Howdy friends, how goes?

Hope you can make it for the Sexual Personae Livestream on Sunday at 2PM EST

Much will be discussed. Would love to see you there.

Thank you so much for all your continued support.

Meanwhile...

1. Book coming soon - The Turn of the Screw by Henry James

A famous short Gothic novel by the American-British author Henry James.

It's a ghost story about a governess appointed to look after two children in a haunted house.

2. Bela Lugosi interview

A terrific staged interview with Lugosi from 'Intimate Interviews'.

Slips into the Dracula role when discussing how much the part depressed him.

3. Wax Werk by Ishmael Ensemble

First thing I've heard from the U.K. Saxophonist Pete Cunningham.

Love how the track escalates from chill grooving electronic to drum and saxophone cacophony.

4. Kid Saves Print of Albrecht Dürer's 'Death, the Knight, and the Devil'

Somebody give that guy an award.

That Dürer engraving is one of my favorites.

5. Angel Heart

Directed by Alan Parker.

Mickey Rourke plays a hardboiled private detective in 1950's Brooklyn named Harry Angel, led down to New Orleans while working for a strange individual, played by Robert de Niro, going by the name of Louis Cyphre.

LouCyphr. Y'get it.

Rewatched recently, better than I remembered.
