Valentino: The Last Emperor
Posted in: Documentary, fashion, Film, Gallery, Valentino Garavani
I guess I sorta slept on this past festival season so I might be behind on this one– but it looks like a must see.
“Valentino: The Last Emperor is a feature-length film on the legendary designer Valentino Garavani in the wake of his exit in 2008 from the company he founded in Rome more than 45 years ago. Produced and directed by Matt Tyrnauer, Special Correspondent for Vanity Fair magazine, the film is an intimate, engaging and very funny fly-on-the-wall exploration of the singular world of one of Italy’s richest and most famous men. The film documents the colorful and dramatic closing act of Valentino’s celebrated career, tells the story of his extraordinary life and work, and also explores the larger themes affecting the fashion business today. But at the heart of the film is the unique relationship between Valentino and his business partner and companion of 50 years, Giancarlo Giammetti.”

Posted in: Doki, Friend, Gallery, Music, Pocky, Shima, Wong Kar WaiNot really sure how to classify this percussive amalgamation from London based Friend, but I hope it signifies the ushering in of more music that makes me yearn for cherry blossom lined streets and Pocky. “Doki” is from Friend’s debut EP “Shima”.

Midnight Blue
Posted in: Al Goldstein, Gallery, Midnight Blue, new york, R. Crumb, Sean Penn, TelevisionAll this talk of NY’s inevitable return to 70s / early 90s -style economic gloom – with the only difference being the rubble of the former is replaced by the empty glass condos of the latter – reminded us of Al Goldstein’s infamous cable access show, Midnight Blue. Interviews with R. Crumb, restaurant reviews, his feelings about Sean Penn; just some of the glorious moments that serve to remind us of a time when d-bags like Al Goldstein could smoke a cigar in front of the Wall Street Bull while wearing a rattlesnake vest and make it feel like great tv. Videos are after the jump.

Posted in: GallerySwiss photographer Yann Gross documented an East African skate park and really captured the attitude of its Ugandan skaters. The whole a-picture-is-worth-a-thousand-words thing is true so I’ll shut up.
