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.)
