Captured by Clayton Patterson etc

Here's the trailer for "Captured" which has been playing around the city recently. To a certain degree, this is the way it used to be downtown.

"Since 1979 Clayton Patterson has dedicated his life to documenting the final era of raw creativity and lawlessness in New York City's Lower East Side, a neighborhood famed for art, music and revolutionary minds.

His odyssey from voyeur to provocateur reveals that it can take losing everything you love to find your own significance."

Classic. Nicely done. Can't wait to see what the tour vans and stretch Hummers bring into the neighborhood this weekend...
