Another Month, Another Film Fest
It's been only days since we posted a note about a local film fest, but there's no complaining about the bounty of free movie opportunities breaking out in town. This time, we note the Euclid Record Film Festival in February, a second-annual deal that's taking place at the shop, 601 East Lockwood, on Tuesdays-Fridays and Mondays at the Halo Bar, 6161 Delmar.
Films I've seen worth seeing again: "Dig!" Friday, Feb. 10, an amazing tale of excess and madness, featuring the Dandy Warhols and the Brian Jonestown Massacre (and I don't care what anyone says, the Dandys are the better band); and "Stan Kann: The Happiest Man in the World," Feb. 28, Mike Steinberg's delightful bio-pic on the legendary Fox organist.
Films I've seen that I'd rather not again: "The Rutles," Feb. 1, a mockumentary that proves good talents and a good idea do not necessarily a good film make; and "True Stories," Feb. 9, the incomprehensbile Talking Heads musical, featuring a wildly-overacting John Goodman and wildly-disconnected David Byrne.
Films I've not seen that I hope to: "End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones," Feb. 3, the long-delayed doc on the late punk pioneers; and "Moog: A Documentary About the Mad Scientist of the Synthesizer," the name of which says it all.
Even as we note that the films are free, it's impossible to go to the Halo and not have a drink and even more impossible to Euclid Records and not pick up a record, or 10.
Aw, man, True Stories is da bomb!

how can you pick the dandy's over bjm? not if you were the last dandy on earth! just kidding of course - watching that documentary is like watching a car wreck. the long slow decline of bjm's anton newcombe makes you want to look away but you just can't...

BJM vs. Dandays: If the Brian Jonestown Massacre had Zia McCabe in the band, I'd like them better. Crushville City, yo!
