"He who does not at some time, with definite determination consent to the terribleness of life, or even exalt in it, never takes possession of the inexpressible fullness of the power of our existence." -- Rilke




Love,
        the powering,
                the Widening,
                light
                unraveling
                all faces followers of


                All colors, beams of
                woven thread,
                the Skin


                alight that
                warms itself
                with life.


-- Akhenaton, "Hymn to the Sun"

Non-profit pharmacy opens in Cincinnati's Over-the-Rhine neighborhood

Not so much about prices -- as the article says, pharmacies don't make money off prescriptions -- but rather providing access to a pharmacy in a place without one, for the poorest residents of the city.

Australian online movie zine Rouge (definitely cinephile-oriented) [Chicago Reader's film blog, itself a good resource for same]
I’ve been told by [Indian director Ritwik] Ghatak’s son Ritaban that none of his father’s films employ direct sound and that all of them, by technical necessity, are post-dubbed. But this latter fact only emphasises the degree to which Ghatak’s soundtracks are composed, and what I find most striking about his highly unorthodox methods of sound composition are the ways that they essentially ‘rethink’ the dramaturgy of the visuals, and affect the ways that we look at these visuals by drawing our attention towards certain details and away from certain others.

This principle is facilitated by the way that Ghatak seems to compose both his visual mise en sc⇅ and his aural mise en sc⇅ in discrete layers. He frequently employs deep focus cinematography, permitting a certain counterpoint between background and foreground details that on occasion reminds me of the early films of Orson Welles. [Jonathan Rosenbaum]

A clutch of modern pagans honored Zeus at a 1,800-year-old temple in the heart of Athens on Sunday -- the first known ceremony of its kind held there since the ancient Greek religion was outlawed by the Roman Empire in the fourth century

For some reason this cheers me.

"The old film culture was based on hierarchical assumptions about taste and quality that have all but vanished, replaced by niches and networks of fans. You like your Romanian hospital movie, I like my Asian horror, and we have our Web sites and DVD rental queues to keep us happy; everything’s cool. And maybe, in these circumstances, no movie is really foreign. Or maybe every movie is."

A O Scott on the parallel but rarely overlapping worlds of american theatregoers and the world's cinephiles [link] [NYT registration pass in left column]

Of course part of the reason American cinephiles don't go to theatres much is that DVDs and the big new TVs look so damn good. But movies which "demand close attention and serious reflection rather than passive absorption" have never been in high demand in the US, or anywhere else.

A pretty good week for TCM, at least for my taste: Anthony Mann's period noir The Black Book (aka Reign of Terror)(Monday 2:30AM); Richard Wallace's Framed, with Glenn Ford & Barry Sullivan (Tuesday 8:30AM); an odd-sounding little comedy with Joan Blondell & George Brent called The Corpse Came C.O.D. (Tuesday 10:AM); an early Jean Arthur vehicle Party Wire, part of a month-long tribute (Tuesday 9:15PM); but the 2 essentials are Fritz Lang's Human Desire, a re-tooling of Renoir's La bete humaine with Glenn Ford, Gloria Grahame & Broderick Crawford (Monday 2:00PM) and Billy Wilder's corrosive satire of media vampirism Ace in the Hole (aka The Big Carnival) (Wednesday Thursday 12:30AM)

None of the above except The Black Book are on disc or tape as far as I know.

All times are AZ time, which corresponds to MST right now (we don't observe DST here except on the Navaho rez).

ADDENDUM: whoops Ace in the Hole is on tonight, not last night.

R.I.P. Carlo Ponti

Among many other films, he produced Godard's Contempt & A Woman Is a Woman, Antonioni's Zabriskie Point, Blow-Up & The Passenger, Vardas' Cleo from 5 to 7 & Elio Petri's The 10th Victim.

Someone please tell me why the Daria series isn't on disc, save for the Is It Fall Yet? extended episode?

Easily the best thing that MTV ever produced, and a unique classic.

I also had a weak spot for the Downtown series: though it's not in the same class, it shared some of the same creative team as Daria.

George Clooney may produce a mini-series version of Neal Stephenson's The Diamond Age for Sci-Fi

The last book by Stephenson I got through, I'm afraid.

Who knows, might be good.

Huge hole as subway station collapses in Sao Paulo, but an even bigger one as Robert Anton Wilson leaves the physical plane -- on my birthday, no less
