the gift of music. some great stuff. i love old school and nostalgia, but i also love how so many bands these days are simply jettisoning the confines of genre and just going with vibes, per song, per section. thanks for curating.
needless to say (by the look on my wife’s face) selections from “seven trumpets”- festive though the album may be- will not feature on our xmas morning playlist. uncrappy holidays.
Paul Romano and I have a running joke about feel good family films: irreversible, come and see, nil by mouth, the war zone, snowtown... last exit to brooklyn would definitely fit the criteria.
I have not seen it. I'll probably hunt it down because he can be such a madman. I was rewatching Last Exit to Brooklyn not too long ago and noticed he's in that, too.

break out 7 bowls for the 7 fishes dinner while God Shell pipes on Seven Trumpets. As Sam Rockwell says in 7 Psychopaths, "It's really emotional."
...seven churches, seven priests...

i’ve never seen that flick.
well worth checking out. Martin McDonagh writer/director. A lot of screwball moments and dialogue. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1931533/
clip quickly called raising arizona and dead alive to mind, for various reasons. two of my favourites. will check it out.

trailers (of course) always suck. it’s screwball, but there is some serious cutting satire in it.
crazy I don't remember this at all... especially considering the director and cast.
it’s the same basic story the hess duo tell time and again, only i respond to the creative writing, sci fi & film industry commentary in particular.
just went googling to see if it is still as unloved as it was in the past...
still is, for the most part, but
https://amp.theguardian.com/film/2021/apr/12/gentlemen-broncos-jared-hess-napoleon-dynamite
a nice defence of its oddball charms.
gentlemen bronchos has a funny take on sci fi writers, writing in general, appropriation, creativity...
but yeah. it’s excellent.
oh, that’s a feel good movie, i’d ever there was one.

all fantastic films.
have you seen “gentlemen broncos”? absolutely ridiculously awful. but very funny. rockwell is inspired in it.
