Crowley The Movie

Note to all: the above is a magick sigil to bring about the desired result of a quality film recreating Crowleys life. 

Shamans of the Amazon

Certainly the most powerful film I've seen in years, Shamans of the Amazon is an important exploration into our connection with the earth and the innate humanity of the individual in society.  In short, a must view: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHVS2GLELJw

You can find out more about the film at http://www.shamansoftheamazon.com

Be sure to tell your friends about it.

UPDATE May 22nd: I have learned that the above link was a pirated version of Shamans of the Amazon.  I have gone ahead and notified Dean of another site that was posting his film without his permission.  If you have seen this film I suggest you make a donation to any of the organizations listed in his bio.  That is the way you can truly continue to support what this film represents. I will go so far as to say that such is the runer way.

the greater circulation, a film by antero alli

last night i had the pleasure of viewing the greater circulation by antero alli.  the film is an initiation based on the work of a parisian poet, rainer maria rilke and his 'requiem for a friend,' a poem that explores the gamut of changes that occur in the living touched by the ghost of a beloved who had died in childbirth.   

the film itself is notable for the interweaving of the entire text of the lyre into the storyline.  however much i hate the term supernatural, the effect of the film on the mind and emotions is very similar as i watched the repartee with sorrow and death over the head of sanity.  some of the ecstatic states rilke describes in his visions echos that of a conversation with his guardian angel. angels are an archetype that repeats at least a half dozen times.  antero mentioned after the screening that the angels evoke many things, from benevolence, infallibility, bleeding, and death.  it is only a matter of degree of feeling when the liminal voice over of the film strikes your self hovering over its requiem. 

imbued with these values and still recovering from this trauma is a moral of will that will not be lost by anyone with the intention and desire to see this film, the greater circulation.  at times ecstatic, other times, saddening, i left the viewing in a contemplative state of mind and strong desire to know more of rilke and his work. 

currently on a six city tour, www.verticalpool.com has more information about the viewings.

documentary proposal: the stock market

script the film from the same kind of perspective as noam chomskys the corporation.

king kong

theres been a lot of hoopla about the latest king kong: you wont see that here.  the 1933 film was a _great_ film: get a new script.  as though the 1976 version wasn't bad enough, we get another one in 2005. for those uninitiated, the film is an allegory for black folks (kong) taken from there home and put in chains (slavery), to break free (equal rights), fall in love with an archetypal white women (representing the compassionate side of the otherwise brutal and profane white male culture), the beauty and the beast tradgedy ending when the beast is killed by overpowering mechanical forces (the force of technology, justice, and it's imperfect execution) for culturally-based incompatibilities like what happening in australia right now), and in death revered for being the cultural scape goat that was really cherished after all (the role black folks have been portrayed in popular american culture).  in allegory stories are more powerful than when said literally, and that my friends is what is fueling the success of this saga as a living testament of what is happening in western culture.  a real ape would of torn the women apart and thrown dung at the airplanes sending them crashing to the ground.  and yes, this version of the movie would be much more entertaining, peter jackson: eat your heart out :-)

the da vinci code movie (trailer review)

my opinion: a resurgence of shallow interest in occult gnostic subjects will stem from this film (as always happens at such times).  people will think they know the answers from watching the film.  the trailer looks a bit passe (notice the sinister looking corporate sigil in the beginning, inaccurate ritual murder (one never carves the pentagram single point up on ones victims! come on producers, do some research!) Ohh the cons-piracy!).  the only redeeming feature of the film appears to be audrey tautou (who is rune logix certified: hot stuff).
