The Marx Bros in Duck Soup

HAHAHAAAAAA-A-A-A!

The Legendary Marx Brothers

Been watching a couple of the Marx Brother's movies today. Have one of their box sets. Was in fits of laughter at some of their antics. They were so talented in their own crazy way. My favourite film by far at the mo is 'Duck Soup'. I've liked the Marx Brothers since I was a kid with my favourite being Harpo. And even though these films are really old, they're still extremely fun to watch. My favourite quotes by Groucho so far include... "Go and never darken my towels again!" Classic.

Here's another pic I like...

Harpo and those scissors! That mischievous look on his face when he snips everything in sight is just so hilarious.

The Young Victoria

"Her Destiny belonged to an Empire

∗ my attempt at film making ∗

In 2004 I entered a competition to make a little movie with the theme of Tolkien's 'The Lord of the Rings' at a London Festival I attended. I chose to base it on my favourite character from the story and movie version which was Aragorn. My film made it to the shortlist but alas I didn't win :(

But at least it was still shown on a big screen at the Festival!

which was very cool but a little scarey. I hope you like it. lol ;)

A question of Costume Design

e.g Ngila Dickson's Lord of the Rings Costume Design Sketches

e.g A costume sketch I did recently

Costume Design - Wikipedia...
.."Costume design is the design of the appearance of the characters in a theater or cinema performance. This usually involves researching and designing or choosing clothing, footwear, hats and head dresses for the actors to wear, but it may also include designing masks, makeup, wigs, underwear or other unusual forms, such as the full body animal suits worn in the musical Cats"..

Gary Thorne (head of design at RADA) recently gave me some really good advice after I completed a short course in his class at Central Saint Martins Art College here in London. He said "MAKE SURE YOU ALWAYS CARRY AROUND A NOTEBOOK!" Point taken. I look forward to catching up with him after I start at the Arcola. He's promised to pop in at some point. I hope he does. He's so humorous. He also knows the designer of the show I'm helping out with which is pretty cool too.

The Spirit by Frank Miller

Looks like a good movie. Great to see Gabriel Macht in such a cool leading role...

Movie trailer here

Definitely gonna have to see this! hehe!
