Studying war and tank stuff for upcoming part and I ended up on Fury again. Steven Price’s soundtrack has this theme that keeps surfacing; that fully unfurls with Norman. What a cracker. What a film. Do not watch with snacks.
Do that kind of acting
Many Ridley Scott titles sit on my Favourite Films list, but I’ve never got around to watching Thelma and Louise…until now. It’s hard to believe this film is 33 years old – it’s an immaculate piece of work. Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis are electrifying in the title roles – performances now filed under: Do that kind of acting!
…as it looks to you
“When you go out to paint, try to forget what objects you have before you, a tree, a house, a field or whatever. Merely think here is a little square of blue, here an oblong of pink, here a streak of yellow, and paint it just as it looks to you, the exact colour and shape.”
Claude Monet
Numbah! I Need A Win
“though this player’s going nowhere
there’s no giving in
I need an angel on my shoulder
Somebody watching over”
What I love about this one: the lyrics speak about the struggles of life and yet the vibe these artists deliver, to my ear, is distinctly uplifting – it’s super groovy and signals resilience and staying the course despite life’s challenges. Also loving the retro styling. Thanks Mamas Gun.
