I recently watched "Contempt" and "The French Connection" back-to-back. It made a lot of sense.

I watched about ten minutes of Buffalo 66 the other night, and loved it. Has anyone seen The Brown Bunny? I want to see The Brown Bunny, if only for Chloe Sevigny blow job scene.

Buffalo 66 is an incredible film. Very beautifully filmed.

I've been watching for The Brown Bunny - I believe a US release is not yet imminent - but here is a nice clip:

Also, anyone at all in interested in Vincent Gallo and/or analog recording might want to check out this site too (for the pretty pictures):

It seems that you'll be the only two people (other than megalomaniac Gallo) to like this film the Brown Bunny. I'll hold my opinion until I actually see it, but I did like Buffalo '66 and enjoy Gallo's music.

"I got a colonoscopy once and they let me watch it on TV. It was more entertaining than "The Brown Bunny." [in response to Gallo calling Ebert a 'fat pig'] It is true that I am fat. But one day I shall be thin, and he will still be the director of "The Brown Bunny."

Rog has lost his Pillsbury chin...

does everyone on planet earth know that roger ebert wrote the screenplay for russ meyer's "beyond the valley of the dolls" ?

if you see him on the street be sure to remind him how great it is......don't be alarmed if he starts running away from you....

it is truly fabulous! a rock n' freak show extravaganza of a film......a mammarious hybrid of psych-rock and softporn with plot twists galore.......if it plays your local rep theatre definitely GO and see it.....it was shot in cinemascope......

it is out on vhs, and there's a rumour that criterion may special release this from fox sometime in the future......

the carrie nations forever!


this is the end of my celebrate ebert tangent
