WHO IS THIS GREGORY A. BUTLER GUY, AND WHY EXACTLY SHOULD I LISTEN TO HIS VIEWS ABOUT MOVIES?

Hi, I’m Gregory A. Butler, a freelance writer, political activist and professional carpenter from New York City.

Besides writing on various topics and putting up buildings for a living, I’m also an avid fan of contemporary motion pictures.

I see a LOT of movies, and I have some very well formed opinions about the state of modern cinema. I’d like to share those opinions with you and here what YOU, the reader, have to say about the movies.

And if you were wondering about the other stuff I write about – I have two books in print “DISUNITED BROTHERHOODS …race, racketeering and the fall of the New York construction unions” and “LOST TOWERS …inside the World Trade Center cleanup” [both available on amazon.com, if you’re interested] and the forthcoming “UNION FAIL …the death spiral of the New York labor movement”, tentatively scheduled to go into print on May 1, 2010
