Went to see the Etaix last night. Pretty good. He looks like a combination of Keaton and the Italian Totò.
― Cosmic Fopp (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 26 October 2012 15:01 (eleven years ago) link
It was pretty good, like his version of Three on a Couch (more good gags tho).

so was Alma Reville the secret genius of Psycho?
― saltwater incursion (Dr Morbius), Friday, 2 November 2012 23:56 (eleven years ago) link
not so much the genius as the bulwark. it's kinda lightweight and i'm not crazy about certain casting choices but it's fun and, thankfully, funny
caught 'post tenebras lux' tonight...like apichatpong w. doing 'tree of life' or something. bizarre and beautiful and i didn't totally understand it but i want to see it again!
