OCTOBER 2023 PICKS – movies to watch out for

 

around the office it’s not uncommon to hear the phrase “great things don’t come out every [expletive] fucking year”, often followed by “if you’re lucky, once in a decade – but, i mean, it’s a [expletive] fucking miracle if a generation produces one great thing”, and then maybe an hour and a half lecture on godard or kali malone.

here below are three good movies.

 

killers of the flower moon, scorsese

 

priscilla, coppola

 

anatomy of a fall, triet

 

go see them, one might make the cut to great. who knows? by lsd

quarantine watch list #3: an iranian vampire cult film “a girl walks home alone at night”

saw this years ago but was just talking about it tonight

its def worth a 2nd watch – trailer: “a girl walks home alone”

directed by ana lily amirpour

the dealer

produced for just under $57K and filmed, not in iran, but rather in the town of taft in s. california. if you haven’t seen it, do give it a try… “a girl walks home alone” was directed by ana lily amirpour, 2nd generation iranian, born in margate england, and grew up in california.  the film professed as “the first iranian vampire western” by its director is quite dark and funny… it premiered back in 2014 at the sundance film festival and it is quite a trip… especially the floating scenes of the vampire on her skateboard.  by pr

jarvis cocker talk about music and donald trump but with out meaning to…

another man: jarvis cocker was always good at scaring us… wasn’t he?

well finding this jarvis cocker interview on the BBC with him just reconfirms how cool documentary film maker adam curtis actually was and still is…

saw this years ago, but how relevant and true this holds today with president donald trump and the disappearance of truth and the normalization of injustice and falsehoods. definitely worth a watch again if you have already seen this. And a must if you have never seen it.

“we have become lost in a fake world”

if you can play it here, here is a << DIRECT LINK TO YOUTUBE >>

russia, donald trump, patty smith and a damn good documentary. grab a glass of your oat milk, get-off Instagram and sit your money maker down. the flash sales can wait.   by dd

Bohemian Rhapsody by Kanye West.. vs Freddie Mercury : )

freddie mercury’s reaction to kanye west (direct link) hilarious

and the trailer for the film Bohemian Rhapsody – great mix on the audio

and the notorious bicycle race making of video shot at wimbledon

queen, much like kanye, definitely had their embarrassing moments and songs but unlike kanye, they did also have some incredible masterpieces. a man with a golden voice and intriguing lyrics. cant wait to see it. by dd

rihanna vs black mirror : the resemblances are uncanny!!

rihanna – love on the brain

black mirror: jessica brown-findlay – anyone who knows what love is

I was wondering why i like this song, when i simply cannot stand rihanna, i can’t help but be intrigued if they actually were influenced to do this song based on the early episode of black mirror from season 1? by dd
