socialisme : by Jean-Luc Godard (2010)

why has no one been talking about jean-luc godard‘s new film socialisme? it screened at the recent cannes film festival and described as his most recent ‘avant meditation’. looking forward to something more dimensional to cross the pond into a theater near me. i’ll have more to share once i’ve seen it myself, but from what i’ve read here (and with godard being described as stan brakhage crossed with noam chomsky), there are some explorations in the film that will be interesting to be brought into the conversation. by kl

ladies and gentlemen, the fabulous stains

after one of those long stressful days making you question the merits of life, this was just the perfect mindless film to watch. beautifully filmed and art directed, yet horribly written and acted. it’s a deviance worth the trouble especially given what a hidden “gem” it has been considered by some. story of a girl band rise and fall, featuring a beautiful super cool diane lane, the young laura dern who seems identical to the old laura dern, paul simonon of the clash, and paul cook and steve jones of the sex pistols. thanx kc for the reco xx. by dd
