Rumble Fish

In this deeply personal tale of estrangement and reconciliation between two rebellious brothers, set in a dreamlike and timeless Tulsa, Francis Ford Coppola gives mythic dimensions to intimate, painful emotions. The director’s “art film for teenagers” was his second adaptation of young-adult novelist S. E. Hinton’s work in a single year, after the more classically styled The Outsiders. Graced with a remarkable cast headed by Matt Dillon, Mickey Rourke, and Diane Lane; haunting black-and-white visuals that hark back to German expressionism and forward to Coppola’s own Tetro; and a powerful percussive score by Stewart Copeland that underlines the movie’s romantic fatalism, Rumble Fish pulsates throughout with genuine love and dread.

Wall of Voodoo, “Call of the West” 1982

#WallOfVoodoo cultivated an air of mystery - their album covers, their very name! - and the subject matter of their songs, #StanRidgway's arch vocals, the music itself were always a little offbeat and angular in a way that made it easy for them to ride the #NewWave to us, via #EnnioMorricone #SpaghettiWestern.

This album was their commercial peak. I was going to feature a track you're less likely to have heard, but in the end had to go with "Mexican Radio." How could I resist the couplet “I wish I was in Tijuana/Eating barbecued iguana”?

Another favorite of mine is their oddly compelling cover of "Ring of Fire" from their debut eponymous ep. You may have also heard frontman and artistic lead Ridgway on "Don't Box Me In" from #StewartCopeland's soundtrack for the film adaptation of #SEHinton's Rumblefish, and he continues to release solo music via #bandcamp.

Recognizing Female Genius by Dr. Rosanne Welch

I was doing editor rewrites on a chapter titled "Dorothy Parker: The Creative Genius Behind Film Franchise A STAR IS BORN." To the note asking me to consider a "less hagiographic title," I said "No".

Recognizing Female Genius by Dr. Rosanne Welch – On Screenwriting and Media with Dr. Rosanne Welch

Two more line jumpers. The first is because well, we have picky eaters. Some good suggestions in here, recommended if you to have a picky eater. The second because my middle schooler is reading it as an assignment and I thought it would be good to read along with him. I have seen the movie before, but never read the book. #bookstodon #outsiders #sehinton
While I seem to be making a lot of progress, the actual pile is not diminishing, in fact it’s gotten taller. Still plenty of time left.
