A new mod lets you smash and shoot Flock's automatic license plate readers around the fictional Los Santos.

For a diehard fan of, meeting director and screenwriter Richard Kelly is a thrill in itself. But to first encounter him as a silhouette in a darkened movie theater is to feel almost like a character in one of his films--unmoored by indefinite space and physics, questioning your altered perception. It's a hot Friday in mid-August when I sit down with Kelly, 51, at Santa Monica's Aero Theatre, a beloved repertory venue that makes a key appearance in, his remarkable debut feature.
