Constantly Talking Isn't Necessarily Communicating
Sums up the entire blogosphere, doesn't it?
That's an illustration by Tomer Hanuka for Priemer magazine. It's of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, probably one of the best films I've seen in a long time. Anyone who has seen a movie written by Charlie Kaufman or a music video directed by Michel Gondry knew these guys had talent, but Eternal feels like both were at the top of their game. I can't imagine a film being more powerful and being more wondorus as well.
If you missed it in theaters the film is coming to DVD Sept. 28 with commentary by Kaufman and Gondry, Deleted Scenes, documentaries and a video by The Polyphonic Spree directed by Gondry (it's great). Hell, while we're on the subjects of DVDs I recomend the collection of Gondry music videos and the 2nd greatest Kaufman movie, Adaptation. There's meant to be a Special Edition of Adaptation coming out, but no dates have been announced.
Thanks to Mick at Being Charlie Kaufman for all the info.
While on the subject of cartoonists appearing in magazines, the latest edition of ARTnews magazines has a cover feature on one of the greatest cartoonists of all time, R. Crumb. The article details the art world's embrace of Crumb. As you might guess he's pessimistic about it. It's still a pretty good article on Crumb, but nothing new to fans of the man's work. The cover is beautiful, though.
