Everyone We Know, The Future, and Kajillionaire all carry her unmistakably tender, slightly off-kilter sensibility. What I love is that her multidisciplinary work never feels like dabbling; each form deepens the others. She is, to me, a genuine original whose curiosity is the whole point.
