sovay: (Jeff Hartnett)
I am watching a lot of movies I don't have the energy to write about. I am in a severe state of wanting to fire my body into the sun. Have some links.

1. Courtesy of [personal profile] rushthatspeaks: Bela Lugosi sculpting his own bust.

2. A non-comic, very good use of Operation Mincemeat in a poem: Dan Johnson, "Between the Wars."

3. Klaus Nomi's recipe for lime tarts. I had no idea about his day job.

4. If you have always wanted an Arthurian Arsenic and Old Lace, then look no further: "Mordred comes back, on the lam, with his unhappy girlfriend, La Belle Dame Sans Merci. She tried to change his face to make him less recognizable but was drunk on fairy wine and made him look like Prince Maleagant, specifically from Act 2 of the French musical where his face is partially a skull."

5. Ditto, but it's a Gef T-shirt. For the extra extra clever mongoose in your life.

I don't know how much I want to see the movie, but I love the description of Kate Dickie in Shepherd (2021): "a one-eyed ferry operator who keeps a stuffed crow on her boat." I hoped the film could spell psychopomp. I was even happier when I found a picture of her. She could play Greer Gilman's Brock.
