Bob Dylan: 17 & 22
In the early nineteen-sixties, the photographer Barry Feinstein asked his friend Bob Dylan to write some text to accompany a series of pictures of Hollywood. The result of their collaboration, rejected by a publisher at the time, will appear in November 2009.

after crashin the sportscar
into the chandelier
i ran out t the phone booth
made a call t my wife. she wasnt home.
i panicked. i called up my best friend
but the line was busy
then i went t a party but couldnt find a chair
somebody wiped their feet on me
so i decided t leave
i felt awful. my mouth was puckered.
arms were stickin thru my neck
my stomach was stuffed an bloated
dogs licked my face
people stared at me an said
“what’s wrong with you?”
passin two successful friends of mine
i stopped t talk.
they knew i was feelin bad
an gave me some pills
i went home an began writin
a suicide note
it was then that i saw
that crowd comin down
the street
i really have nothing
against
marlon brando

death silenced her pool
the day she died
hovered over
her little toy dogs
but left no trace
of itself
at her
funeral
Kraftwerk and the Electronic Revolution (2008)
An in-depth look at the history of the krautrock scene, including the most successful band Kraftwerk.
Wonderfully extensive and indeed in-depth look at electronic side of 70's Krautrock.
Lost Horizon (1937)
A plane crash delivers a group of people to the secluded land of Shangri-La -- but is it the miraculous utopia it appears to be?
Big budget over-the-top fantasy, still entertaining after all these years despite the naive utopism.
