Legalize It!

He's a complicated man, and no one understands him but his woman... Serge Gainsbourg.

Does anyone know where I can score some Cannabis? I mean on DVD, dig?

MF KONG!

This is currently for sale and if anybody wants to sorta get it for me, that would be really sweet of you. Contact me and I can set you up with the seller. There would be copious amounts of thanks given and you could come see it now and then if you called ahead of time and stuff. It's an original French 2 panel, it's gorgeous and nearly eight feet wide!

Toronto: The Glory Days

I am primed about tomorrow night's screening at Cinematheque of three short films documenting Toronto's original Broken Social Scene - sixties Yorkville (Robin Spry's Flowers on a One Way Street) and seventies Rochdale (Ron Mann's Dream Tower), plus a reel of footage Mann shot on a Bolex of Yonge Street in the bad old days of the Biltmore, the Rio and the Coronet! I am so ready for a time capsule of life in Toronto when I was very young... I look forward to a night of red and gold TTC buses and yellow cop cars whizzing past the lens...and hopefully there will be a shot of a Harvey Wallbanger steakhouse...

What'd he expect?!

a mighty and broad statement

A snap taken by my pal Shan that he posted on FB from the Prince Charles Cinema in London. I do beg to differ on that statement...

The Original 99 Cent Roxy... today

Brings a tear to your eye...

Claudia Jennings 30 years gone

To mark the 30th anniversary of Claudia Jenning's death, I am taking part in the Temple Of Schlock's Claudia Jennings Weekend Blog-a-Thon and I'm not about to waste any time explaining anything about her as, hopefully, others who are properly well-versed will do those types of things. Here, I'll just be occupying your time for a few moments and hopefully your eyes will be given some small joy from these terrific posters for her films.

Kneading

What the Italians do with a bed... the Americans so with a beach!

Righted Ahhh

Happy Birthday!

Glenn Gould, the greatest Canadian (and there are lots of them) of all!!



A nice Japanese B2 for the theatrical release of two NFB documentaries on Glenn.

sons of Lee Marvin AND Jack Palance

Waiting for the print of this to arrive so that I can swig some whiskey and fire my shotgun in the projection booth... Monte Walsh will be in the house! Also starring Bo Hopkins! Not to be confused with the Tom Selleck TV remake from 2003. That's a mustache of a lesser god.

the DON is back

Time to kick these bums out of the cheap seats and get back to blogging!

1959

*sniff*

Genuine beauty

It gets so eerily quiet around this place when the Toronto International Film Festival gets going and 2/3 of the staff take off to hobnob with the glitterati and yours truly is left to just aimlessly drag a broom around the place and ceaselessly sing (I don't want to go to) Chelsea by Elvis Costello. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's _________ so I guess glum me, misfit myself and unglamourous I will just keep on keeping on as though George Clooney meant nothing at all.

And why not just indulge myself a little here?

A recently acquired piece of gorgeousness in the form of a Japanese tatekan (or 2 panel) for Pier Paolo Passolini's fantastico 1968 art-film, Teorema, starring the unbelievably resplendent Silvana Mangano. Oh, and Terrence Stamp is in it someplace too.





Here she is enjoying some class privileges with husband Dino De Laurentiis and family and holding one of the cigarettes that would help her develop lung cancer, I'm sure.





A scene (that doesn't feature Silvana)...

Genuine renaissance man

It's a poster but it's also the trailer. And I love it!
