El JFW! I like how when it snows, the ground is white and the skies are usually overcast; so at night all the lights are reflected and it looks a pretty white! | |

@Artie, you nailed it. Track #3 will confirm. Big bear hug (with head turned) to you, LJFW @kat330 I will be hitting the ginger tea as soon as I'm off. It hurts my throat a little, but it hurts so good. @Aurélie My dear wife will be in your time zone for the next two weeks. She flies to Sydney tomorrow. Then heads to Adelaide and then on to Melbourne. |

@Doug O Nice, please tell her to take the opportunity to watch some contemporary Autsralian Movies there is a very interesting new wave of australians filmmakers (like "Animal Kingdom") + Dont know if there are some music festival, there was one last month :') | |

Tue. 11/27/12 6:16pm
Philo Gristle:
Love the groove. This beat insists I do more rhythmic chewing than necessary, thus slow to finnish the salad. Ginger tea sounds good! | |

Tue. 11/27/12 6:17pm
kat330:
Ginger is a perfect root route to take for most anything that ails. So tasty, too! | |

We saw Animal Kingdom when it came out on dvd here, maybe a year ago. Well worth a look. | |

I'd add (though NOT contemporary) "Rabbit Proof Fence" and Roeg's extraordinary "Walkabout." | |

@Philo Gristle: There is a big Australian Production founded by the Edgerton Brothers & David Michod called "Blue Tongue" they release long-feature & shortflms, very great/raw sutff @Katt330: I ADORE Walkabout, it's amazing that's not a well-known movie around the Pacific | |

Or my fave, the pickled ginger served with sushi. Mmmmmm. I always try to cajole an extra serving. :) | |

@Katt330: I plan to organize a projection of "Walkabout" at The Tjibaou Cultural Center next year. Hope it's gonna rock the caledonian audience :') @Doug: Your programmation is FANTASTIC ! | |

@Aurélie: Sounds terrific! The Criterion edition? That's what we have. Scene from our Southern Indiana window: A nearly if not entirely full moon, big, bright and beautiful! | |
|
Tue. 11/27/12 6:26pm
Matt from Springfield:
@kat: What is that called? I wonder if you can buy that at the store! @Aurélie: Keep on rockin' the New Caledonian audience! | |
|
Tue. 11/27/12 6:27pm
kat330:
@Matt: AFAIK it's just pickled ginger and, yes, we have purchased it in jars. | |
|
Tue. 11/27/12 6:30pm
Philo Gristle:
I wish we had more access to current Aussie cinema; it seems like there are just a few films easily available every year. We did see ROGUE last year, but it requires interest in giant killer crocodiles. Great music, gorgeous scenery, and a tight b-movie plot. No Walkabout, but then again, what is... | |
|
Tue. 11/27/12 6:30pm
ndbob:
unfortunately the scene from my window is the gas station across the street | |
|
Tue. 11/27/12 6:31pm
Aurélie:
@Katt330: I wish, but there is no French subtitles in the Criterion edition and New-Caledonians are not that good in "English" hahahaha even if we're surrounded by the Commonwealth @Matt + Kat + Philo: If any of you are interested in NZ Films, there is a really great book about it realeased last year I think http://www.tepapa.govt.nz/TePapaPress/FullCatalogue/History/Pages/NewZealandFilmAnIllustratedHistory.aspx | |

Tue. 11/27/12 6:31pm
Matt from Springfield:
Oh, "Walkabout"! Along with Jamie Uys' "Lost In The Desert" and a few others, seemed to form an early 70s microgenre of kids lost in the desert! | |

Tue. 11/27/12 6:32pm

We were both surprised by "Rogue." Right, no Roeg, but still absorbing in the cinematography of that part of Australia coupled with the soundtrack, which was sort of haunting. | |

@Katt The soudntrack for "Walkabout" is such a masterpiece @Philo: I'm reading this book with an essay written by Vincent Wart/John O'Shea/Mereat Mita, I believe this book is more cheap but more old http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/Record/1539458 | |
