“Well, it would be a crowded world if we didn’t have death to re-arrange the scenery.”
/ Kenneth Anger interviewed by Purple Magazine in 2018 /
Funny how shocking it feels to type the words “His Satanic Majesty Kenneth Anger (3 February 1927 – 24 May 2023) has died”.  (Sprueth Magers Gallery announced his death earlier today via Twitter). The pioneering experimental underground filmmaker, author and occultist was, after all, 96 years old! I always assumed whatever pact Anger made with the devil invested him with immortality (or that he’d at least reach 100). Repeatedly seeing Anger’s homoerotic masterpieces like Scorpio Rising (1964) and Kustom Kar Kommandos (1965) at an impressionable age (often at the much-missed Scala Cinema in London) made a profound impact on me, and his two salacious wildly irresponsible volumes of Hollywood Babylon are like sacred religious texts! What a total original Kenneth Anger was. His art will live forever. Pictured: portrait of Anger in his youth in the 1950s by Edmund Teske.

"Voy a quedarme aquí todo el tiempo que haga falta. Estoy esperando la casualidad de mi vida, la más grande, y eso que las he tenido de muchas clases".
Porque, a veces, las mayores historias de amor son las que nunca llegan a serlo...
Los amantes del círculo polar (1998)

Mast Mein Rehne Ka (2023)
A man chooses an old widower's home for his first robbery, kicking off a set of events that have them both look at life in a new way and with new companions in the starkness of the city of Mumbai.
An original, heart felt, thought provoking and simple story about getting old, friendships, lost opportunities and struggle to survive. I absolutely loved it. It is certainly original and these days when it is hard to come across something new, this must be commended. The two leads, as usual, are great but I was very impressed by Abhishek Chauhan and Monika Panwar. I hope I see more work by them in the future. They were very good in their role.
I highly recommend this if you are looking for something original, authentic and has a heartfelt message. It is on Amazon Prime.

To my eternal shame, I failed to commemorate the seventy-first birthday of exquisite Italian-born supermodel-turned mercurial and intense actress turned animal behaviour authority Isabella Rossellini (née Isabella Fiorella Elettra Giovanna Rossellini, 18 June 1952) yesterday. Among the many achievements of the daughter of actress Ingrid Bergman and director Roberto Rossellini: she remains the definitive spokeswoman for Lancôme cosmetics and maverick filmmaker David Lynch’s single greatest muse. Her performance as tormented sadomasochistic nightclub chanteuse Dorothy Vallens in Lynch’s 1986 masterpiece Blue Velvet alone ensures Rossellini cinematic immortality. Pictured: Rossellini photographed at the Cannes Film Festival by Jean-Christian Bourcart, 1990.

Art cinemas are missing a trick. Do a Saturday afternoon double feature of “High School Musical” and “The Iron Claw.”
