There is no logical consistency with how I think about spending money. I'll hum and haw about spending 10 for a new lightbulb for my car interior light and then spend 9 on a stupid cocktail. i'm the exact same way. it's all about perceived value. i'll use a coupon to save $0.50 at the grocery, or use duct tape to fix something instead of spending $5 on a new part, but then i'll spend $2000 without batting an eye to see one of my favorite bands three nights in a row. --- I hope something good happens to you today Playing: Headlander |

Giant_Aspirin 02/28/24 3:35:51 PM #6 | Peeping Tom is a 1960 British psychological horror-thriller film[4] directed by Michael Powell, written by Leo Marks, and starring Carl Boehm, Anna Massey, and Moira Shearer. The film revolves around a serial killer who murders women while using a portable film camera to record their dying expressions of terror, putting his footage together into a snuff film used for his own self pleasure. Its title derives from the expression "peeping Tom", which describes a voyeur. --- I hope something good happens to you today Playing: Headlander |

and then his melodrama about movies, the bad and the beautiful. another awesome unassuming oner, around a minute and a half. great use of shadows. context is the producer and director are making some poverty row horror movie about 'cat men' (obviously a reference to jacques tourneur's cat people) the lighting / shadows were great, especially as the guy walked towards the screen in the dark with the source of light behind him. and then the cut to the girl screaming. --- I hope something good happens to you today Playing: Headlander |
