Les Amants Réguliers (Regular Lovers)
Philippe Garrel, 2005, 178 min., 35mm

“This tender portrait of late-1960s French youth stars Louis Garrel as François, a 20-year-old Parisian struggling through the fires of revolutionary promise and its smoldering remains. Written and directed by his father, the celebrated auteur Philippe Garrel, the film begins with a handful of gangling young men sharing a pipe filled with hashish and talking of poetry. It is early 1968 in Paris, moments before the revolution or, rather, moments before that nearly forgotten flashpoint when cities across the world lighted up with radical promise and burning cars” – Manohla Dargis, NY TIMES

Krishnamacharya – 1938 0

Sri Tirumala Krishnamacharya (1888–1989) was the teacher of both BKS Iyengar & K. Pattabhi Jois, which means that basically he’s responsible for the vast majority of the Hatha Yoga that’s currently practiced in the west. He’s fifty in this video.

Belong – October Language 0

belong.jpg

Warm fuzz evoking comparisons to Fennesz and Tim Hecker, New Orleans’ Belong have turned the sticky heat of the South into something aurally tangible, at least to these ears. I’ve had October Language on pretty heavy rotation the past few months and it’s still melting my brain.
