Yes that's the one. And for 1949 it's got some incredibly 'modern' camerawork.

Japanese poster for Stray Dog.

Well, my first modern day Kurosawa was a smash. STRAY DOG drips with atmosphere, tension and emotion. All brought together perfectly in the climactic chase.

Thanks to he who recommended it.

Mind you, if Toshiro Mifune had run his fingers through his hair any more I might have fainted.

Son? It's a tool that depends on stealing others work and it destroys the environment.

On a beach on the south coast, a slice of stone with at least ten holes in it.

Believe it or not, this is stone.

The irony of paying tribute to these heroes of Soul by using AI. I wish I hadn't spent all that money on Waterboys records when I could've just waited to get AI to do a good enough approximation for free.

R.E.M. X Buster Keaton's Sherlock Jr. | Showtimes and Tickets Silents Synced pairs classic silent movies with epic rock music to bring audiences a unique big screen experience. Buster Keaton’s 1924 comedy classic is reimagined with R.E.M. 's alt-rock mast...

I love REM, but I REALLY want to see Sherlock Jr. in the cinema BUT NOT THE FUCK LIKE THIS.

That's a hell of a motto to live by.

I worked in the edit suite for several Hat Trick shows and by god the atmosphere of terror that would engulf the place when they said "Jimmy's popping in later".

I've never seen cars do that, even in London. Bastards.

Early publicity photo of Saxon, several perms apparent.

Woke up with 'Machine Gun' by Saxon on the brain. And while it's mt my favourite track on Wheels of Steel (that'd be 'See The Light Shining', obvs), it's still pretty great.

Really?! sorry, I couldn't find a Contact Us link anywhere and rather panicked.

Bob Dylan can't be doing with lipsync issues.

I don't suppose anybody knows how to tell anyone at BFI Player that their copy of Kurosawa's HIGH AND LOW is unwatchably out of sync? #FilmSky

Yuuum

Jenny and I have had EXACTLY that combo two nights running (different potato formatting) so I feel your woe.

That's funny, I had exactly the same experience with Hats and them, and I was only wondering last week if I've grown into them yet.

You talented so-and-so.

Archive on 4 - Taxi Driver at 50: New York, Then and Now - BBC Sounds The film Taxi Driver is 50 years old. Michael Goldfarb looks at New York then and now.

Magnificent documentary by writer (and one time New York taxi driver) Michael Goldfarb, about Scorsese’s Taxi Driver, 70s New York and the transformed city of today www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

It's all threaded and ready to play, thanks.

"What E is the vibe you get while floating through the psychic cosmos?"

Hmm, I don't. I'll see if I can hook up a cable directly to the South Bank.

I just have to make sure I can get BFI on my telly and it'll be sayonara from me for the month!

Thank you very much - ah yes, High & Low rings a bell.

Loving the reboot of Blockbusters.

I've only seen The Classics, rather left it at that and moved on, any recommendations other than the above very welcome.

And Crimewatch.

Heck yes, I don't think I knew he did anything else.

A still from Aguirre The Wrath of God, where a ship is stranded in the treetop high above the jungle canopy.

At first I thought, How did that get stuck up there? but then I thought about that bit in Aguirre.

I'm now idly imagining an entire discussion podcast with that Latin piano loop throughout its entirety.

It's not perfect, it is a mash-up of genres and several other films but hours later I'm still won over. And how many action comedy dramas have you seen with only two male speaking parts?

And the sound!!!
