Space Case

Just finished writing a ten page paper. So logically, I want to incorporate the hours I've slaved away writing about it more, right? Call me CRAZY. But then again, when your paper is about the history of science-fiction film and your comparing King Kong and Jurassic Park and the social commentary that is stealthily (or not so much) hidden in the plots within every science-fiction film ever made in every era of film...you get my point. But one little jewel I did come across was the classic film La Voyage Dans La Lune (The Trip to the Moon), you know the silent film with the iconic image of the man in the moon? Anyway, I realized that it was actually a rather fashionable film even today and, low and behold, I realized many outfits could be put together using this film as inspiration. But since I am actually writing a post based on a very strenuous paper I just wrote, maybe I am losing my mind. Just call me a lost cause.

But feast your eyes nonetheless:

  1. Hi there,
    As an ex film student - i appreciated this shout out and pic! Trip to the Moon and an Dali's Un Chien Andalou will always stand out in my mind as far as early cinema goes!

    I actually miss writing comparative film critiques...yikes, I can't believe I just admitted that!
