He says in a comment that it's not at his house, it's at a place he works. I love this guy. He's one of those small town characters that just can't come from anywhere else. Completely isolated from the world and honest about his one true passion: Programming Chuck E. Cheese robots. |

The Passenger - Final Shot
07/31/07, 15:20
From wikipedia . . .
The long final shot:
There were a number of reasons why the shot proved so difficult to accomplish and is so studied by film students. The shot needed to be taken in the evening towards dusk to minimize the light difference between interior and exterior. Since the shot was continuous, it was not possible to adjust the lens aperture at the moment when the camera passed from the room to the square. As such, the scene could only be shot between 5:00 and 7:30 in the evening.
Difficulties were further compounded by atmospheric conditions. The weather in Spain was windy and dusty. For the shot to work, the atmosphere needed to be still to ensure that the movement of the camera would be smooth. Antonioni tried to encase the camera in a sphere to lessen the impact of the wind, but then it couldn't get through the window.
Then there were further technical problems. The camera ran on a ceiling track in the hotel room, and when it emerged outside the window it was picked up by a hook suspended on a giant crane that was nearly thirty metres high. A system of gyroscopes had to be fitted to the camera to mask the change from a smooth track to the less smooth and more mobile crane. The bars on the outside of the window were fitted on hinges. As the camera came up to the bars they were swung away at the same time as the hook of the crane attached itself to the camera as it left the tracks. The whole operation was co-ordinated by Antonioni from a van by means of monitors and microphones to assistants who, in turn, communicated his instructions to the actors and the operators.
In the DVD commentary, Nicholson states that Antonioni constructed the entire hotel entirely so that the final shot could be accomplished. |

Australian Priest Goes Berserk Against Skaters

How do we know this guy is a priest and not just the grounds keeper or something?
Skating on church property is pretty stupid. Skaters are irritating. So are racist doormen. |

Wikipedia:
The story takes place on the desert planet "Plyuk" (pronounced "Plewk") in the "Kin-Dza-Dza" galaxy, where two humans - Uncle Vova and Fiddler - are accidentally stranded due to an alien teleportation device. The movie describes their long quest to find a way back home.
The natives of the planet appear human, with deceptively primitive-looking technology and a barbaric culture, which satirically resembles that of humans. They are telepathic; the only spoken words normally used in their culture are “koo” and “kew”, the latter being a swear word. The society of Plyuk is divided into two categories: Chatlanians and Patsaks. Chatlanians are privileged, and a system of rituals must be followed by the Patsaks to show flattery. The basis of their difference is unexplainable (a source of a humorous episode), and for all practical matters they are distinguished with aid of a small handheld device (visator). |

I searched for this as best as I could before submitting. I could have swore it wasn't a dupe. I know there are similar submissions (the sexist classroom film is a genre unto itself) but couldn't see this one. Oh well. |

I know this is brilliant because their French of the Saunders parody of LOTR was brilliant. Sadly I am disconnected from reality and have neither read any HP books or seen any of the movies.
