Miguel Sanchez Posted June 4, 2023 Author Share Posted June 4, 2023 (edited) Week 22 update Warm weather makes you live longer. But apparently that warm weather came too late for filmmaker Kenneth Anger: Kenneth Anger, underground film-maker and Hollywood Babylon author, dies aged 96 | Film | The Guardian Quote Kenneth Anger, the artist and film-maker whose work offered a distinctively radical mix of paganism and homoeroticism, has died aged 96. Art gallery Sprüth Magers confirmed his death, saying: “Through his kaleidoscopic films, which combine sumptuous visuals, popular music soundtracks, and a focus on queer themes and narratives, Anger laid the groundwork for the avant garde art scenes of the later 20th century, as well as for the visual languages of contemporary queer and youth culture.” Anger’s films, which included Fireworks (1947), Inauguration of the Pleasure Dome (1954), Scorpio Rising (1963) and Lucifer Rising (1972), made him a key figure in the counterculture over four decades, and later a hero to subsequent generations of film-makers grappling with similar themes. While he never found commercial success through his films, his book Hollywood Babylon – a compendium of often sleazy and largely unverifiable gossip about the film industry – became famous after first being published in 1959; it was followed by a sequel in 1984. Apparently "He told the Guardian in 2010 that he had a third instalment of Hollywood Babylon completed, but was unable to publish it due to a chapter of material on Tom Cruise and Scientology." Bet that would have been good. Anger died at 96 so he's worth 29 Base Points for @Bert Raccoon with a Solo Shot taking that to 79 points. As a result, the standings look like this: 1.

Would've been a different fillum if TS had played the Bill Murray role. 79 is a good innings for a guy who lived, ahem, the R'n'R lifestyle - will give Thank Christ For the Bomb a spin sometime over the next few daze. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
