^ sad but true, and more herbie hancock is always nice.
how do you feel about Blow Up? famously sampled by dee-licious? My old man got "jammin' with herbie" in some Amsterdam market many moons ago, and I love it, on a deep dive I found the blow up extra sessions are also the same as Art Pepper and Donald Byrd, like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmW_iRcs3D0

Which features Herbie Hancock.

Any opinions on Eric Andre? I have his latest show and Bad Trip. He's supposed to be funny, but I'm always picky when it comes to comedy.

^ After 15 minutes of his Netflix show, let me answer to myself: not my kind of fun.

You're right: it's hit and miss with comedy. I laugh hard with James Acaster, I don't get Eric Andre. Shit happens.

Southland Tales

Heard Kelly is back on this for good (4K restoration and other goodies), so I revisited it. The Cannes cut, that is, not the theatrical cut. This is by no means a masterpiece, but Kelly was onto something and I've always hoped he could push his vision further. Instead he has pretty much lived in the shadows for a long while.

I enjoyed Gangs of Wasseypur a lot. It is an Indian movie but not the typical Bollywood shit even though it also had music but cool one.
It has a Tarantino vibe mixed with The Godfather.

You Don't Nomi

The Showgirls lover doesn't need this. The others may give it a try to understand how great the film is.

Watched "La Grande Bellezza" this weekend. The small screen did not do it justice, it wold have been beautiful in cinema.

Also "The Invention of Lying", it had a couple of moments. A film that did not have that, but which I watched anyway was "Churchill", do not bother. Watch the other about him, which name escapes me right now. :|

One interesting recent viewing: Barbara by Mathieu Amalric.

I know nothing about the French singer Barbara, but this film sure made me want to dig more.

We watched The Square. A Danish movie. It was bizarre but interesting. Though the action took place in Sweden.
