Happy St. Paddy's Day, everyone!
I celebrated on Saturday with some Guinness, some Jameson, and my annual reverence for Phil Joanou's State of Grace, which I just love more every time I see it. And I've watched it every year for maybe 20 years.
Also, if you haven't heard, Flogging Molly frontman Dave King has some health issues that forced the band to cancel their most recent tour, so maybe stop by their Bandcamp and plunk down some silver for one of their albums. Mr. Brown recently recommended the live 2006 Alive Behind the Green Door, and I can attest that it's fantastic.
Watch:
David Cronenberg's The Shrouds opens in select cities on April 18th and nationwide a week later. Really looking forward to this one.
This trailer doesn't reveal too much, but it also doesn't 100% whet my appetite for the film. That doesn't mean anything, though, as just the fact that Cronenberg has a new film on the immediate horizon has me excited. I really liked Crimes of the Future; actually felt like it was the first truly transgressive film I'd seen in a theatre in a very long time. Not sure if this will be a similar experience, but it doesn't matter. Cronenberg is Cronenberg, end of story.
