Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989)

No matter how long it is, you usually have an idea of the ending point when creating a work of fiction. Sequels can complicate this, of course, sequels with changing targets, people coming and going behind the scenes, and the general passage of time complicating the ending as originally written. In 1989, following on from the cliffhanger, the franchise could have gone anywhere, instead, it laid…

My interpretation / findings regarding TLSP: Everything You’ve Come To Expect (album)
PART 1: The Album Cover
The initial interesting thing about EYCTE is it’s album cover:
Tumblr media
The image is a photograph of Tina Turner taken from a photography session on 25 November 1969 by photographer Jack Robinson.
Tumblr media
Jack Robinson is renowned for his work in the 1960s for his photography of fashion and celebrity portraits he shot for Vogue and Vanity Fair. In 1972, he gave up photography and found a creative outlet in the designing of stained glass windows. However, what’s most prominent and most interesting to me about him is that his work preserved valuable glimpses into the New Orleans gay subculture of the 1950s. During this time, Jack fell in love with a young man named Gabriel, whom he photographed many times - often in the nude. In 1954, Robinson and Gabriel travelled to Mexico. There, Robinson captured Mexican scenes in large and medium format photographs. He also photographed his travelling companions, including Gabriel and Betty Parsons- an American artist, art dealer, collector, and lesbian well renowned for her early promotion of Abstract Expressionism.
Aswell- the album cover for EYCTE is an image of Tina Turner- well-renowned singer/songwriter who is famously known for standing up and advocating for LGBTQIA+ community and rights in times when rarely any celebrities would because as we know they were irrational cowards then unfortunately.
Anyways ;) according to interviews, Alex Turner had the photograph hanging in his kitchen, and both our Monkey and Turtle (Miles Kane) liked the image so much that they ended up using it. When they got permission to use it, the original b/w photograph was giving a goldeny / orangey / yellowish tinge- On the LGBTQIA+ flag yellow represents sunlight. Orange represents healing. Sunlight is commonly a metaphor for: the light of truth and being. And the definition of healing is: to make well again.

4 romances that will help you see the beauty in every day life
How do we learn to see beauty in everyday life? Firstly, knowing how to look and tell what we see. Paying attention. Literature helps us pay more attention to the beauty of everyday life. In this post, I will indicate 4 novels that will help you notice - and tell - improve the beauty of your life.
1- Gilead, by Marylinne Robinson.
An elderly Presbyterian pastor writes letters to his son when he is still a child. He knows he will die before the boy matures. Loving your child, you want to be known by him. Pastor John Ames talks about his life, talks to his son. But this man's identity is revealed through his attention to everyday things. He shows himself to his son, and to us, as he demonstrates his love for the reality created by God.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
2- Jayber Crow, by Wendell Berry
The main character and narrator is a barber in a small town in the interior of Kentucky. He embraces his vocation because he has managed to embrace everyday responsibilities. Jayber, orphaned by biological and then adoptive parents, needs to get back in touch with his own roots. He discovers that the meaning of his life lies in the love he devotes to those close to him. Jayber sees how everyday life anticipates the Communion of Saints.
3- A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, by Betty Smith
The narrator and character tells her childhood story. She carefully observed the love and difficulties between her parents. The hardness of the character's life is narrated along with the sweetness. Your life is very similar to ours. There is a love that affirms loved ones, despite their defects.
4- Manalive, by G. K. Chesterton
Written by one of my favorite authors, this book tells the story of Innocent Smith goes from being a traveler to becoming a pilgrim. He learns to love life in its smallest details. Smith, who was sick of life, discovers that his intellectualism was false. The restless traveler learns the meaning of pilgrimage - to Heaven, our true home. Only the pilgrim can love this life passionately.
In a previous post, I talked about the importance of reading good novels for a woman's intellectual and emotional development.. So I decided to prepare this post, with more recent novels that are not so well known or talked about in recent times. They are good stories in every sense: well-written works of art that, as a result, help us see the beauty that already exists in everyday life. I took care to select books that you can find in many languages, with recent editions and at reasonable prices. These are accessible books. I hope you can delve into each of these narratives and, from them, be able to narrate the beauty of your own life.

None are specific rare actors but I think Adam Sandler could do Tim Stoker, the late great Betty White would be an excellent late great Gertrude Robinson, and during my first completion before getting into the fandom I couldn't get Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman out of my mind for Jon and Martin. You'd have to kill me to see that though
