Chimpanzees Over Newtown

Five for June and One for May.

The famous frozen horse heads of Guy Maddin's Winnipeg.

0. The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Rejoice. The Embassy Cinema is having one of it’s magical screenings of this iconic film tomorrow Friday 29th of May. Sold out I’m afraid.

1. Terminator: Salvation and  Land of the Lost
Terminator. Really? But unlike last time round, this film is shaping up to be anything other than ordinary. Christian Bale doesn’t do ordinary. For me his inclusion in this film is enough for it to warrant interest. The alternative cinematography techniques are what pushes me over the edge. These two facts aside and there is still what could be a totally decent action film. If we overlook director McG’s history it seems we could be in for something special. Oh, and of course. The rant.

Land of the Lost. I’ve long given up on Will Ferrel, but the trailer for this film got me interested. If it has dinosaurs then it can’t be all bad. But the real reason I’ll take to the cinema for this one is the lovely Anna Friel, who played Chuck on the absurdly brilliant TV show Pushing Daisies. Check out the trailer.

2. My Winnipeg DVD
This is likely to hit New Zealand on June 2nd. I’ve been waiting to get my hands on this favourite film of mine since I saw it at the NZIFF last year. I really can’t get enough Guy Maddin. It’s hard to say what this film is; a pseudo-documentary or docu-fantasia, perhaps a subjective experience or a new kind of film in the vein of Orson Welles’ F For Fake. Also on the way is a My Winnipeg book.

3. The Eels – Hombre Lobo
A new album from my favourite band. I’m hoping for it to hit iTunes NZ on it’s US release 02/06/09.

4. Cafe Scientifique
I missed the last one and I don’t know the subject of this one but they always have me intrigued. The last Thursday of every month at Cafe Reka. 25/06/09.

5. Alan Lee Signing
Famed Tolkien illustrator Alan lee will be signing books at the Weta Cave on Saturday June 20th.

Lovelorn Vintage photo shoot March 2009.

I went a little snap happy with the old digicam, partly due to being the designated driver at Tommy’s 70′s Party.
