The NEW Joshua Tree - The wave of sorrow



Το Joshua Tree, album που μας συντρόφευε στα μυστικά, μουσικά, προσωπικά μας ταξίδια κυκλοφορεί μετά από 20 χρόνια, με bonus tracks, b-sides, dvd, live εμφανίσεις και συλλεκτικό βινύλιο.

Ο Bono ερμηνεύει ένα αγαπημένο του τραγούδι που δεν υπήρξε ποτέ στο track list του επιτυχή αυτού δίσκου, τραγούδι νιότης και αίσθησης γύρω από πράγματα και καταστάσεις που ζούμε σήμερα ακόμα πιο έντονα...το τραγούδι δεν συμπεριλήφθει στο αλμπουμ λόγω του ότι δεν ήταν έτοιμο. Ο Bono εμπνέεται από την εργασία του στην Αιθιοπία κατά την περίοδο μεγάλων λοιμών...Μας το εξηγεί και τραγουδά για μας:"Το κύμα της θλίψης.."

......


Blessed all of you with an empty heart


For you got nothing from which you cannot part


Blessed is the egoIt's all we got this hour


Blessed is the voice that speaks truth to power


Blessed is the sex worker who sold her body tonight


She used what she gotTo save her children's life


Blessed are you, the deaf cannot hear a scream


Blessed are the stupid who can dream


Blessed are the tin canned cardboard slums


Blessed is the spirit that overcomes

John Alton the maestro of the Film Noir atmosphere

John Alton was an American cinematographer. He made is feature film debut in 1927 with The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg. Alton won an Academy Award for cinematography of An American in Paris, becoming the first Hungarian-born person to win it. Alton is most famous for  films noir style of the classic period . "But when I'd take most any director aside and ask him to sit down with me, he'd look at me as if I were crazy. He'd say, 'I've never sat down with a cameraman to talk about these things. What do you mean? You just pump a lot of light in!' I'd say 'You don't 'pump' light into a scene. That light has to tell something. There's a meaning, and it establishes a mood.' That was the difference between my pictures and some of the others: [in mine], each mood was different. The mood had to be done with lighting. That's my profession — not the lighting and how to light, but bringing out the mood."  ...

Blood Simple 1984

“But what I know about is Texas, and down here...  you’re on your own…”  "Blood Simple" is  an extremely enjoyable and good quality movie . It is the first film of Coen brothers and it is included in the category of Neo Noir films. The film's title  derives from the Dashiell Hammett novel Red Harvest (1929) , in which the term "blood simple" describes the addled, fearful mind-set of people after prolonged immersion in violent situations. Μany argue that the film is included in the category of horror films. But even if it has one of the most disturbing nightmare scenes I have ever watched,  the film is far from this category. Julian Marty is the owner (Dan Hedaya) of a seedy small-town Texas bar who discovers that one of his employees, Ray ( John Getz ), is having an affair with his wife Abby (Frances McDormand). Everything is determined by the thirst for revenge and money.  The demonic detective ( Michael Emmet Walsh ) who undertakes ...
