Experimental music should be something that suggests a way of organizing your thinking, your attitude toward the world, which suggests that the world could be different.

For the second time...

Re: Recently Watched Films
That's a brilliant documentary, talk about serendipity. Interesting how long it took the filmmakers to decide that the Wiebe/Mitchell conflict was the "story". Put out on a really nice DVD too.Dohol wrote:

As an additional bonus, I don't live that far from the Wiebe's so I found it amusing to see neighborhoods that I've bicycled through.
(I like that poster for it better)

Didn't realize until watching the special features that there was also a dubbed version in English ... Iggy Pop does the voice of the Marxist uncle.

no love for Jimmy Lyons/Andrew Cyrille on the car radio?
Re: Recently Watched Films
I'm a big Ghost Dog fan; the RZA stuff is very infectious. Along with Dead Man and The Year Of The Horse, my only Jarmusch picks, not a fan of his earliest work.

It's from Nuba, a Black Saint platter I picked up around '80, with Jeanne Lee on synthesizer (!).Dan Warburton wrote:I was wondering who that was - what's the track?jon abbey wrote:no love for Jimmy Lyons/Andrew Cyrille on the car radio?

I never knew what to make of this movie? Is it a dark comedy or a morality tale or what?
Sandler didn't have a believable role to say the least....

Re: Recently Watched Films
Saw the Dark Knight twice in the last 3 days and I'm going to see it at Imax tomorrow.
Ledger is amazing.
The only thing that bothered me in the movie was the voice of Batman. A little annoying, but nothing major, I guess.

Rashomon (Kurosawa, 1950) - I dont have anything insightful to say about this other than I enjoyed it.

interesting for the first 20 minutes, or maybe less.Dan Warburton wrote:
Jim Jarmusch, Ghost Dog, 1999
This one came highly recommended by a friend but, like Dead Man, left me a little cold. Trying to find some kind of middle ground between Tarantino (sorry, but all those samurai "words of wisdom" don't do much for me) and Lynch (Henry Silva would have been perfect playing Angelo Badalamenti's expresso-spitting Italian gent in Mulholland Drive), but somehow lacking a bit of zest and humour. There are funny moments (love the old mafiosi rapping along with Flavor Flav), but Whitaker's just a bit too deadpan for my tastes. And I thought the RZA soundtrack was a bit flat too. If you want to see pigeons massacred on a rooftop, go for On The Waterfront instead.

Re: Recently Watched Films
Z (Costa-Gavras, 1969) - Good, straightforward political thriller based on a true story. Lacks a certain artistic element in the cinematography and dialogue that Battle of Algiers possesses. If not for the fact that its a true story, this has all the hallmarks of your typical Harrison / Jack "You Cant Handle The Truth" movies. Still solid.
Coincidental that I happen to be reading Libra by Don Dellilo at the same time, as I dont happen to watch or read too much political stuff, certainly not fictional accounts of real life assassination plots . . . . . . . .
