The Black Sleep...

19th century neuro scientific research performed by an evil surgeon with on-screen exploratory neurosurgery and extreamly unconvincing lunatics. Yay. Thank you Obscure Hollow for leading me to this 1956 black and white treasure.

Potential Career Two: Biologist/Research Scientist and Academic


 

Apologies...

I have just been reading over some older posts and have realised that they are rife with spelling mistakes, grammatical errors and inconsistency. I assure you I intend to remedy this asap.

Pshyco...

I watched the 1998 psycho remake last night; not at all as good as the original, not that I expected it to be. In truth I found it difficult to watch, tedious and lengthy, despite it being a shot for shot recreation of the original. It had none of the intrigue or charm of the original and I found some of the performances irritating, despite my usually liking the actors. Hitchcock remains the undisputed master, of course.

A bit of borrowing...

It may have come to you attention, as it has come to mine, that allot of my visual content lately has been derived from the magnificent blog, she walks softly. This has been largely unintentional hence my lack of attribution up till now, but I find our interests so similar and the visual content so fascinating that it has become something of a guilty pleasure of mine. Hence my picture file is filling with images from the archives of Dana's blog and when I look through them for inspiration they tend to stand out a bit. Just thought you ought to know...and now a little bit more.
