The Beauty Inside

Lovely short film from Sundance winner Drake Doremus about a person who wakes up differently every day. Beautifully shot, with a great performance from Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

30 mins, split over 6 episodes. Ignore the fact it's funded by The Man.

Hi-Yo, Poster!

Intrigued to see what direction this new Lone Ranger film is going to take the masked man. Trailer coming soon up at Apple now Kemosabe. Looks very much like a film from the Pirates Of The Caribbean team, could be fun if they manage to stop if bloating over two hours...

Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee

Title says it all really, except that @JerrySeinfeld is the man behind this interview/comedy web series. Kramer and Jerry in the final episode alone makes it worthwhile.

Trailer Park: Dust Up

This new desert showdown may well be from the post-Tarantino school of retromania, but it's still kind of fun to see people making goofy B-movies.

Sonic Youth: Guitars & Future

great footage of @LeeRanaldo with his new band, and some thoughts on SY's future. Plus a story on @Pitchfork describing how they're slowly getting their stolen collection of custom guitars back; love the line about how 

"The band has long destroyed their guitars' value by stripping them down to their essential elements, ripping out extraneous electronics, switches, and the tone knob.."

As a bonus, here's the video for Death Valley '69; missed this the first time around, love seeing videos for the first time some 27 years too late ...
