Pretty flaky memory for a very stable genius.
A possible positive spin on this mess... I was just reading Putin's comments about escalating things to nukes. Buried in those comments is his...
Yes late bloomers are the best! I would even say an adult who has the drive to learn will cover way more ground faster than a young kid. You know...
Exactly! Antonioni is the biggest reason why I’m skeptical of Fellini. Both developed their signature style in 1960-1970 as a sort of response to...
Times Square is with Ukraine! [IMG]
The argument that World War III is not a threat reminds me of all the people in the early days of 2020 who kept insisting "it's just another flu".
lol I would never call myself an actor, although I really wanted to be once. I was just lucky to live in a budding movie town (Atlanta) which had...
This reminded me of the brilliant "alternate trailer" someone did for The Shining. Definitely shows how music can make or break a film (and an...
Ball is one of the tapes I ordered... still hasn't arrived but I've been listening to it on youtube in preparation. I LOVE THIS ALBUM. The bassist...
I was in a few bad movies which shall remain forever nameless. One thing that surprised me is how atrocious the acting can be on set, and how...
I haven’t picked it apart, but my guess is (if people hear it) it must be in the music. I remember seeing an interview with Yes when Jon Anderson...
Mizoguchi is my fave b&w filmmaker. Sansho the Bailiff, Life of Ohara, Ugetsu (below). He did things with b&w that colors can never touch... [IMG]
I went through a long cynical phase (like 10 years) where I refused to waste my time chasing hope. I only followed clear paths & logical...
Awesome stuff, thanks for the bits! Like most latecomers all I know is In A Gadda Da Vida, but everything I'm hearing so far points to a...
I just took a flying leap and bought a bunch of Iron Butterfly on reel-to-reel tape. It cost me a pretty penny but the stuff is getting rare so I...
Another physical media junkie here! I collect mostly old scifi shows... Star Trek (1967-1969) UFO (1970-1971) Space: 1999 (1975-1977) Battlestar...
The one in Tennessee where you can see 4 states at the same time... forgot the exact name & height (it's not even that high, the land is just...
This is so true, but as I'm learning it's not the fault of the original production. It's the fault of the transfer process from film to home...
That's a really helpful thought! Maybe that's the hidden value in his early 60s stuff; it's not full tilt psychedelic yet, but you can see it...
That's exactly the feeling I get. He does some cool stuff, like in La dolce vita he breaks the 4th wall a lot, and that was definitely unusual for...
Separate names with a comma.
