I really need to watch Performance again. It’s been years since its screening on Moviedrome.
The film still packs a punch 🙂 Anyway, thanks for dropping by 🙂
I’ve just read a review that describes Demon Seed as “the kind of movie that the BBC used to show as a prime-time, 9pm, Saturday night treat in the early 80’s.” It sounds right up my alley!
Good grief, I don’t think I’ve seen ANY of these. Well, there’s time now to watch them!
I should start with Performance since Mick Jagger is in it. It sounds like fun.
As with the late Nicolas Roeg, the late Donald Cammell is another great transgressive filmmaker. Performance probably is the best place to start since Mick Jagger is in it though Demon Seed is another choice, but go either way 🙂 Anyway, thanks for dropping by 🙂
Thanks John. How about you? What are your days like ?

I guarantee that it is up your alley 🙂
It’s good to hear from you John. In the current climate films and the blogging world are a welcome diversion.
