Autonomia reviews Spielberg’s ‘West Side Story’ remake
This week, I’m introducing Autonomia’s initial promotional offer—my version of an IPO—a limited deal to subscribe for a year at 22 percent off the annual subscription price. This is only for new annual subscribers, so if you’re paying to subscribe at the monthly price, you, too, can save and upgrade at a promotional price.
Besides my review of Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story remake, December’s Autonomia will feature an article about a new book by Sharon Gless, an actress (Burn Notice, Ayn Rand: A Sense of Life, Queer as Folk, Cagney & Lacey) whom I’ve had the pleasure to meet, about her Hollywood career. Travelogue continues with new material. Look for more movie star articles. A review of various Objectivist lectures, events and conferences will be published in December.
If you do not pay to subscribe, you read or received this week’s obituary for Stephen Sondheim. However, you missed reading an examination of Billy Wilder’s journalism, this month’s Travelogue (Walt Disney World at 50), an essay on the fabulous new coffee table book about a show business fashion icon, an account of an important volume about Stalinism in Yale University’s annals of Communism—marking the book’s 21st anniversary—and a review of 2021’s best movie.
Paid subscribers gain added value. I review the publication with paid subscribers, soliciting feedback and delving into future plans, including video, telephone and face-to-face conferences. Founding subscribers get additional perks including product previews and opportunities to opt into Autonomia’s development. Subscribe here.
Choose among three subscription options:
Founding ($250 or more)
Monthly ($7)
Annual ($79) < take 22 percent off for a limited time in December ‘21
Get the details here. This month, I visited parts of America’s Show Me, Golden and Keystone states. I’m planning to visit the nation’s capital, Florida and Colorado. I have more to explore in Pittsburgh. Enjoy reading what’s in Autonomia’s library and what’s in progress. Read, write and communicate what you think. Autonomia’s almost finished year twenty twenty-one. Opt in on time for the new intellectual. One’s coming back stronger and sharper in ‘22.
