Talking Heads Live In Rome, 1980 (Full Concert)
This is perfect if you have 3 designs due in the morning, but you need some awesome, not at all distracting live tunes


Stop Making Sense may have the Big Suit, but if you’re looking for the pinnacle of live Talking Heads footage, I’d point you in the direction of this unbelievable show from Rome, 1980. Completing the Heads’ journey from minimalist to maximalist, it features the expanded, ten-piece lineup blazing through tunes from the just-released masterwork Remain In Light, as well as dynamically re-inventing choice selections from the back catalogue. They still sound like the band of the future more than 30 years later, with careening polyrhythms, interstellar Adrian Belew guitar-work, and P-Funk grooves courtesy of Bernie Worrell. Once in a lifetime, indeed.

Paolo Sorrentino’s looks to be in Terrence Malick mode in his new trailer for La Grande Bellezza. Maybe he’s slowing down after Il Divo and This Must Be the Place, but I doubt it…

Only in Italy right?

This had better be real, I’m really sick of internet lies.
I know of one person that will never lie to me.

I’d love to get my hands on this new book from Rizzoli, Cinelli: The Art and Design of the Bicycle

Just prior to the release of Rizzoli’s “Cinelli: The Art and Design of the Bicycle” last October, Antonio Colombo sat for a rare interview on the occasion of the Milan edition of the 2012 Bicycle Film Festival. As the president of Cinelli since Columbus tubing bought it in 1978, Colombo has overseen the continued growth of Cino Cinelli’s eponymous company—founded in 1948, upon his retirement from the pro race circuit—through the contemporary cycling boom.

Dillinger is Dead 1969


In this magnificently inscrutable late-sixties masterpiece, Marco Ferreri, one of European cinema’s most idiosyncratic auteurs, takes us through the looking glass to one seemingly routine night in the life of an Italian gas mask designer, played by Michel Piccoli.

This is one of Sight and Sound’s film of the months… I think it looks like it might owe something to Roman Coppola’s underrated CQ

Peter Strickland, the director of Katalin Varga, returns with a very different tale with Berberian Sound Studio. Set in 1976, Toby Jones plays a documentary sound engineer who finds himself employed by a notorious low-budget Italian horror studio. Uneasy in his new environment and surrounded by a world he finds alien, he throws himself into his work, failing to notice how life is slowly beginning to imitate art. An homage to the classic Italian Giallos of the period, Strickland’s film is another triumph.

In October 1971 Pink Floyd performed a concert for no one at Pompeii.
This is the 2003 directors cut, it’s pretty darn cinematic.
