1968 master piece, TEOREMA directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini
as promised here’s pier paolo pasolini’s film starring laura betti, silvana mangano, massimo girotti, and the amazing terence stamp (toby dammit and the most amazing article by george porcari in cineaction on that film). much inspiration for nicholas mendez i would assume… by dd

Pier Paolo Pasolini and the scissor sisters: invisible light
pet shop boys? frankie goes to hollywood? relax… it’s the scissor sisters. not a fan of the band nor the song but the video references to pasolini & bunuel are awesome and unexpected for such a pop video. some nice moments and a nice enough girl mireia contreras. produced by canada, director nicholas mendez. by dd

janelle monae: funky town tight rope
was flipping through videos today and came across this little funkstress’s tightrope video. first off its refreshing to see a “no tits-and-ass” in a R&B/funk/soul/hip hop music video. the retro references of motown, james brown, and street music of the 60’s are just lovely and well done, not to mention that our girl happens to float like a butterfly. the beat and her moves remind me of andre benjamin (andre 3000), one of the coolest brothers in the business. i was sure his hand was involved in this but sad to find out that it was p.diddy who signed her. at least they got big boi on there. well done beautiful girl. by m+m

uber kool: lescop la foret
Un coup de feu dans la nuit
Une douleur glaciale qui s’élance
La Foret soudain qui frémit
Puis s’installe le silence
Tu te tiens là assourdie
Tu prononces la sentence
Le deuxième coup est parti
Et fait bientôt la différence
Dans la Foret je te retrouve à l’heure opportune
Un rendez vous improvisé sous la lune
Sourires crispés, situation compliquée
Je sens ton souffle qui me frôle le coup
Un pistolet chargé me caresse la joue
Tu me dis “cette fois c’est moi qui joue”
Dans la foret la première détonation raisonne
Un coup de feu puis deux, mon corps qui frissonne
Puis doucement s’écroule
Plus rien, plus un bruit
Personne n’a rien vu par chance
Pour moi maintenant c’est fini
Et tout le monde s’en fout, tu penses!
Te voilà maintenant qui t’enfuis
Tirant ta révérence
La foret de nouveau frémit
Et je profite du silence
Dans la Foret je te retrouve à l’heure opportune
Un rendez vous improvisé sous la lune
Sourires crispés, situation compliquée
Je sens ton souffle qui me frôle le cou
Un pistolet chargé me caresse la joue
Tu me dis “cette fois c’est moi qui joue”
Dans la foret la première détonation raisonne
Un coup de feu puis deux, mon corps qui frissonne
Puis doucement s’écroule… by ars

sex pistols interview: Malcolm McLaren talks about unemployment at Zuccotti park
hilarious! this sounds like it was recorded yesterday? except malcolm goes straight from unemployment and police brutality to selling clothes. punk became such a sell out, and i should know cause i’m related to joey ramone. by dd
