Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...

... you can learn from:

Nowhere (1997)

Lucifer: If you pop a zit on your forehead 

you can get blood poisoning and die, you know. 

Dark: Lucifer, you are so dumb you should 

donate your brain to a monkey science fair. 

A happy 42nd birthday to Kathleen Robertson today! I've been on a bit of a "Go back and watch Gregg Araki's movies" kick lately and Nowhere is next on the plate (I almost watched it last night but but caught up in an Alan Bates stupor instead); I probably haven't watched Nowhere since it came out (goddamn almost 20 years ago) and I'm looking forward to it. For many...

... reasons. Anyway it's getting increasingly impossible to get good clean copies of Araki's movies - he's way overdue the fancy boxed-set treatment. Come on, Criterion! Get with the picture.
