Magic

Olivia Newton-John

I felt some good vibes were needed in light of the fires that surround the city of Los Angeles and continue to burn. We have to believe together united we are magic!

"You have to believe we are magic
Nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive, destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive for you
I'll bring all your dreams alive for you" - Magic, Olivia Newton-John

Indeed...

Cruising

On February 25, Arrow Video takes a walk on the wild side with the controversial and erotic thriller, Cruising, making its world premiere on 4K UHD. Director William Friedkin (The Exorcist) cast Al Pacino (The Godfather) in a riveting film that sparked protests upon its initial release in 1980. The Limited Edition release features a brand new 4K restoration from the original 35mm camera negative in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible), and hours of special features.

A serial killer is preying on the gay men that frequent the underground leather and S&M bars in New York City’s meatpacking district. Detective Steve Burns (Al Pacino, Serpico) is assigned to go under deep cover because he resembles the victims who have been dismembered or stabbed to death in cheap hotels around the Village. A shop owner (Powers Boothe, Red Dawn) explains the handkerchief color code to Burns, who hopes the colors in his back pockets will lure out the killer at the clubs or in the park after midnight. His investigation leads him into shadowy spaces that make him question everything from his pursuit of a murderer to his relationship with his girlfriend (Nancy Allen, Raiders of the Lost Ark). Can he truly return to his normal life when this intense investigation ends? Cruising also features Paul Sorvino (Goodfellas), James Remar (The Warriors), and Joe Spinell (Rocky). 

The special features include two vintage audio commentaries with William Friedkin; audio commentary with musicians from the soundtrack; an alternate music score by Pentagram Home Video; deleted scenes; alternative footage; censored material reels; video interviews with actors Karen Allen, Randy Jurgensen, Mike Starr, Jay Aconvone, Mark Zecca; an interview with the manager of the Mineshaft; a visual essay on the hanky-codes with David McGillivray; a short film on the protests; vintage features on the movie; William Friedkin at BeyondFest 2022; an image gallery; the theatrical trailer; teasers; TV Spots; and a 120-page perfect-bound collector’s book with essays, interviews and vintage articles.

Devastated

The Pacific Palisades

As a resident of Los Angeles and LA County I am devastated at the enormous loss the people of this city have suffered at the hands of the California Wildfires.

It destroyed a whole community single handedly the Pacific Palisades. This community was established in 1921. It was nestled on the Pacific Coast and had amazing ocean views.

This was a place of beauty that people called home. The residents that lived there are completely at a loss. 

It's existed for 104 years and took only hours to destroy it. This should give you some perspective on how truly horrible this disaster is.

While I'm not going to get political about the situation. Suffice it to say the other fires that sprang up in non related areas are suspect of arson at this point.

Today is going to be a long one with the firefighters still battling the blazes natural and otherwise.

Please send them your energy and strength.

Thank You.

Couple Alert!

French Kissing In The USA
Mike Tyson &Annabelle

Do you recall the time when Mike Met Annabelle? Neither do I, but apparently boxer Mike Tyson hooked up with demon dolly Annabelle for a rendezvous.

Personally I think they should make a rom com starring this pair, it would be a real killer of a movie.

This premise is ripe with endless possibilities.

Carpe Diem!
