October 1. My doors are open, the sun is shining, and oh, that old sun has truly retreated toward the antipodes. I slept late (for me) today, perhaps not wanting to leave the warmth of my blankets. But where I live, this will not last. Flipping through internet pages today, I ran across this image.
If you do not know who it is, you probably don't know to what the name of this blog eludes. The connection between this "character" and the Cafe Selavy is not direct, however. I do not like this photograph at all. It is worse than a photograph of an evil clown.
However, I will leave bread crumbs. Who is the photographer? Who is the model? What is the model's pseudonym? What suggestion is the pseudonym making? Which movie used the Selavy moniker as an important allusion in its setting?
If anyone gets all the way through to the end of that list, I will be greatly impressed.

It does not matter. It is only due to viewing the photograph this morning. I wonder if we can follow up with Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon?
oh oh oh
ReplyDeletea quiz.
I know the answers to 1, 2, 3
so I could probably chase the answer to the movie but alas, I would rather have known them honestly.
Fall here. I picked pumpkins from the errant pumpkin vine I found out back where I compost.
5 of them! I love pumpkins.
ok prepare to be impressed...I didn't know any of the answers but have now found all five. That was fun...thanks...guess I should go back to working now.
ReplyDeleteI'm lost? But good to get back to see what's up.
ReplyDeleteSo. . . what is the film? If you have studied Modernism, you know how wonderfully accurate the movie is. There is hardly a line that isn't an allusion or a quote from some work.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, it is pumpkin time. I will make some photos.
Tammy, I can't answer the question, but nice to hear from you.
Is it the german film, "C'est la Vie Rose"?
ReplyDeleteI've posted the answers today. Obscure stuff, I guess. I am just so steeped in the era, I think it is common knowledge.
ReplyDeleteThe film "The Moderns" isn't a great film, but I like it much. It was made for like a dollar fifty. Everyone worked basically for free.
I think that's right.
