Fabric Sample 2

Beautiful barkcloth hippie dress found while thrifting ($2.99). Probably homemade. Seems I find a score like this once a year or so.

A, B, Cinema

I've posted collections of DVD screen-grabs before (HERE and HERE) when I've noticed images that adhere to a certain theme or motif recurring in the films I watch... This time I've gathered pics of handwritten words... but, instead, this time I'm making a guessing game out of it. Oh yes, how exciting! Uh, anyway, if you're "game" (HAHA!) guess which films the following pics are from and leave your answers as comments below. I have 2nd clues for some of them; for the remainder, I'll supply some sort of other hints. I suppose a few of these will be a cinch, especially those with character names. Okay, have at it. Sorry - there is no prize!

1) Day of Wrath

2) Fast Times at Ridgemont High

3) [this film is Japanese, and a horror film]

4) Notes on a Scandal

5) Sixteen Candles

6) [this film features Charles Bronson, and one of Jean-Pierre Melville's favorite actors]

7)

8) [this film is a loose remake, and has itself been remade loosely, and its lead actor eventually killed himself]

9) Repulsion

10) [this is a documentary, about explorers]

11) Manhunter

12) Pulp Fiction

13) [this film is about a boxer]

14) Adaptation

15) The Insider

16) The Graduate

17) [this film was made by a woman, from France]

18) [this film's title contains the main character's name, preceded by a verb]

19) Little MIss Sunshine

20) Reality Bites

21) The Big Lebowski

22) The Apartment

Artzybasheff Extras

A small set of advertising illustrations here from the great, great Boris Artzybasheff, one of my favorite - and one of the most peculiar - commercial artists of the 20th century. These were taken from the pages of Fortune magazine, circa WW2 or shortly thereafter... unfortunately I don't know the exact dates, nor do I know which companies the ads were created for. Nonetheless, it's great stuff and I eagerly await the definitive monograph of his work.
