Watching films on celluloid

If you’re lucky enough to have a cinema nearby that shows certain films on actual film stock then I can’t recommend it enough. All of the mistakes and signs of use on the film stock, that are apparent to you throughout the runtime, adds another layer of immersion to a cinema experience. No one else will see that particular showing of that particular film except for the people in that room with you at the time. One of my old drama school teachers once told me a fun little story about the gaps between each frame. He said that all those empty gaps which are only fractions of a second between frames being processed and projected are all registered in our brains when we watch a film on celluloid. He also said that our brains see these blank spaces and instinctively imagines what would fill the empty gaps so, we feel more immersed in the film as our brains try to connect these dots in front of us. I don’t know if that’s true at all, but I’d like to believe so.

Lust for life (LP) by iggy pop

every time I give this a relisten I’m always shocked by how consistently great it is as an album. Obviously, “The Idiot” gets a tonne of praise and deservedly so, and even though this album helms a lot of Iggy Pop’s most popular singles, I never see people talking about it as an album and what it does brilliantly. even with “The Idiot”, Iggy Pop was very much performing under David Bowie wing and environment- a lot of dark and brooding electronics and atmosphere which complimented Iggy well but, here he is definitively Iggy Pop. I think people forget that “punk” music (which Iggy hated the label of) doesn’t necessarily fall into a genre, more so an attitude of performance. This is proved time and time again in this album, as Iggy covers styles of hard rock, blues rock, ballads and soul- all unmistakably polished with a punk edge. Punk isn’t the music you play, just how you play it (at least I think so), and it’s so obvious that Iggy and the band just had a blast recording and performing this, they don’t take themselves seriously, if anything, poking fun at the restrictions of rock and pop songwriting in the process. Yet, the album never feels like it’s smarter than you, it’s inviting you in to feel the excitement. Such a blast of a record, if you need a pick-me-up like I did today, give this a whirl!

I wanted to be an actor and im still getting there

Been a very slow year with not much acting work at all but, last year I managed to get a line of dialogue in the last season of house of the dragon, and also filmed two seasons of a kids show for the BBC. I’m happy I stuck with this wish, even if it’s painful to continue pursuing it sometimes :)
