Dr. Strangeperle 4/18
This parody cartoon or still was created by IWR for the PBS series
America at a Crossroads which aired last night (4/17/2007). The
opening of the Richard Perle documentary
The Case for War: In Defense of Freedom featured this Doctor Strangelove
parody cartoon. BTW, that's all you need to see unless you want to get
cheesed by Perle's BS. ;-)
Is Perle the Prince of Darkness

Louise Brooks on YouTube
Louise Brooks [Bio
1906-1985]
Thanks to Netflix, I have now seen several Louise Brooks movies. Pandora's
Box her was greatest movie, which was directed by G. W. Pabst in Berlin.
It's now one of my favorite movies of all time. The close ups of Lulu
(Louise Brooks) are simply enchanting. Her timeless beauty and talent
as a silent era actress are truly remarkable. My eyes were just glued
to the screen by her beautiful expressions, bright eyes, bob hair cut, long
smooth neck and back.
Louise Brooks
PANDORA'S BOX -
Lulu's "Mr Brightside"
This is a video taken from clips of Pandora's Box, which I think is quite
well done. I also like the music by the Killers.
Louise Brooks in
Berlin
This is a clip from the documentary "Louise Brooks: Looking for Lulu", which
is a pretty decent film about Louise Brooks.

This a video of several sacrilegious colorized photos of Miss Brooks.

Fast forward to 1984 and the Talking Heads innovative concert movie
"Stop Making Sense", and watch them cover Al Green (above).

Evelyn De Morgan
[Bio
1855-1919]
Evelyn De Morgan was an English Pre-Raphaelite painter. Evelyn painted
Flora (below) featuring her favorite model, the stunningly beautiful Jane
Hales. Flora was strongly influenced by
Botticelli's
Primavera and was even painted in Florence. I think Jane Hales
would also be a perfect model for the
Birth of
Venus, with her turned head and long neck.

Taiso Yoshitoshi [Bio
1839–1892]
I have blogged Yoshitoshi before, but yesterday I went to an
exhibit of his 100
of his woodblock prints at the
Asian
Art Museum in San Francisco, and I was very impressed. It was great to see his
colorful artwork
close up and read the curator's comments describing each illustration.
Unlike his famous
Ukiyo-e
counterparts, who focused mainly on scenery (Hiroshige and Hokusai) or
beauties (Utamaro), Yoshitoshi's depicted some the strangest folktales
and characters from Japanese history.
Mount Yoshino Midnight-moon:
Iga no Tsubone (1885-92)

East Asia Ads (Tea Time)
This is a great collection of mostly Japanese ads from the 20s, 30s, 40s,
50s. Several of these ads feature the Japanese movie actress of the 40s and
50s the beautiful
Setsuko
Hara, who played the "eternal virgin" in
Ozu's Noriko Trilogy. She was also considered the ideal woman by
both Japanese men and women during her reign in the golden age of
Japanese cinema.
