9.0 Scritti Politti: The Last Time I Looked | moodboom

…what I've been up to, more or less…

7.5 The Life of David Gale / 12 Angry Men

Old and new commentaries on capital punishment. Neither one has any final answers, of course, but at least they both attempt to provoke a few questions… ...
9.5 Pulse

I just realized, several toe-tapping hours after the end of this movie-trip-around-the-world, that there wasn’t a single spoken word of English in it! It was that good that I didn’t even notice. I want to see this one a hundred times more! Fortunately, I found the web site for the...
9.5 Death Cab For Cutie – I Will Possess Your Heart

Repeat… repeat… repeat… the driving bassline, the beautiful harpsichord/dulcimer/autoharp-ish piano, the anti-shuffling drums… can’t get enough… Also enjoying Vampire Weekend (like everyone else did months ago)… A-Punk is The Beat in a bottle… ...
8.5 David Sedaris – When You Are Engulfed In Flames

A Kurt Vonnegut for the short-attention-span generation. He always writes about the most dysfunctional details of the members of his family, I would hate to be one of them – but sometimes I feel like maybe I am. :P And he started off skewering me with horror stories of my most extreme...
9.0 Chris Rock: Never Scared

Economics, drugs, sexism, abortion, racism – this guy knows the REAL heart of the issues. He’s un-PC, crude, and brilliantly insightful, all at once. Oh, and FUNNY!! ...
8.5 IMAX Attack of the Clones

Had a good time watching this one – beautiful panoramic scenes filling your vision while you can feel the bass of huge spaceships with those great Star Wars sound effects move your clothing. And of course who could get bored watching a 50 foot tall Natalie Portman? Ready for the next big...
9.5 Blazing Saddles

Re-watched this old classic recently with boo, we were bustin’ a gut… it’s so hard to find stuff this brilliant any more… must have single-handedly made the word “nigger” laughable and irrelevant… big comic book larger-than-life laughs on a budget that was...
9.0 It Might Get Loud

I did not know this before watching, but in addition to being both a musical legend and a genius, James Page is a real gent as well. And wouldn’t Sir Jimmy Page just sound really nice? ...

9.0 Scritti Politti: The Last Time I Looked

My mancrush on Green continues with this, from the B-side of the Boom Boom Bap single.

Check him out gettin’ all schizo and philosophical…
