My Soft spot...

Leningrad cowboys go to America!
Saturday Night, Sunday Morning- Albert Finney's debut? methinks.

I have other lists of movies I have seen too many times..

Women on the verge of a Nervous Breakdown- love almodovar even if he is mysogynistic. Yo ti quiero Pedrito!

SOY CUBA - best agit-prop film of all time. Same director of Cranes are flying.

RED DESERT- Antonioni

My fave soundtracks-
Angelo Baddalamenti- David Lynch Twin Peaks

I really am not a snob. Hate to say I have good taste because taste is subjective.Which is no excuse for the terrible drivel called musik today.

I have a list of films for smiths fans...
Gay road movie with homocidal HIV characters wearing JOY division and Smiths shirts...Greg something. let you know.
I have an issue from True to You zines lists films where Moz got his 'inspiration ' from. Taste of honey of course...many more..ANgry young men/kitchen sinks...
