More tools and books

Another book arrived in the post. A collection of film essays by film critic Jonathan Romney (The Guardian, Sight & Sound, Time Out, currently with The Independent ). I predominantly bought newport2 176the book for a six-page essay on ‘Institute Benjamenta’ by the Brothers Quay as any writing on their work is hard to come by, however there are some interesting pieces on other works such as La Haine by Matthew Kassovitz (a film I couldn’t get enough of when I was heavily into French cinema), Dick Tracy and the aesthetics of prosthetics, Sally Potter’s Orlando, Les Nuits Fauves, Le Roman de Renard (Starewicz), The Secret Adventures of Tom Thumb (Bolex Brothers), Priit Pärn and The Lion King to mention a few.
