Woo-oo-oo-den Chair...

I find this video and song rather hypnotic. In a good way.

Patricia Neal...

Turned on the tv just a bit ago and good ol' TCM let me know that Patricia Neal died. So sad. I think she is just incredible. Made me want to immediately watch Breakfast At Tiffiany's and Hud again. 

Bye July...

July, come and gone. Deux family reunions. One down south and one up north. Both wonderful. 

Michael Borremans...

So I was flipping through this book the other day and came upon some images that immediately made a strong impression on me and I had to know more.  The artist name is Michael Borremans. He is a film artist and painter. I find his work haunting, quiet, familiar but at the same time completely refreshing.

I really liked this quote which hung at one of his exhibits in Cleveland. It gave me a small glimpse into why I tend to like Belgian design and art so much. Yes... of course he's from Belgium.
"Near the end of his life, Baudelaire--bored and besieged by creditors--made a disastrous trip to Brussels. In 1865, he wrote to a friend: "This highly detestable Belgium has already done me a great service. It's taught me to do without everything.... I've become sensible because of the impossibility of finding satisfaction." Similarly, Belgian artist Michael Borremans's determinedly dour drawings show how much artists may achieve without finding, or offering, fulfillment or resolution."

Marnie Montage...

So read my post on Marnie on White Rectangle if you want more detail on this wild and amazing Hitchcock film. But if you just want to jump right into delusional and fascinating wonderment... push play. Thanks to Alien Roc, whoever you are for putting this killer montage together to "Glory Box" by Portishead. Such a good song.

White Rectangle...

So I started a separate blog solely devoted to my sick obsession with film. Check it out here. Be sure to read my first post because I am serious about people sharing movie likes, dislikes and other related films.
