The Wolfen.
The 1981 horror/conservationist film Wolfen, based on the novel by Whitley Strieber, stars Albert Finney, Edward James Olmos, Gregory Hines, and Tom Noonan. All give first-rate performances, with the quirky character actor Noonan in particular providing a can’t-take-eyes-off-of-him turn as Ferguson. A movie with a switch in the hero and antagonist roles, bestowing an atypical, noteworthy moral compass upon it.

The Scott Walker.
The above are audio tracks that span a fairly large time period of Scott Walker’s remarkable body of recorded work.
And a few Walker Brothers masterpieces.
{NOTE: Revised 11/19/2019}
Scott Walker, born Noel Scott Engel, 1943, a musical artist of profound depth and originality, was (and is) a cherished figure for millions worldwide. Reclusive, enigmatic, innovative, Scott occupies a unique place in the pantheon of recording artists. Heβs also very near and dear to my own heart. He will be deeply missed.
Many will remember Scott Walkerβs sublime work with ballads; many others love his idiosyncratic, Brel-influenced blossoming into a top-notch composer and performer; still more prefer the uneasy, discomforting terrain and eerie beauty of his later recordings. Iβll remember him for all of it, for everything. Thereβs no replacing him. Weβll never see his likes again.
Memorial post here.
Crucial, unforgettable scenes & images from 3 iconic episodes: Death Wish on Tantalus Mountain; You Don’t Have to You Don’t Have To Kill To Get Rich…But It Helps; and the “Tin Idol” oriented Rest in Peace, Somebody.
{NOTE: Revised 7/6/2019.}
Great moments of boldness, discomfort, schadenfreude, vengeance, grandiosity, and (occasionally misplaced) supreme confidence, are here presented from the nearly mythical television drama Breaking Bad. Featured is actor Bryan Cranston, as Walter White, with Giancarlo Esposito as Gus Fring, and Dean Norris as Hank.
Though the series is quite, quite dark, moments of ironic humour are not uncommon, and are essential to the balancing act that elevates the show to the uppermost echelons.
