Graphic Novel

In the realm of graphic novels, I am relatively unfamiliar with most content. However, one such novel comes to mind.

Tank Girl.

A super-fantastic book about a girl, who drives a tank while being very loud and very punk. She is a hero amongst the underground. They made a movie based on it. That was..an experience especially since they let Courtney Love configure the soundtrack.

A strange music-montage with clips from the movie. Good times.

Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amelie Poulain

Since films are on the mind at the moment--it would be downright shameful if I didn't post something about Amelie. Shameful!

This is perhaps the most beauteous film I have ever witnessed in this short lifetime. Such imagination and romance, that's all I could ask for. Also an amazing soundtrack by Yann tiersen. <3.

Here is the original trailer.

Now in English! (not as good but still a good trailer.)

Do with that what you will.

Film.

I have been meaning to blog about this film for a few months now. It is a relatively obscure movie that one of my friends, from the hometown, made me watch during a scrabble competition. (Yes, scrabble--words are cool).

It's called Fur. Along with being based on a real person with a fictitious male lead, Robert Downy Jr (or his body double) has the ass of a grecian god at some point during the movie. 

This was a clip that someone made, on ze intrawebs.

Keeping all this in mind, I think it is perfectly rent-worthy and own-able.

Por Que?

Quay Brothers?

They are brothers, they are animators, they are not photogenic but they make fantastic little things.

This is a clip from the piece that was installed in one of our galleries.

I enjoyed their use of clocks and bits. The detail! The detail!

Hey.

I turned 21.

(woo.)

A note.

I have respectfully forgotten about this blog entirely. 

For some reason I just cannot hold onto the concept of having more than three blogs at one time. 

Expect more in the near future--as in tonight!

I will blog my little heart out. But for now, a clip. 

I would like to get that good. (except for the end, that's just silly.)

Experimental film!

The long forgotten blog!

This is my venture into experimental film.

This project was inspired by my love of setting things on fire for the greater good. I used plastic army men and footage from around philadelphia. I will go back and edit out sections of this as well--but it's a work in progress for now. The person in this film besides myself was my friend Khrisha, he is my best prop.

There are voices in this as well, that is Rocky the Photographer.
