My DVD of the moment is an out-of-print widescreen edition of David Lynch's "Dune." It does feature a pre-pubescent Alicia Witt, as well as the second most unlikely actor to ever play a messiah figure after Keanu Reeves, but I'm still a sucker for it. And how can this be?

The latter bills the show as "Jandek plus special guests". One fan E-mailed Anthology Film Archives about the New York show and received the following in reply: "I can indeed confirm the performance.

So then, post some stimulating thoughts about one of your underachieving indie-pop bands, ya big whiner. :p A few nights ago, I saw a good-sized chunk of the most inexplicable film: "Con Air." One of the most godawful, nonsensical, explosion- explosion-explosion action films I've ever eavesdropped on, and yet the cast included... Nicholas Cage. John Malkovich. John Cusack. Steve Buscemi. Ving Rhames. What the HELL was such a great pack of actors doing in this crap?? I mean, sure, few top-class actors have sold out as badly as post-"Leaving Las Vegas" Cage, but jeeeez.....
