Slow cooking a ragu, drinking double IPA and watching The Vikings. I couldn't cope with so much back-slapping, roaring, salivating blokeiness. Oh, and Tony Curtis's pretty little legs seem completely out of place.
"Wales? That slag heap? It's not worth one night's raid!"
(Don't get me wrong: The Vikings is a guilty pleasure and I watch it every time it's on)
People in films don't bang two opponents' heads together in a fight as much as they used to.
Janet Leigh's breasts are ludicrous in this film. 1950s conical bras.

#NowPlaying The season demands Scriabin's (unfinished) 'Mysterium'. This "cataclysmic opus" was to designed "to end the world and its present race of men" and the 1st and only performance would "annihilate space & melt reality" and replace the human race with "nobler beings".
Scriabin planned the multisensory synaesthetic performance to be in a specially-built temple in the Himalayan foothills. "Bells suspended from the clouds in the sky would summon the [many 1000s of] spectators from all over the world" & seat them according to spiritual advancement
Seeing as “The universe would be completely destroyed by [the performance], and mankind plunged into the holocaust of finality” it's probably a good thing that Scriabin died in 1915, aged 43, and didn't get to realise his plans.
Where has the time gone? I first posted what would become a Scarfolk image (I hadn't yet come up with the @Scarfolk name or blog concept) on Facebook 7 years ago.
I found these early attempts to find an identity/logo for @Scarfolk, which was originally called The Public Information Bureau of Great Britain. The initial idea had been to parody several public info campaigns in just 1 poster. It turned into 100s of images + two books (so far)
I think I've found the 1st proto @Scarfolk image from 2011, which I eventually recycled for one of the 1st Scarfolk posts two years later.
