Nicholas Di Genova

his website bio reads, "Nicholas was born in 1981. He lives
and works in Toronto." short and sweet, but what it leaves
out is... 'he's awesome'.

La Blogothèque's Take Away Shows

whether it's Liars and Tapes N' Tapes using the inside walls
of
an elevator and a foosball table (respectively) as drums,
or the
stripped down, organic a cappella harmonies of
Fleet Foxes
and Grizzly Bear, these voyeuristic (and, at times,
down-right claustrophobic) videos ("short films"?) are fer-seriously
worth a fine-tooth combing.

Dick Shawn in It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World

I love, love, love, love this movie. Just watched it again yesterday
for the gazillionth time.
If you've never seen it, rent it, Netflix queue
it, whatever. just see it.


In this clip, Dick Shawn (who you might remember as the lead in
"Springtime for Hitler" in the original The Producers) is oblivious
to a ringing phone as he acts like a complete maniac with his
facially stoic go-go-ing gal pal.
