Barbie's Not Just For Girls

Many readers and card-carrying netizens know Tiffany Shlain from The Webby Awards. This talented woman has significant credits in filmmaking as well. And, her film, The Tribe, is making a round here on the East Coast in a special showing at the 92nd St Y on February 22nd. If you can't wait till February, and I recommend that you don't, you can now also order a fabulous kitsch, er, kit, at www.tribethefilm.com for a mere $40. That won't set you back too many sheckles and will be a unique and entertaining (and informative) gift your friends and family won't forget. If you like bargains like I do then you'll be thrilled to know that if you buy a home screening kit now, you'll get a second DVD of The Tribe for free! Order your kit by Dec. 5th, to ensure delivery in time for Hanukkah. [The kit includes: The Tribe DVD: The Tribe: An unorthodox, unauthorized history of the Barbie Doll and the Jewish People ...in around 15 minutes; The Guide from the Perplexed film guide; Conversation Cards to spark the discussion.] Such a deal!
