By - Nick Adrian For fans of musicals, bright cinematography, and the French New Wave By the early 1960s, the movie musical had started to run its course. Gone were the days of MGM’s elaborate Busby Berkley productions and Warner Brother’s Technicolor fantasies - what was once arguably one of cinema’s most popular genres was slowly dwindling. However, in France a group of young filmmakers were making “waves” over their […]
By - Nick Adrian For fans of French cinema, fine cuisine, and Juliette Binoche. Rarely do you see a film that is a pleasure to more than just the two usual senses associated with the medium: sight and sound. But Trần Anh Hùng’s French-language film The Taste of Things graces the cinematic palate like a fine four-course meal. If cinema can be art where every frame is a painting, Hùng’s […]
By - Gareth Jones For fans of low budget zombie movies, late 70’s horror with a bit of art, innovative minimal scores, Peter Cushing and John Carradine cameos A few Sundays ago, I was lucky enough to be perusing one of my favorite places on Earth, Seasick Records. I went in just to relax, say hello to friends, with no intention of buying anything. I thought, why not just flip […]
By - Kristi Houk Recommended if you like: Wild Flag, Kristin Harsh, Margaret Glassy, Liz Phair “You really can’t love without letting go…” -Mary Timony Ain’t it the truth? There are many of these “truths” circling Timony’s latest release, Untame the Tiger, her first solo album in 15 years. Not that she hasn’t been making kick ass music since then - she definitely has - see Wild Flag, Ex Hex, […]
In today’s scene, where the echoes of DIY ethos clash with the glossy facade of mainstream appeal, Glitterer is back once again, working through it all with their latest LP: "Rationale." In a way, even though this album is not Glitterer's first record it is THIS bands first. What started of as a solo side project of Ned Russin has now been fully realized and and this new fuller version […]
By - Jackie Lo If you like: Stereolab, Air, French Pop, electropop, conservation and environmentalism I admit I have a soft spot for French music. Well, a lot of things that are French actually. The language, the food, the film, the fashion, and the architecture and design. Late summer of 2020, during the height of the covid-induced shut down, I even did an entire show dedicated to my favorite French […]
In the ever-spinning wheel of Hollywood nostalgia, Paramount Pictures has announced a riveting turn with the appointment of David Katzenberg to helm the forthcoming Ferris Bueller spinoff. As the cinematic wheel turns, we find ourselves revisiting the iconic tale of Ferris Bueller, albeit with a refreshing twist that is sure to stir the hearts of fans old and new alike. Katzenberg's appointment at the directorial helm marks a curious yet […]
Well, grab your popcorn folks, because it seems John Oliver is on a mission to turn the Supreme Court into a real-life episode of "Deal or No Deal." In a move that's equal parts hilarious and eyebrow-raising, the British comedian and host of HBO's "Last Week Tonight" has reportedly extended an offer to Justice Clarence Thomas: a cool $1 million per year to gracefully exit stage left from his Supreme […]
Gareth’s Picks Buck and the Preacher (1972) Sidney Poitier's directorial debut is this well-made western that also stars the great Harry Belefonte. Poitier and Belefonte are brilliant together as they tell a story of black men in the west, an often untold story. Belefonte in particular, greatly enjoys playing a complicated preacher that steals and kills, with all of his usual charms, in spite of his hideous teeth which he […]
