The Rip

It is sticky and disgusting here. Enough with the thunder and rain! We aren't in a bad horror movie.

Good news. My film was nominated at my school's annual best-of selection.

Off to get my mop cut.

Check out Radiohead covering arguably the best track off Portishead's most recent album!:
(loving Thom's classic metronome head movement)




Some pics I took during Portishead's amazing performance at Coachella:

"From Pop Music to Pig Farming..."

It has been a strange, mixed week of films:

'L'Avventura'- a little drawn out but beautiful. Loved the stark ending.



It is beautiful in large part due to Monica Vitti




'The Strangers' - Actually quite tense. Great score by tomandandy (can they do no wrong?) and use of sound and atmosphere. Loved the masks and reason for the killing- "because you were home." !!!!





and

'If....' (Lindsay Anderson, 1968)- Some great moments (slo mo look of desire between boy and gymnast) and an ending that sticks with you.

Also features this great track:





Working to the bone these days at the hospital. One old lady really got to me. She was shaking and begging me to show her the way home.
