Reykjavík Grapevine - 25.09.2015, Page 32

“I was surprised. I didn't imagine that the Israelis and
the Zionists in the USA would accuse us in the City
Council of anti-Semitism and hate."
For a long-time pro-Palestine activist, former
councilwoman Björk Vilhelmsdóttir sure seems
kinda oblivious, huh?
"Reykjavík must be punished for its hypocrisy. Any
city with a mayor who visited China yet boycotts
Israel is truly the capital city of hypocrisy."
In an altogether predictable turn of events,
Grapevine's inboxes and comment sections have
been flooded by outraged Israelis and their
supporters.
“I’m not a prisoner to that horrible event. I can talk
about it without sentimentality. That may sound cold
and nonhuman, and who knows, maybe it makes me
some kind of a monster.”
Davíð Roach's interview with poet Bjarni
Bernharður is outright chilling. A must read.
“The physical presence of the actor becomes
important, before that it's just dialogue, really.
Just words on a page.”
Cover star David Cronenberg is RIFF's guest
of honour. Some of his films are pretty gory.
They’re also great. We interviewed him, it's
cool, check it out!
