Links for 2004-10-12 [del.icio.us]

  • Film of the Day: Freaky Friday (2003)
    Finally got around to seeing this tonight. Where the hell did Lindsay Lohan come from and how can all that talent appear from such a small person? Who would have though a live action Disney could be that good?
  • "Get out of my mind, get out of this room."
    Rave review for Bruce Nauman's sound piece at Tate Modern with a list of some of the speech which can be heard.
  • Inside the mind of Bruce Nauman
    A more contemplative review, but no less of a rave. Actually made the correspondent emotional and wanting to admit the fact. Amazing.
  • The Real 'Northern Exposure'?
    A teacher from Philly moves to Alaska to teach the indigenous population. 'Etre et Avoir' ensues.
  • French cinemas act to jam mobiles
    "Mobile phone signals will be jammed in French cinemas and theatres to prevent the devices disturbing the audience." According to linked article, Picturehouse who run the cinema's in Liverpool's FACT are in favour, they just need permission. Yes!
  • The trailer for Star Wars: Episode III in text form
    [SPOILER] This is a [SPOILER] Well actually it's not if you've ever seen the Star Wars films and know that you know what happens to thingy. Still an extraordinary way to sell the new film. It's selling the how rather than the what.
  • Froogle UK Beta launches
    Definately early days. Doesn't seem to include the larger online stores like Amazon in the main search. But it might prove useful when it grows up.
  • Le Centre Pompidou Guide du visiteur
    For a small book, it really captures the collection
  • How to Complain
    It's all about empowerment apparently. Vouchers please.
  • Robert Altman interview at The Onion
    The man continues to say a lot in so few words. Amazing.
  • Still 'Smells'
    I Hate Music directs it vitriol against 'Smells Like Teen Spirit'. Still don't know what any of the words are. Prefer the Tori Amis cover version.
  • I think I last had an empty inbox in 1995.
    Sashinka embarasses me. I've 2633 messages in my email inbox, first is date stamped 20/08/2001. But to some extent its as much the story of the last few years for me as the weblog.
  • Franka Potente - die offizielle Fanpage
    Intriguingly designed fan site
