"Will we ever break out of the mold of Profit Motive, Commercial Imperative, Bottom Line, Product? Will the awesome free spirit of humans ever be allowed to offer us splendiferous visions instead of the calculated spurious anti-fantasies generated by the current crop of Hollywood directors and producers? Whatever the answers, I am content knowing that I contributed to the dissemination of such visions, passionate creativity, and radical challenges. To question what exists and to radically transform it remain our most compelling imperatives." – Amos Vogel, 1984. Ruhe in Frieden.

Driver X 4: The Lost and Found Films of Sara Driver out on DVD soon: SLEEPWALK | YOU ARE NOT I | WHEN PIGS FLY | THE BOWERY

Definitely one of the best films I have seen in a while.

Yeay for post-punk hedonism!

"It's not the destination, it's the adventure along the way...". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kh29_SERH0Y. See you in the slopes!

Yes.

Well you stand there, stand there with the nightshade / Her dripping ripping down your hands / And you ask me, ask me about the lightning / And the lady, lady, lady she understands / It's a dream for the future and the water for the sands / And the strangeness is wandering / Through many callin' lands.

Her performance in Martha Marcy May Marlene gave me the goosebumps. Amazing actress.

I need your steady hand... d-e-s-p-e-r-a-t-e-l-y.

Happy Birthday.

An incredible debut from first-time-director Markovich. My favourite film of 2011 so far.

Gold and silver / Is the autumn / Soft and tender / Are her skies / Yes and no / Are the answers / Written in / My true love's eyes.

One of the most beautifully shot movies in years.

"Most societies are ruled by mediocre people that have no vision and no imagination. Most rulers are scared of creation and creative people. Artists are funny people. All they want is to touch and move, challenge and surprise others. But dictators hate surprises more than anything else. All they want is to turn their territory into a neat little toy prison camp and play with their little toy people. Push them around, rip a leg or a head off now and then or throw them into the garbage when they are tired of their stupid, little doll faces." --Gottfried Helnwein

Paolo Baratta, the President of the 54th Biennale di Venezia, announced today that Christoph Schlingensief at the German Pavilion has been awarded the Golden Lion for the Best National Participation. :)

Wow. This godawful, wretched, steaming pile of waste makes even Interview with the Vampire look like a viable film.

Can we change his quote to 'Okay I'm a Nazi' please? What a fucking moron.

The new still makes the film look like a cheap slasher film. Awful.

R.I.P. Poly Styrene (3 July 1957 – 25 April 2011)

Works surprisingly well in 3D.

One of my all time favourite actors! ♥ +1

She's an automatic / He's a cosmic man / They will get together. / They should know better by now. / The meet in a garden / Down in old Japan / Where young love's forbidden / You've got to keep it hidden. / Modern love is automatic / Modern love is automatic.

Surely one of the finest American photographers.

I am the king of the echo people!
