Welcome to the maiden voyage of my blog. Previous voyages, lasting several days to a pathetic few hours, sadly had to be jettisoned for more important commitments. The mandate and mission of this blog is clear and present: a one year mission to document anything things film: DVDs, Netflix, Greencine, the New York City film community, film collectibles, Luke's missing hand which has purportedly been found by the staff of certain death star, film festivals, Turner Classic Movies, in short all things fine and film.
In the coming days, I will post comments on "Tears of the Black Tiger," a dizzying exercise in invasive genre transplanting. This movie was release in 2000 but was only recently commerically distributed and released on DVD in the land of the bountiful harvest. The story on the partyline is the Weinsteins held American distribution rights but shelved the movie until last year. "Tears of the Black Tiger," along with another movie I've waited years to watch, "Three Crowns of the Sailor" by Raoul Ruiz, will be this week's viewing. Now the unbearable question of which wine to choose with each movie ... a nice merlot for Tears and Ruiz deserves champange...
