Movie in Time


Bagdad Cafe (1987) by Percy Adlon


半分忘れかけていたこの映画、改めてもう一度観た。良いねー。勝手にアメリカ映画だと思い込んでいた、、そして最初の方に出てくるこの絵!欲しい!モハベ砂漠にある実在した太陽熱発電所付近で風の強い日に本当に起こった怪現象らしい。ポスターとか無いかなー。

I almost forgot about this movie, so I watched it again last night. I thought this was an American film for some reason, but it's actually a German film. Among its mesmerizing contents, a painting that appears in the beginning caught my attention. The painting shows an unusual phenomenon that a solar power plant offten caused in the Mojave Desert. Does anyone know if the painting was reproduced as a poster?

昔からニッケルはコインとしては柔らかい方らしく、イタズラをしている方々がいるもようです。ebay等のオークションで金を払ってまでも欲しいとは思いませんが、ガイコツのは渋いなー。自分の財布に回って来たら絶対キープでしょう。

It seems American nickel coins have been made from softer metal since early 1900's and this has been provoking creative mischief for a long time. I don't think I would pay hundreds of dollars for them on ebay, but the ones with skulls would be definite keepers if any of them ever land in my wallet.
