Tarantino used to revere Godard. Until Godard called him a ‘faquin’ (coward).
Band of Outsiders (1964)
"I am not really a big fan of Jean-Luc Godard anymore. I think Godard is kind of like Frank Frazetta- you get into him for a while, and he’s like your hero for a little bit. You start drawing shit like him, and then you outgrow.”
--- Quentin Tarantino

Marjorie Cameron died on this day in 1995. Pictured here in Kenneth Anger’s INAUGURATION OF THE PLEASURE DOME. As an avowed occultist, she was intrinsic to the McCarthy era L. A. underground art scene - and was midwife to the birth of the U.S. space program.

Landed a gig writing copy when I was young. Wrote a commercial introducing Mastercard to France. Reached out to directors and landed Andrey Konchalovsky. After a long casting he asked me to be the dude diving under the plane. So we went to Texas and shot it.

We shot in Egypt four times times over the last year. Befriended these street dogs on the first trip, and they never left. The cat showed up on the third trip. We feed them, got them spayed/neutered. My fixer sends me photos of them every day.

Rudy Wurlitzer & Sam Peckinpah between srtups (the beginning shoot-out sequence) on PAT GARRET AND BILLY THE KID.
As a young kid visiting the set, I couldn’t have imagined the effect that film would have on me. Still does.

Beloved grim realist auteur Aki Kaurismaki quipped in a 2011 Guardian interview: “The only way for mankind to get out of this misery is to kill the one percent who own everything. The one percent who have put us in the position where humanity has no value.”

“The modern author has his hands full in trying to understand, describe and then make credible much of American reality. It stupefies, it sickens, it infuriates and finally it is even a kind of embarrassment to one’s own meager imagination.”

Years ago, a former colleague phoned me to ask if I wanted in on kidnapping a Thai general’s daughter. I declined.
That story is included in SEA OF DARKNESS - a doc about the infamous Indonesian surf camp (G-land) - where I worked for 3 summers.

Another pic of my step-father … sideways in the go-cart he built. The Triumph 500 motorcycle engine was probably overkill, but why not? I crashed the thing through a wood fence when I was a kid. This pic is from way before that. Somewhere in LA.

Thomas Edison’s Black Maria studio - West Orange, New Jersey. Films were shot using the patented Kinetograph. Light came courtesy of the sun, issuing in through a retractable roof. The building was mounted on a turntable in order to keep a constant sun angle.

G-Land. We abandoned that first camp for winter,. Returning the next summer it was overrun with rats. Which we culled, piling the corpses back in the jungle where they were eaten by tigers. At the end of the season, we burned the camp. Rebuilt it the following year.

So … filmmaking means stolen IP and shit creativity?
People aren't taking the "everyone will be filmmakers" seriously enough.
I made this 20s trailer in 15mins with an OpenAI Sora clip, David Attenborough's voice on Eleven Labs, and sampling some nature music from Youtube on iMovie

Happy birthday to my late stepfather. Airing out his Matchless in the ‘50s. He was a judoka, had a dojo with Lebell. Rode dirt bikes with Ekins, Marvin, McQueen, etc. Raced cars, did stunts in movies. Died a few years back at age 91 after an action-packed life. My hero.

Cassavetes: ‘Did you ever notice how in Hollywood movies even the villains are charming? But we all are crazy. I mean it! We’re never nutty on film. That’s the trouble. On the screen everyone is perfect. They’re a perfect heavy, they’re a perfect good guy. That’s boring.’

G-Land. Fast Eddie Rothman & Mike Boyum. The swell was pounding out at Moneytrees - as loud as we’d ever heard it. That morning I broke my prized Brewer on my second wave. I paddled back out on one of Raz’s boards - a 7’4” Parrish and got one of the longest barrels of my life.

Jean Pierre Gorin found my buried childhood strongbox up in Latigo Canyon, borrowed a tab (purple microdot) that sent him ragdolling back to the May ’68 barriers where he grabbed Godard by the narrow shoulders: “You gotta get that head straight, man. You’ve got to get meaner.”

A woman at the bar from San Fran. In her 70s. She took a fall on Naxos three weeks ago, broke her hip. Got a replacement in Athens. Took a few days to recover and is continuing on. Just getting up the hill to the bar takes effort. She now gets free drinks for life.

Ashley Bickerton’s birthday was a few days ago. Thinking back to high school daze - surfing Pipeline. A small plane buzzing the lineup, passing very low. Several of us sunk our boards, shot them up as the plane flew over. Contact! It became an incident. We all walked. RIP Ash
