A Certain Kind of Death
At the death of a year in which far too many of my loved and admired ones passed away, I stumbled across this documentary about the procedures of death – specifically, those who die without next of kin. The YouTube description is “unblinking and unsettling”, and there are scenes of dead bodies in various states [...]
Marxes in the Mirror
Reading a bit about the Marx Brothers, who, it turns out, resembled each other a lot more than the stage makeup and costumes would have you believe. It was pointed out that the mirror scene in Duck Soup illustrates this. Sure enough, ask and ye shall receive wildly entertaining proof.
Rob Brydon and Steve Coogan: Were not the big buddies people think we are | Culture | The Guardian
http://www.guardian.co.uk/culture/2010/oct/26/steve-coogan-rob-brydonThe waiter brings the wine and pours a little for Coogan to taste. “Yeah, that’s lovely,” he says. “What are you doing with the wine-tasting?” hisses Brydon after the waiter has departed. “When you taste wine you’re not saying whether you like it, you’re saying if it’s not corked.” He illustrates his point, showing how [...]
Movie Posters 101 | Quizible
http://quizible.com/quiz/movie-posters-101/2921Fun – and not easy – movie poster recognition test. 74 was my final tally (of which I’ve seen 31). I’m surprised at how effective some of these posters were at sticking in my head. I’ll blame them for causing me to forget things like my 11-times-tables and all those piano lessons I had as [...]
“Mesrine,” “Scott Pilgrim,” and “The Expendables” : The New Yorker
http://www.newyorker.com/arts/critics/cinema/2010/08/16/100816crci_cinema_laneAnthony Lane’s movie reviews are few and far between, compared to newspaper scribes like AO Scott and Roger Ebert, but I’m convinced this is because he requires time to build up for the explosion of wit that infuses his reviews. That simplicity carries over into Richet’s film, which performs the unlikely trick of being both [...]
Chris Willman: One Last, Strange Night With David Carradine
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-willman/one-last-strange-night-wi_b_211492.htmlI only recognise David Carradine from dreck like Kung Fu, so wasn’t too broken up to hear of his suspicious death yesterday. After reading this account of his “strange” behaviour, however, I’m mourning a little. Sounds like a guy with interesting opinions and an unwillingness to compromise, artistically. (And then I remember, y’know, Kung Fu…)
X-Men Origins: Wolverine | Film | Movie Review | The A.V. Club
http://www.avclub.com/articles/xmen-origins-wolverine,27393One of the things I most enjoy about the AV Club is how the readers are often just as knowledgeable and funny as the writers. Here, they’ve hijacked the comments section of the Wolverine review to trade famous movie yells. As an old AV Clubber once commented, “Can opened. Worms everywhere.”
100 Best Movie Lines in 200 Seconds | Liquid Generation

Their idea of best movie lines does not match my idea of best movie lines.
