Up way too late watching Gun Crazy, but I was compelled in that direction by the previous evenings re-viewing of Asphalt Jungle. I couldn’t help but keep thinking that I was watching a different movie. John Dall has surely been in something familiar. I cannot place what. I guess I could check but instead I’ll just think about how familiar he is.
Dix though, in Asphalt Jungle, coupled with memories of his role in The Killing and possibly the purity of Jack T Ripper, has inspired an urge to find more good ol’ Sterling Hayden rolls. Of course, that all mixed in with the desire to watch all of the Tadanobu Asano films (mainly though, Away With Words), makes for again, all too many movies to try and watch.
Egads… On the just discovered front… I started yesterday with a little John Lee Hooker, as one should. I then went out for the day… Without thinking about it (reasoned due to never having had a problem with it) I left the record low and proud upon the turntable. This morning though, I have now noticed, there is a very large warp on my copy of I’m in the Mood. Frankly, damn. I may have to find another copy of this Up Front classic.
Must get “boom boom”. I am too shocked still to try and see what it sounds like.
Who? What? yes, I feel out of the loop. I have not found out until now of the passing of Basswolf!
Some strange timewarp keeping it hidden until I finally managed to see Wild Zero. Well. I guess that’s for the better.
