RIP Russ Meyer

RIP Russ Meyer 09/22/2004 12:04 PM
Xeni Jardin: Russ Meyer, the filmmaking legend responsible for such sexploitation atrocities masterpieces as " The Immoral Mr. Teas", "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!", and "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls", has passed away at age 82. He lived a long life, full of glamour and boobies. All of us should be so lucky. Fleshbot, naturally, has more: Link. Rest in peace, Mr. Meyer. (thanks also to Caines, Jean-Luc, and others who suggested).

Video mashup of Russ Meyer + Hoodoo
Gurus / Persian Rugs 09/24/2004 11:08 AM
Xeni Jardin: Following up to this week's sad news that sexploitation auteur Russ Meyers has passed away (Link), BoingBoing reader Richard Crepeau says, "Thought I'd spread the word about a Hoodoo Gurus side project called the Persian Rugs. One of their videos uses Russ Meyer clips from Mondo Topless. A nice hybrid between garage rock and camp."

On their website, the band says:

"Music and sex go very well together. For proof, just take a look at the video for the Persian Rugs' new single 'Be A Woman'. The band and director Todd Sheldrick have created the perfect setting for the band's 60's Punk-inspired Primal Rock: strippers and cavemen collide in a 21st Century psychedelic garden of eden. (...) The Rugs got in touch with famed 60's director Russ Meyer, the maker of such films as 'Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!'and Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls' (the latter a direct influence on the Austin Powers movies) and asked for permission to incorporate footage from one of his cult classics, 'Mondo Topless', into their new filmclip. Russ asked to hear the song first, [and] loved it (...)

Link to "Be a Woman" *.asx video in low and hi-res, contains megadoses of kitsch nudity (and shots of vintage '60s electronic equipment). How did those ladies make their humongous breasts do that stuff on rhythm? Weighed down by all that eyeliner, no less?

Fox News review of Fahrenheit 9/11: "a

parties should see without fail"

Fox News review of Fahrenheit 9/11: "a
film that members of all political
parties should see without fail" 06/16/2004 02:01 AM
Will wonders never cease. Roger Friedman reviewed Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11" tonight on Fox News: a really brilliant piece of work, and a film that members of all political parties should see without fail. As much as some might try to marginalize this film as a screed against President George Bush, "F9/11" � as we saw last night � is a tribute to patriotism, to the American sense of duty � and at the same time a indictment of stupidity and avarice.... Before anyone's even seen it, there have been partisan debates over which way Moore may have spun this or that to get a desired effect. But, really, in the end, not seeing "F9/11" would be like allowing your First Amendment rights to be abrogated, no matter whether you're a Republican or a Democrat... On the other hand, there are more than enough moments that seemed to resonate with the huge Ziegfeld audience. The most indelible is Bush's reaction to hearing on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, that the first plane had crashed into the World Trade Center. Bush was reading to a grade-school class in Florida at that moment. Instead of jumping up and leaving, he instead sat in front of the class, with an unfortunate look of confusion, for nearly 11 minutes. Moore obtained the footage from a teacher at the school who videotaped the morning program. There Bush sits, with no access to his advisers, while New York is being viciously attacked. I guarantee you that no one who sees this film forgets this episode. How times have changed. It seems like the establishment is finally wising up to Bush's incompetence. At least I hope so. Or maybe Friedman's body will be found floating in the river tomorrow. I hope not. Via Strangelove....

IPOs for Film 11/19/2003 10:24 PM
Taking it public. Ethan Hawke is looking for investors for his new movie, "Billy Dead". For $8.75 a share of preferred stock (and only in blocks of 100 - ticker symbol "BILLY"), Hawke hopes to raise about US $7.3 Million through his broker, Civilian Capital. According to a consultant with Civilian, potential investors will be able to "invest in a film maker, a story or a star."

Is this ushering in a new golden age of public media ownership, or an age of increased corporate hegemony? Also, for what other artforms would you like to see such investment opportunites? Finally, in what directors/actors/storylines etc. would you like to invest?
