Flesh

After my recent blog about missing an album from the 70's I had lots of helpful suggestions about where to find it. Not only that, someone actually sent me MP3s of the two tracks I missed most. I was surprised at this, and grateful.

Am now wondering about new career of writing blogs asking people to send me stuff. I can see some possibilities here.

I watched parts of Flesh and Heat, two Andy Warhol films. Although investigation reveals that they weren't actually directed by Warhol, but by Paul Morrissey. I found them to be some of the dullest, most boring films I've ever attempted to sit through. Why anyone likes them is beyond me. Possibly I'm missing something. After all, I'm not a fan of art-house cinema. My favourite movies are Clueless and Ghost World, and I hold Miss Congeniality in high regard.

Flesh and Heat both star Joe Dallesandro. I can see he was an attractive guy, and he spends a lot of time wandering around naked on screen, but is this enough? I mean, would I be prepared to sit through a really tedious film just because it was full of attractive naked women?

* yes of course *

Well, there you have it. I rest my case.

  1. I think you may be on to something with this blog begging. I'm off to ask for some new shoes and some of those nice chocolates from Marks and Spencers!
