People may think it somewhat went away because you don’t see it all over the trains like it used to be back in the ’80s, but if you pay close attention you can still see “tags.” They’ll write their graffiti name on a postage sticker. We use those in the film as well, they’ll stick them all over the inside of the train.””<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://www.papermag.com/2013/03/meet_gimme_the_loots_tashiana.php">Tashiana Washington (aka Sofia), via Paper Magazine</a></em>http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46260383851http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46260383851Mon, 25 Mar 2013 13:08:04 -0400Gimme the LootNow playingIFCsundancegraffitigraffbombingstreet artsticker artArtFilm<iframe class="spotify_audio_player" src="https://embed.spotify.com/?uri=spotify%3Auser%3Agimmethelootfilm%3Aplaylist%3A2s9E8jtOLlo5V31ZEmg6k5&view=coverart" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" width="500" height="580"></iframe><br/><br/><p>The #GimmeTheLoot soundtrack playlist is on Spotify! <span>Listen up, y’all!</span></p>http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46225191184http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46225191184Sun, 24 Mar 2013 23:41:00 -0400Gimme the Lootnow in theatersFilmMusicspotifysoundtrackNew York Citygospelliarssoulr'n'b<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loll3dpF2j1qbb0gbo1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loll3dpF2j1qbb0gbo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loll3dpF2j1qbb0gbo3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loll3dpF2j1qbb0gbo4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loll3dpF2j1qbb0gbo5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loll3dpF2j1qbb0gbo6_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loll3dpF2j1qbb0gbo7_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loll3dpF2j1qbb0gbo9_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loll3dpF2j1qbb0gbo10_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loll3dpF2j1qbb0gbo11_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Photos from location scouting for #GimmeTheLoot.  See the pieces fall into place - catch GTL now at @IFCcenter: http://bit.ly/10ihXKu</p>http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46173256402http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46173256402Sun, 24 Mar 2013 13:24:00 -0400Gimme the Lootnow in theatersFilmfilmmakingNew York Citylocation scoutingurbanurbexphotographycitiescityscape<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/9e3867412f16ea0f6ec6c682252d8970/tumblr_mk6c3sBFfE1qmo25fo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Incognito at Kaps’ (where the #GimmeTheLoot party scene takes place). </p>http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46170508464http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46170508464Sun, 24 Mar 2013 12:50:17 -0400Gimme the Lootnow in theatersFilmgraffitigraffbombedmaskedurbanpartyNew York City<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/0b5370773105f88b6b4a8a3743b51699/tumblr_mk691lqcrx1qmo25fo1_250.gif"/><br/><br/><p>Who says there’s no time for fun when you’re hustling for the biggest graffiti heist in the history of NYC? </p>http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46165460815http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46165460815Sun, 24 Mar 2013 11:44:09 -0400Gimme the Lootnow in theatersFilmTy HicksonZoë Lescazeindependent filmgraffitinew yorkGIFfootsiekissmaking out<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/b51b330b95121ff504df6a3dddc94177/tumblr_mk54crRQFN1qmo25fo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>A lot of the reviews for <span>#GimmeTheLoot </span><span>have raved about its “New Yorkness.” You can’t get more “New York” than some stoop sittin’! </span></p> <p>See the movie IN New York NOW! http://bit.ly/10ihXKu</p>http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46119342895http://gimmethelootmovie.com/post/46119342895Sat, 23 Mar 2013 21:05:15 -0400Gimme the LootNow in TheatersFilmtashiana washingtonTy HicksonNew York Citynycstoopindependent filmfilmmaking““A celebration of outlaw creativity … [Leon] has an acute eye and ear for the sights and sounds of the real New York … and ‘Gimme the Loot’ has a lot to say about the contradictions of a place that is defined by both abundant opportunity and ferocious inequality.””<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://nyti.ms/Y6SHXy">A.O.
