Artisan James's Reel

Analyzing a Scene -- Tristan's Revenge / Legends of the Fall (1994)

Walking out of that tent like a boss! -- Such a great scene ...let alone a criminally underrated movie & probably Pitt's best performance to date. -- Just look at the way the Camera slowly pans up on the Germans ...almost like it's Tristan's P.O.V. (although it's not) ...to go along with that haunting theme as it builds (the late & great James Horner) ...as well as the LOOK in Pitt's Eyes... Love the film... One of my favorites of the 90s! -- So Powerful.

Leaving Town...

When it comes to the title of this video, I would much prefer "Run Away" from The Real McCoy! Only this one was on the radio!!

The Cars - Good Times Roll

A song deemed suitable for New Year's Eve...

Gerard McMann - Cry Little Sister

Always had a spot for this film, possibly my favorite vampire movie to date... although I really like Interview with the Vampire too!

VID#7 - A Quick Clip...

One effective way to introduce your antagonist is to have them do something extraordinary, instead of standing around in say some long dialogue scene. But instead, something physical, something visceral, and something that will both captivate and intimidate the protagonist, and will make it so that both the protagonist and the audience will want to know more...

Bush - Greedy Fly

One of my favorites. Cool Note: If anyone knows this band's history, the music video for this song was inspired by the movie "Seven" (Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman) and was directed by Marcus Nispel... The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2003 ... https://youtu.be/6FExyoAh6Ng

VID#6 - A Winter Tale...

Press Play...

Simon & Garfunkel - Mrs. Robinson

Driving home during an increasing snowstorm ...on the freeway. Thick and wet, accumulating snow blasting the windshield. Wipers getting a workout ...about to pass in between two snow plows... My Dad thought I was asleep in the backseat, along with my sister, but no... we were awake, we were scared, especially when about to pass in between the plows... CHRISTMAS 1994!
