What makes for a strong New York movie? The standouts are often, like the city itself, unpredictable, a little shabby around the edges, sometimes exasperating but always compelling.

But I'm also not a charity, so when I loan money, I have to at least consider the potential for default. I'll loan money to my closest friends and family without a second thought, but that circle also extends to a larger community.
