DIRTY WEEKEND (Mordi e Fuggi/Rapt l'Italienne)
a film by Dino Risi

A film selected by Marko Lulic in conjunction with the current
exhibition Marko Lulic: Modernity in YU

At Anthology Film Archives
Tuesday December 20, 2005
7.30 pm
Anthology Film Archives
32 Second Avenue (at Second Street)
New York, NY

Dirty Weekend is the last of three films Marko Lulic selected to be
shown at Anthology Film Archives this Fall. The November film
Themroc was a stunning success. And Dirty Weekend promises more
absurd, spectacular fun.

The story is about three anarchists Fabrizio, Raul and Silvia who
take an industrialist and his mistress hostage. In exchange for
their hostages they demand a plane and money. While waiting for
their ransom, the anarchists hide out in a villa that belongs to a
retired general. The industrialist reveals himself as a coward, and
is willing to make any compromise to save his life. His mistress
quickly becomes disenchanted by her industrialist lover, and falls
in love with the very charming Fabrizio.

Starring Marcello Mastroianni and Oliver Reed
105 min / color / 1973
A joint French and Italian production

Tickets are $5 for the general public, and free for Anthology and
Storefront members

"Affiliates of terrorist organization Hezbollah cloned the mobiles of senior executives of Canadian operator Rogers Communications....":
"They were cloning the senior executives repeatedly, because everyone was afraid to cut off Ted Rogers' phone," Hopper told Gefen, in an interview that recognised the cleverness of the social engineering trick. "They were using actually a pretty brilliant psychology. Nobody wants to cut off Ted Rogers' phone or any people that are directly under Ted Rogers, so they took their scanners to our building... Nobody wants to shut off Ted. Even if he is calling Iran, Syria, Lebanon, and Kuwait."
Pretty clever.

Scott Lipscomb, Iraq Body Count US spokesperson on the number of Iraqi civilian casualities since the war was launched. "about 30,000." lipscomb believes it was scripted not unscripted as touted based on the framing of the question to coincide with his websites way of compiling numbers. and bush never goes off script, except when he does and it goes very badly. on leonard lopate today. isnt that cheating?

has woody made a movie that people might actually want to see?
"In Thursday’s post I mentioned that my first big Olduvai entry would be a visual history of Proboscideans in North America. In looking over what I was getting myself into, I of course discovered that there was no way I could draw and “colorize” (at least – more if you subdivide Gomphotherium at all) 15 different genera spanning 14+ million years of elephantness. Next time I review and research first, open mouth later."
