full translated text: Knitted images, JACQUARDS OF NEW YORK, are as rich as the landscapes of the countryside. In postcard-like jacquard, here are New York and its surroundings, nothing but stitches to tell the story of the neon graffiti that scratches the American night, the hustle and bustle of Broadway, Manhattan, Kennedy Airport. The Empire State Building, the World Trade Center, or with the voice of Liza Minnelli and the humor of Woody Allen, knit this 100 Ideas blockbuster.

Nothing more American than Coca Cola and a cardigan with either the twin towers or UN building with TWO PLANES IN SILVER FLYING OVER

itโ€™s not a great movie, but it was an enjoyable and odd watch, from one of the writers of THE CHINA SYNDROME, featuring kids in bronzer as the aliens

it features but definitely isnโ€™t starring Robert Carradine; though the film opens with his whole backstory, it yadda yadda yaddas the leadsโ€™ relationship with a voiceover mentioning โ€˜two weeks in Mexicoโ€™ before dumping them in a military bunker courtesy of old timey miner Keenan Wynn

Despite its sick posters and Tangerine Dream score, WAVELENGTH (1983) plays closer to FOES (1977)- driven not by plot or character but military reaction, shoddy looking with amazing special effects (it looks cheap despite employing multiple Apache helicopters, etc)

Made In Sheffield was definitely a student project, but itโ€™s as surprising to see Jarvis Cocker as it is enlightening to realize why the best-loved bands of the scene didnโ€™t make it big as interviews unfold

Make sure you get the full version; thereโ€™s a shorter version that cuts out acts like Skafish (which, maybe not a bad call but)

I think part of the reason โ€œpeople only use 4 websitesโ€ is because every other website has, minimum, video ads top and bottom that will crash the site in a minute and one that suddenly takes up the whole screen like a jump scare

From Wikipedia: VCRs declined in popularity during the 2000s and in 2016, Funai Electric, the last remaining manufacturer, ceased production.

feel like a dumbass as I blithely assumed VCRs were still being manufactured, against all logic

image of Mechthild GroรŸmann and Udo Kier in Seduction: The Cruel Woman. she is dressed in sparkling black, leaning over him as he kneels on the floor looking up at her with those beautiful, pleading eyes. he's so sad-eyed tormented pretty in this film, it's breathtaking.

I missed the 2024 Ryuichi Sakamoto concert film "Opus," in which a near-death Sakamoto plays three songs a day on piano -- so i'm checking out the soundtrack -- totally stunning what a guy can do with just a piano and a perfect mind www.youtube.com/watch?v=ag_s...
