Celebrity crushes past and present: John Lynch.
I used to sit through The Secret Garden just waiting for his sporadic appearances.
Whirling dervishes have always fascinated me. Parajanov features them in “The Taste of Pomegranates”, and this image is from Baraka, which is just gorgeous throughout but this is my favorite sequence.
Mads Mikkelsen in Valhallah Rising.
This counts for both “fantastic movie” and “Celebrity Crushes Past and Present”.
He does have a very strange habit of playing characters with only one functioning eye though. It’s a little odd.
One more Killing Joke. Because Jaz Coleman is like potato chips. Really fucking angry potato chips.
808 State would be fantastic enough… but 808 State with a vocal by Mike Doughty? BEFORE he got clean? Hell Fuck Yeah.
The trouble is a single atom shot at random
random fire two particles fused and coupled
once united multiply the waves run underground
electric power copper wire
some tiny evil bursts the surface
lays quiet like insecticide
Slanted, the eyes and this bonds mind to mind
the risk is mine and this bonds mind to mind
She says a word across the ocean
I hear the spit I hear the sigh
the wavelength - undivided
to drain the fruit and leave the rind
the shot runs through her wiring - through her curve - through her spine
to feel an impulse rising rising
a mess of reason and kissing eyes.
