Be Kind Rewind (Michel Gondry, 2008).

[cantsayidont]

Haterating and hollerating in the 1950s:

SUDDEN FEAR (1952): Inventive but unsatisfying thriller about a middle-aged playwright and heiress (Joan Crawford) who discovers that her new husband (Jack Palance) and his ex-girlfriend (Gloria Grahame) are plotting to do away with her, and decides to concoct her own elaborate trap for the would-be killers, which doesn't go as planned. Palance is well-cast, walking an interesting line between charm and sociopathy, and the film gives Crawford one of her better '50s roles, but the script fails to pay off its own clever plot twists while allowing Crawford too many opportunities for her customary histrionics — particularly in a pair of over-the-top dream/fantasy sequences and in a crucial scene where the heroine has to express, without dialogue, that she's having second thoughts about her own plan. The finale, while undeniably tense and featuring striking nighttime cinematography by Charles B. Lang Jr., also feels like it belongs in a completely different movie.

THE GIRL NEXT DOOR (1953): Bright, attractively staged Fox musical (with two animated interludes) about the burgeoning romance between a successful stage star (June Haver) and her handsome new next-door neighbor (Dan Dailey), a comic strip artist and widower with a young son (Billy Gray) who's none too happy at this new competition for his father's attention. Haver and Dailey are great, and their easy repartee is very appealing. It's also interesting to see Dennis Day outside of his more familiar role as Jack Benny's idiot stooge. However, Billy Gray's character never quite rings true; there's no real reason for Joey to dislike the charming, good-humored Jeannie other than childish jealousy, so the story depends on his eventually getting over it rather than on Jeannie winning him over, which might have been more fun.

A SUMMER PLACE (1959): Overwrought Delmer Daves adaptation of a Sloan Wilson novel about two one-time lovers (Richard Egan and Dorothy McGuire), now unhappily married to others (Constance Ford and Arthur Kennedy), who decide to divorce their respective spouses so they can finally get married, only to face endless angst because their college-age kids (Sandra Dee and Troy Donahue) are also in love, in A Society That Just Doesn't Understand™. The story might have been considered daringly blunt by the standards of 1958–59, but to modern eyes, it succeeds mostly in putting the "turgid" in "dramaturgy." The script and direction are so unrelentingly heavy-handed that the actors seem like they're mining coal, with only Constance Ford (whose character is an unmitigated bitch) allowed to be anything other than laboriously tormented.

The Chilling (1989)

My rating: 4/10

I guess they were going for a Return of the Living Dead type thing, but unfortunately their commitment to the bit was lacking, so we mostly just get a bunch of actors in tinfoil suits wandering around in the dark.

Rosali Live Preview: 4/18, Empty Bottle, Chicago

Isn't it remarkable that Destroyer's Dan Bejar, the king of obtuseness, managed to so deftly nail his description of Bite Down (Merge), the fourth album from indie rock musician Rosali? Bejar referred to Rosali's instrumental and lyrical evolution as sporting a "hard-won ease;" I couldn't help but come back to that phrase when listening to standout track "Hills on Fire". As Rosali Middleman gently sings validations like, "That color looks so good on you," her backing band, David Nance's Mowed Sound, hint at something darker, James Schroeder's guitars growing increasingly scraggly. Eventually, Middleman sings, "I can be hellish and awful, too / Anger built in my youth." It's a moment where you realize that Bite Down shows Rosali as wise in her reflective realism, while still avoiding cynicism and leaving room for hope.

Bite Down was written after Rosali moved from her long-time home of Philadelphia to North Carolina; it concerns physical and emotional change while remaining astonishingly present. That interplay is reflected in both her words and the band's instrumentation. Take "Rewind", an easygoing, earnest, romantic country rock song that sees the silver lining in bad times. Eventually, the band's subtle freak-outs yield effects that sound like someone attempting to whoosh back in time but being held back and reminded to live in the moment. On "Slow Pain", Middleman dives head first into her angst, atop steady, pattering drums from Kevin Donahue and Schroeder's restrained lead guitar. "Have you seen my grief? Hold it so I don't spill out," she sings. The song eventually lets you into Middleman's head with piercing guitars resisting being muted, as she describes, "Killing time with the slow pain." And the title track fights despair with Ted Bois' groovy keyboard lines and Megan Siebe's warm cello, Middleman reaching out for help: "I can't seem to bring myself ashore / Put aside your foolish pride / To move beyond the rising tide."

Sure, there are a few songs on Bite Down that center on moods more static: ennui ("Hopeless"), pain ("Is It Too Late"), even horniness (earworm opener "On Tonight"). But it all comes together on the building, burning closer "May It Be on Offer". "And I do wonder / And waste my life / No, I don't wonder / If I waste my life," Middleman sings, clarifying that she knows that "[sitting] for hours / Gazing at the light" is what most would consider bed rotting. As the song progresses, though--keyboard humming, guitars fluttering--Middleman's outlook is brighter. "There is hope upon me / There is reason to try," she sings, a hymnal, or maybe a lullaby, singing herself not to sleep but back to that hard-won ease.

Rosali plays the Empty Bottle tonight, with a backing band of Nance, Schroeder, and Donahue. Local indie rockers Fran open. Doors at 8 PM, show at 9. Tickets still available at time of publication.

Discharge Petition for H.R. 7152, the Civil Rights Act of 1964

Record Group 233: Records of the U.S. House of RepresentativesSeries: General Records

This item, H.R. 7152, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, faced strong opposition in the House Rules Committee. Howard Smith, Chairman of the committee, refused to schedule hearings for the bill. Emanuel Celler, Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, attempted to use this discharge petition to move the bill out of committee without holding hearings. The petition failed to gain the required majority of Congress (218 signatures), but forced Chairman Smith to schedule hearings.

88th CONGRESS. House of Representatives No. 5 Motion to Discharge a Committee from the Consideration of a RESOLUTION (State whether bill, joint resolution, or resolution) December 9, 1963 To the Clerk of the House of Representatives: Pursuant to Clause 4 of Rule XXVII (see rule on page 7), I EMANUEL CELLER (Name of Member), move to discharge to the Commitee on RULES (Committee) from the consideration of the RESOLUTION; H. Res. 574 entitled, a RESOLUTION PROVIDING FOR THE CONSIDERATION OF THE BILL (H.

Day 94: Kennedy Meadows North. 1630 miles to the Northern Terminus.

This last section of the trail was hard. Less big mountains, sure, but a lot of creek crossings. Yosemite is might be beautiful, but it sure is wet.

We left the big group behind, so it’s just me, Peter, and Lt. Dan again. Going from the town of Mammoth to Tuolumne Meadows was pretty easy. Donahue Pass wasn’t much of a challenge. I even had the time to take a little detour, and go see Devil’s Postpile, a national monument.

Tuolumne Meadows and Yosemite in general we’re really cool. Huge granite domes, beautiful rivers and water falls, little cabins in the woods, all kinds of awesome stuff. I’ve got too many pictures!

We’re at the time of year when there’s still a lot of snow, but it’s hot enough that it’s melting really fast, and the rivers are all swollen. This makes the crossings a little bit tricky sometimes.

We’ve had a lot of struggles these last 70 miles. There weren’t anymore huge passes, but there were a bunch of smaller ones (Benson pass, Seavey pass, and Dorothy Lake pass) that were still physically challenging to go over, even though they weren’t technically challenging. Lt. Dan lost his sunglasses in a creek, which can be dangerous for snow blindness. Everyone’s feet were wet all the time, which is really not fun. There was also a lot of up and down in this last section. Go up somewhere really high, go down, and then go up again. Thankfully, it seems like it’s gonna get easier for us. Hopefully less snow on the ground in our future. The next stop is South Lake Tahoe, which will be really cool. I’ve been there before, so it’ll be interesting to return as a hiker. Until then, peace!

Series/Pairing: Open Heart - Tobias Carrick x f!MC (Samantha Carlson)

Disclaimer: Most characters belong to PB, Samantha is sort of mine

Other Characters: Bryce Lahela, Sienna Trinh

Rating / Warnings: PG / none

Summary: After Samantha and Tobias break up, Tobias has regrets.

Comments/Notes: This is an AU. Tobias and Sami are (probably) very happy right now. @openheartappreciationweek Day 5 - Alternate Universe

Word count: ~375 

Sienna and Bryce stood in front of Samantha’s desk. “You’re coming to Donahue’s with us.”

Sami shook her head. “I’m not. I’m staying here and finishing up paperwork.”

Bryce moved around and sat himself on her desk, effectively blocking her view of her computer screen. “You spend more time here anymore than…”

“Than I used to when you started your internship,” Ethan’s voice drifted from the door of her office. “I am telling you that you need to get out of the hospital for a while.”

“If your boss is telling you that, you really need a break.”

“I’m not going to Donahue’s.”

Bryce and Sienna glanced at each other before he spoke. “Actually, you can. Tobias is going… somewhere else tonight.”

Samantha looked at Sienna. “Does he have a date?”

“I don’t know.”

“He doesn’t. He has a poker game that I am late for,” Ethan answered, checking his watch.

Sami logged off her computer, and stood up. “To Donahue’s, I guess.”

Two hours later, Tobias pushed opened the door to the bar. He looked throughout the room trying to find her. He spotted Bryce with some of the surgeons shooting darts.

Jackie and Aurora were talking to a couple of guys at the bar.

Sienna was at a table by herself.

Tobias frowned. Surely her friends wouldn’t bring her here to desert her. Maybe Ethan was wrong and she had decided not to come. He shook his head, that was unlikely. Tobias headed to Sienna, hopefully she would be willing to let him know where Sami had gone.

“Sienna, the next round is on me.” Sienna’s phone dropped to the table at the sound of Tobias’ voice. Her eyes moved to the dance floor before refocusing on Tobias, but he had caught the movement of her head.

“That’s that new orthopedic surgeon. Dr. Elliott.”

Sienna sipped her wine. “Dan went to Stanford with Bryce.”

Dan leaned down to Samantha. “He’s heading this way. Do you want to talk to him?”

“Can I cut in?” Both men looked at Samantha waiting for her answer to Tobias’ question.

“Not tonight. I have an early meeting and Dan said he’d drive me home. See you tomorrow, Dr. Carrick.” Tobias was left standing alone in the dance floor as his girlfriend, his ex-girlfriend, walked off with someone else.
