Thanks, SB, but since I don't rent nuttin', it's a matter of seeing if it shows up on the T. of V.

So Ingmar Berman is dead, eh?  I spent many a happy hour down in the dank basement where our television resided when I was 12/13, watching Ingmar Bergman movies on, I think, channel 9 (NY), where Judith Crist (!) hosted a Bergman film every Friday (or Saturday) at 9 (or 10 or 11) p.m.  They were dubbed but uncut, I believe.  I especially liked The Virgin Spring and The Seventh Seal

Ah, youth.

I think I've seen 12 Bergman films so far (including the recent Saraband, which was also great), spreading out viewings so that the well doesn't run dry anytime soon.  As far as I'm concerned, he's maybe the greatest director of them all.   Just an uncompromising, devastating, transcendent body of work.  Agree w/ Crimestick that Smiles of a Summer Night is a good place to start to anyone who's been bamboozled by the limiting "depressing" rep.   No one should deny themselves the pleasure of at least seeing Fanny and Alexander, the full six-hour version.

Sarah, (just to clarify) when i said "video find," I meant that as in music video find. So, it still might show up across your TV screen.

Mark Gonzales wrestling a chair.

Gummo is classic.

Speaking of Mark Gonzales, I recently saw the video for "West Coast" by Coconut Records and it features footage of him skating at this museum in Germany. I thought it was amazing. Plus, I happen to like the song as well.


That footage was all from this Cheryl Dunn movie: http://www.cheryldunn.net/films/back_worlds_for_words.html
and yeah, it's pretty great

I bought an amplifier from Britta once and she was pretty dreamy. I had to refrain from saying that the deal she gave me was truly outrageous.

When I was a little girl, I had the Jem! board game and also a Jem!-branded KEYTAR. It was awesome. I might have had other toys, but those two stand out.

That's a good-looking woman.  Even though she's married to that guy, if I met her I'd have to break out my new "Hot Rockin' Ronnie" come-on technique, which is basically just saying, "So... what's your story?"


I believe he uses this on Therese, Terre T, and every other woman who worked the marathon shows in the early 2000s.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!
