run, jack-o-lantern, run

Franka Potente, star of Run, Lola, Run and Creep, and John Carpenter go shopping in the German television show "Durch die Nacht mit..." ("Into the Night with...") which pairs to culture icons and one gives the other a a tour of their city. I've seen one episode where Canadian gay art porn director Bruce LaBruce shows off Toronto to notorious German indie horror director Jörg Buttgereit (Nekromantik). Other episodes include Bryan Ferry, Bai Ling, Toronto's own Peaches, Julie Delpy, Stewart Copeland, Daniel Hope, Robert Wilson, Amira Casar, Benjamin Biolay, Karl Bartos (Kraftwerk), Frank Black (The Pixies), Mike Patton, Adam Green, Carl BarDJ Hell, Moritz Bleibtreu, Dolph Lundgren and many more. They met in cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Paris, London, Berlin, Vienna, Budapest, Stockholm, Istanbul and Zurich.
