Finsterrae is the film that is the image of SONAR 2010. It’s a movie about two hiking ghosts. Looks fab.

What a crazy/brilliant idea this is:
“A journalist with no scruples, a spastic, and a comedian travel to North Korea with a mission - to challenge the conditions of the smile in one of the world’s most notorious regimes. The Red Chapel chronicles the amusing and often bizarre encounters between this Danish theatre troupe and their North Korean hosts in a one of a kind, East-meets-West-meets-East look at cultural exchange in the modern world’s last anti-globalist bastion.”

Our day will come, if I’m correct. Don’t know what the movie is about, but director Romain Gavras (Born Free and Stress) will always be in for a surprise. And with actor Vincent Cassel it just has to be good. Just go and see.

“To Have & To Hold is a ‘musicmentory’ to celebrate the age of vinyl records…including interviews, fresh graphics and good music. Directed by Jony Lyle for Goosepimple Productions 2010″
Go and see that one young people, so that old and wise grandpa Vinyl never may be forgotten… Relase date still unknown, but you can follow them on Facebook.

That’s probably what he’s going to say at The Academy Awards tonight when he recieves his Oscar for the best supporting role… Long time since I saw somebody play a character so well…
District 9 is a movie directed by South African Neil Blomkamp and produced by Peter “L.o.t.R.” Jackson that handles about a group of aliens, who stranded on earth against their will. Fast, smart and very unexpectedly good. Make sure you go and see that one.
A short movie by Spike Jonze in collaboration with Absolut Vodka. A true robot love story. Premieres at the Sundance film festival. Go and see that one.
The Black Gestapo: a 1 star movie from 1975 you better go and see… Sounds just like an all black dart team. Also eyebrow raising. It sure delivers nice images though.
Stumbled upon this scene from one of my favorite youth movies: Airplane! The movie was directed by the Zucker brothers, and it was a kick off for more movies with the same kind of humor, like Top Secret and later the Police Squad and Naked Gun series. For the youngsters among us: Go and see!
Note: the pilot on the left who plays Roger is in fact Kareem Abdul Jabbar, one of the best NBA basketball players of all time. He was, together with Magic Johnson (you know, the one with aids), very succesful for the LA Lakers in the late 80’s, early 90’s. Also Kareem played another bizarre character, who had to fight the legendary Bruce Lee in Game of Death, another favorite youth movie of mine. Also go and see that one peeps!
This spring a documentary is coming out about the influential Swiss designer Herbert Matter (1907-1948). Above a clip of the road through literally hundereds of sketches before he got to the final logo for the New Haven Railroad company.

If you read our previous blogpost about Iceland and its heroe Jon Pall Sigmarsson, and you didn’t grow up in the 80ies, go and see this documentary about the world strongest man of all time. As stated below, we couldn’t find his grave but we at least did something to honour the man.
(Thanks Justin!)
A documentary about a photo of a man jumping from the twin towers during 9/11. The film is a quest to identify the person on the picture. Heavy stuff but a must to see.
Never heard about this movie until today. Have not much of an idea where the movie is about the trailer surely grabbed me.
(Thanks KRD!)
In the early 1990’s a loose-knit group of likeminded outsiders found common ground at a little NYC storefront gallery. Rooted in the DIY (do-it-yourself) subcultures of skateboarding, surf, punk, hip hop & graffiti, they made art that reflected the lifestyles they led. Developing their craft with almost no influence from the “establishment” art world, this group, and the subcultures they sprang from, have now become a movement that has been transforming pop culture.
Starring a selection of artists who are considered leaders within this culture, Beautiful Losers focuses on the telling of personal stories. It speaks to themes of what happens when the outside becomes “in” as it explores the creative ethos connecting these artists and today’s youth”
With quite some famous artists like Harmony Korine, Ed templeton and Shepard Fairey. More here.
What a killer name for a movie. And what about that concept?
Faaaan-There’s something big out there-tastic.
Life’s not always fun. That proves ‘The Bridge’, a breathtaking documentary about The Golden Gate Bridge in San Fransisco. Just watch the first choking minutes of this docu to the end and you’ll see why.

The latest hype in quick spreading online guerrilla media is without a doubt Zeitgeist. These mystical documentaries claim telling the truth about Christianity, 9/11 and the world banking system. Once you start watching you can’t stop, due to the atmospheric voices, images and sound. And ofcourse it smells like conspiracy big time but the arguments they bring up really made us think.

It’s not nice to fool with Mother Nature… it can be HORRIFYING! A Scientist, played by good old Donald Pleasence, experiments with plants en humans. Horror form the seventies.
